Eurway St Petersburg Full Day Tour

Experience the city's highlights on a pleasant guided drive around St. Petersburg. View the sights that have made St. Petersburg famous the world over.

Visit Peter and Paul Fortress and Cathedral, the splendid 18th century ecclesiastical edifice which is still the tallest building in St. Petersburg. Its spire is 122.5 meters or 401 feet tall. The Cathedral is the burial place for many of the Russian Tsars and Tsarinas.

Tours conducted on Wednesday through Sunday as well as the last Tuesday will include a visit to the Hermitage (the Winter Palace). With the possible exception of the Louvre, there is no museum in the world that rivals the Hermitage in size and quality. Its collection is so large it would take years to view it in its entirety. The collection is displayed in four buildings built in the 18th and 19th centuries, the home of the Russian Tsars.

On Mondays, your tour will include the Catherine Palace and Park located in Peterhof. This home originally the residence of Empress Catherine I, wife of Peter the Great is one of Russia's top historical reaction complexes. The palace has been in the process of restoration since World War II. It houses the Catherine Palace Museum which encompasses the 250 year history of the famous monument.

On Tuesdays, your tour will include the Grand Palace and park in Peterhof rather than the Peter and Paul Fortress and Cathedral as well as the Hermitage. The Grand Palace was designed to be the centerpiece of Peter the Great’s ‘Russian Versaille’. The original design of Peter the Great was incorporated into what you see today by Bartolomeo Rastrelli, the architect commissioned by his daughter Empress Elizabeth.
