Saint Petersburg is a city for walking. I think it is the best way to explore it and a unique opportunity to feel yourself like a...no, not Russian, better - a citizen of Petersburg!
During the tour, we'll be able to see wide prospects (Russian avenues) and narrow lanes, admire palaces and churches or have a look at our famous well-courtyards. We'll be able to take a city tram, to go down to our fantastic underground. We'll have some rest in a shade of Summer Garden's trees. We'll walk at our own pace and will be free to choose any direction.
It is the most flexible and, probably, the most Petersburg way to reveal the secrets and the soul of the city!

a stunning example of the city architecture, engineering and art of the middle of XIX century
