Apartment houses: visit the rooftops and inside

Despite the "modest" name, this is an amazing route, and only a guide in love with his city could offer it. You will see old houses not only from the facades, which are actually a "book cover", but you will enter the front ones and even go up to the rooftops.

The program includes visits to several typical apartment buildings. The guide will tell you why they decided to build them, and who lived in them, how their interior changed from century to century. Each building has its own stories - informative, funny, tragic - but always interesting. The guide will draw your attention both to the facades with lush stucco molding and to little things, for example, unusual latches on the windows.

Then you will be able to see the same houses from a bird's eye view, having climbed onto a safe roof, and in good weather, using special passages, it will be possible to move from one roof to another. From here, a view of the attic, which was filmed by the artists, opens up.

Atmospheric walk through the night city

Day and night St. Petersburg is like two different cities. The second is much more mysterious and enigmatic. They say that "St. Petersburg night is a state of mind." Antique lanterns illuminate houses, streets, bridges. The soft glow of lights surrounds the temples.

Ships are quietly sailing along the rivers and canals. And even the main streets of St. Petersburg, such as Nevsky Prospect, are becoming deserted. You can wander from one attraction to another, be alone with them, and a professional photographer will take pictures for memory with unusual, rare illumination.

The guide will tell you not only about those places of St. Petersburg that are known to everyone, but will also take you to the corners, usually hidden from the eyes of tourists.

You will be able to contemplate both luxurious old houses built in the 18th century, and deaf courtyards that tell the history of the city as it is, without embellishment.

You will see the grand staircases, along which the ladies in smart dresses and men in tailcoats climbed, and the black stairs - mysterious and deaf. Yards-wells, into which, it seems, the sun's ray never peeps, and arrays of walk-through yards. Nothing will help you to understand and feel the atmosphere of St. Petersburg like its "behind the scenes!"

Car travel

It is a trip by car that allows you to see a large number of attractions in a short time and at the same time not feel tired. No need to worry about what the weather will be like. In any case, the tour will take place, and you will see all the planned memorials.

Moreover, you can order a trip at any time of the day. If someone wants to see Petersburg at night, you can do it. What could be more unusual and more beautiful than the white nights, the opening of bridges? You will see the Spit of Vasilievsky Island, the Winter Palace, St. Isaac's Cathedral, the mystical Rotunda.

And how many interesting things you will learn during the trip! For example, do you know why the horse of Emperor Peter the Great is shod with boots? Do you want to know what caused this? Would you like to see the bridge under which the famous Valery Chkalov flew on his plane? The program also includes the Summer Garden, the Church of the Savior on Spilled Blood and much more.

Drawbridges through the eyes of a Petersburger

  • Foundry. It rises almost vertically.
  • Peter the Great. Made in the Art Nouveau style. Breeding this bridge is a romantic sight.
