About us

My name is Alisa. I am a tour guide in St Petersburg, Russia, and owner of Petersburgtrip private tours. We offer private tours and visa-free shore excursions that combine must-see places & hidden gems that big group tours miss, delicious Russian food and bits of local experience.

We have more than 200 5-star reviews on Tripadvisor

All our tours are private & can be customized for your needs for free.

OUR ADVANTAGES:

No way to skip the Hermitage, Peterhof or the Catherine palace. But everyone else goes there. Why not add something special? Peek inside a sectret courtyard in the city center to find Colosseum or make a wish where locals do? Ride the metro like Russian to see how deep it is and find a bust of Lenin or glass columns? There are lots of cool places.

As a private party, we are faster and more flexible than big groups & see more. Tickets to the main museums are booked in advance – no waiting in lines. As a private party, we don’t need to wait for other 30 people from a toilet or a shop. As a result – we spend most of the time sightseeing.

Russian pies, borsht soup, beef stroganoff, pancakes create a very good memory of Russia even if you don’t like vodka. If you prefer other cuisine or don’t need a break while sightseeing – just let us know.

Quite often you can just pay full amount upon arrival and be sure that nobody will run away with your money in a foreign country.

Just let us know your ideas. If it’s your first time to Russia & you don’t know what to do, let us know and we will suggest an itinerary.
