New Year’s in Red Square: 9 days Starts: Moscow Ends: St Petersburg Departs: 29 Dec 07
Bring out the Champagne and Caviar, put the vodka on ice and head to Russia’s Red Square this New Year! Then, putting those resolutions behind you, enjoy a revolution of a trip through Russia's heartland north to St Petersburg.
Our 9-day “New Years in Red Square” trip departs from Moscow on 29th December taking in Moscow, Pskov and St Petersburg. Visit the Kremlin, Lenin’s Mausoleum and Gorky Park before heading down to Red Square for a truly Russian celebration! Then it’s off to ancient Pskov for some alpine fun - ice-skating on the frozen lake and cross country skiing. After that you’ll be looking forward to a traditional Russian Banya (sauna) followed by a few vodka’s to relax those tired muscles! Finally we head to St Petersburg and the famed Hermitage museum for a good dose of culture! This trip is a New Year’s resolution that you can keep! |
