Evening Stroll Through The Streets Of St. PetersburgExplore > Russian Federation > St. Petersburg > Evening Stroll Through The Streets Of St. Petersburg
OverviewExperience St. Petersburg after dark! This is a lovely way to integrate with the locals and window shop (or buy!). We loved strolling down this street at sunset, although no one spoke English and therefore couldn't direct us at all! One experience that is often missed when traveling by ship is an evening stroll down the main and side streets of a city. There is no better way to understand the lifestyle of a local than to have this opportunity. As dusk falls and the neon lights appear, there is always a magic that overtakes a town. St. Petersburg is no different and this twilight walk along the avenues of the city will give you a new view of St. Petersburg, as well as its locals. You will have a little time after your day of touring to freshen up and eat some dinner before we pick you up again at the pier. Your drive will be short, and you and your guide will be dropped off at the Admiralty, which is the start of the avenue called Nevsky Prospect. You will have a nicely paced walk through Admiralty Park and onto the Palace Square. The sun will be perfect for photos as you walk through the Arch of the General Staff of the Army and reach the beginning of Nevsky Prospect, the famous avenue in St. Petersburg. As you walk along, you'll pass the shops and your view of the window displays will be informing as you can see the merchandise available here. You will have a chance to visit some of the stores and plenty of opportunity to snap some pictures. Some of the famous buildings you will pass may have been included in an earlier tour, but now you will have some time to absorb the exterior and the setting. Merchants Yard, Spilt Blood Church, and Kazan Cathedral are all so wonderful to see. An inside visit to the Passage will give you about 30 minutes for some shopping. A quiet walk through Small Garden Street, a pedestrian area with numerous shops, a small fountain, and some funny monuments and cafes gives you the understanding of public space in a neighborhood setting. - This is a shared tour. - This tour may only be purchased in conjunction with a ShoreTrips St. Petersburg 1, 2, or 3 day shore excursion package as you need the proper paperwork from our partners to exit the ship and participate. - You must be at least 18 years old to consume alcohol. If you are under 18, you will be given juice. - This tour requires a minimum of 6 participants. We will do our best to match you. Days offered: 7 days a week Departures:
