RIVER AND CANAL BOAT TOUR will offer you a completely different angle to view the city. St. Petersburg was designed and built to be looked at from water, and now this is the best way to get a good introduction to the city in the shortest possible time. We would especially recommend this tour to those who have but 1 or 2 days in St. Petersburg.
Private river and canal boat trip by a small comfortable boat can be taken during the daytime as well as in the evening (we can cater champagne for your party in this case!). You can also consider a night boat tour to see the famous opening of the bridges over the Neva from water. It's a truly magnificent tour that combines the beautifully-lit St.Petersburg at night and a really spectacular view of huge bridge spans going up to allow big vessels to pass up and down the Neva.
NOTE: 1)We provide only private boat tours separately for your party, you will not have to join in a dull group tour with some unknown people.
2) We also do not believe in low quality audio-guides - you will be accompanied by your personal tour guide, who will comment on everything you see and answer your questions.
3) You will be able to choose your personal route for the boat tour.

The show is performed by the professional folk groups. It lasts for about two hours and consists of two parts. In the intermission refreshments are served, guests are treated to fruit, canapes with red and black caviar, ham, smoked sausages, cheese, strong and soft drinks (Russian vodka, champagne, mineral water, juice). During the interval, classical music known world-wide is performed by a string quartette. Various Russian souvenirs are sold. The show takes place on the stage of the Concert Hall with a seating capacity of 340 seats.
The Nikolayevsky Art-Centre, the sponsor of Russian folk shows in St.Petersburg, is located in the Nikolayevsky Palace and named after it. Whatever deep the emotions at the Russian folklore may be, they are certainly emphasized by the magnificent interiors of the Palace. It is a fine example of the 19th century architecture built to the design by the famous architect Andrey Stakenshneider for Emperor Nicholas I's son, Grand Duke Nikolay. Due to this fact, the current name of the former Grand Duke's residence is the Nikolayevsky Palace.
