This is a Peter's walking tour as it was when it all started in 1996. A backpackers' hit ever since, it is a tour without a fixed itinerary, where the walkers and the guide work out a route right before the start.
DO WHAT OTHER TOURISTS DON'T: step off Nevsky Prospect, walk through quiet side lanes, peek into courtyards of old apartment buildings, sample local cafes and shops, ride packed trolley-buses (highly optional). Enjoy the city through the eyes of a St Petersburg resident.
DISCOVER bridges, rivers and canals of the city of Saint Peter, the grandeur of its palaces and quays, the charm of old back streets and marketplaces of the 300 year old Russian Imperial Capital.
LEARN about the city: Historical facts, from key dates to personal stories of monarchs and artists, nobles and commoners; city legends from Peter the Great and Catherine's times to Lenin and post-Soviet era.
TRAVERSE the city by foot and public transport: tour may involve several metro and bus rides (14-20 rubles per ride, not included).
GREAT VALUE: a five-hour walking tour for the price of three hours! So much more than just a mere list of historical dates and names, The Original Peter's Walking Tour is a headlong plunge into the cultural environment of one of the largest cities in Europe. Make the most out of your stay with the help of Peter's Walking Tours.
The tour can be led by any of the guides in our team.
Private bookings possible - inquire at info@peterswalk.com, or ask your guide.
