Backcountry Russia

Backcountry Russia

Do you want to see the real Russia, not only the glamour and hustle of big cities (though these are interesting too), but also its unspoiled nature, traditional villages, ancient churches hidden between dense forests and clear lakes, narrow winding rivers and small towns where time seems to have stopped long ago? Especially for those who want to get a notion of how contemporary Russia really lives and looks, we have designed a unique itinerary that will encompass the energetic and aggressive Moscow, the beautiful and noble St Petersburg – and the rustic country that lies between them and which seems to have practically nothing in common with the life of these two world known cities. And all this – in just 8 days of intensive and unforgettable travel!

On the first day, you arrive to the Moscow International airport.  We shall meet you at the airport and, after completing custom formalities, you will be transferred to the hotel of your choice (we offer options of 3, 4 and 5 star accommodation). The rest of the day – at leisure.

In the morning of Day 2, after breakfast, you will be collected at your hotel and proceed to a city tour in a comfortable minibus with a driver and an English-speaking guide. You will see the streets and squares of Moscow, the business and cultural center of the country. You will visit the Red Square and Kremlin with its museums and treasures.
