St Petersburg is a vibrant and bustling Russian city of ideas which has firmly established itself as one of the major cultural centres of the world.
The city has a striking array of neoclassical and baroque architectural delights in the form of its many spectacularly designed palaces and museums, most of which were renovated for its 300th anniversary in 2003.
It was here the Russian Revolution was instigated and it was here that democracy was encouraged when a change was required. The city has a different feel from that of Moscow; it takes on more of the western perspective, allowing the feeling of a more European styled city.
Steppes Travel’s roots lie in Russia which is where it all began for us. As such, we have a wealth of knowledge and passion for this vast country – and a whole host of ‘must-visits’ to suggest.
It’s all here. Things to see and do, places to explore and moments to discover.
A passion for travel runs right through every one of our experts - meaning they're always ready with first-hand insight about their specialist countries.
My travels were first inspired by my love of the UK, which I take as much pleasure in exploring as countries far and wide. For me, travel is all about the adventure, the people I meet and the food I sample along the way.
