Luxury Russia twin-centre holiday, Moscow & St. Petersburg – save 63%
Spanning two continents, bordering 14 countries and straddling nine time zones, there are few countries that are as fascinating and varied as Russia. With this six-night twin-centre escape, you’ll travel from the billionaire’s bolthole of Moscow to the picturesque and elegant city of St Petersburg. Rising from the Moscow skyline, the Hilton Leningradskaya resides in one of the city’s famous Stalin Towers. Iconic inside and out, the hotel’s fusion of Orthodox architecture and Russian Baroque décor makes for a perfect base from which to explore this mesmerising city from. You’ll be just a stone’s throw from the city’s Red Square, the Kremlin and the Bolshoi Theatre, which will give you a rich sense of its turbulent history. It’s also worth trying traditional Georgian food while you’re in Moscow, such as khachapuri – bread stuffed with melted Georgian sulguni cheese, which is popular in the city. You’ll then hop onto a Sapsan train to the enchanting St Petersburg, for a four hour ride through Russia's stunning landscape. Rising from its humble beginnings as a swampy backwater, this ‘Window of Europe’ is now a maze of glistening canals, ornate spires and Baroque and neo-classical architecture. You’ll be staying at the Petro Palace for three nights, just steps away from the Hermintage and St. Isaac’s Cathedral.For more information on our offer inclusions, please see below.Good to knowYou will require a visa for Russia.
