More about this excursion

Hi, friends! My name is Andrey, and I will be happy to give you a tour called 'Bridges of Saint Petersburg'. Our city is not случайно called the New Amsterdam or the Northern Venice: it was built at right angles, 'with a continuous facade' along the rivers and canals, using European technologies for constructing foundations and draining water. During the tour, we will see the main crossings over the Neva, Fontanka, and Moika, as well as the Griboyedov Canal. You will learn the history and periods of their construction, Peter the Great's attitude towards the bridges, and I will tell you curious facts and legends. During the route, we will make 8–10 stops with getting out of the car for photos and a more detailed рассказ. A little about me: I was born in Leningrad, grew up in St. Petersburg, I have a historical education in the specialty 'Local History'. My guide accreditation number: T027-01367-78/03071799. In my Volvo XC70, I am ready to pick you up from the airport, railway station, or hotel and organize a convenient and interesting route for you, taking into account the time you have and specific wishes. Additionally, I work in tandem with Olya. She is a photographer with extensive experience in compositional shooting during walks and the author of portrait images. Olya will take photos for you or make a memorable video from the tour. The option is paid additionally. St. Petersburg is beautiful at any time of the year and in any weather. Even rain, cloudy leaden sky, and wind have become recognizable calling cards of the city, especially against the backdrop of bridges!
