We had 3 days’ tour with Masha and Inna from Best Guides on our last visit to St Pete and it was perfect. Organization was very smooth and quick – we communicated with Masha through e-mail and had all details agreed within 2 days. We chose 3 days’ winter package suggested on their site, which included 3.5 hours’ city tour,... More

I’m actually not an experienced forum user, but I was so much impressed with the Best Guides’ tours that I decided to register and to post this review just to share my fantastic experience!

First time I went to SPB with my then-teenage daughter we had a tour with Anna( who works with Best Guides now). We went to Hermitage, to Spilled Blood Church, and both enjoyed it !!

Our friends and my wife and I were taken to all the major St Petersburg sites in 2 consecutive days with everything excellently organised beforehand.

There is some fairly easy walking at Peterhof... More

I wish Best Guides were in every city I've visited- they truly made our trip to St. Petersburg! Masha was our primary guide, who we immediately felt comfortable with. She's charismatic, very well educated and speaks wonderful English. Masha coordinated 3 days of tours for us, tailoring it to our preferences and interests, including a wonderful day trip to Novgorod... More
