This is a brilliant tour to do as an introduction to the history of this region. Our guide was very knowledgeable and friendly. We loved walking through the gardens in winter and found the pace of the tour perfect. The sleigh ride was a delightful way to end the tour.

A wonderful experience! Our personal guide made it very special for us. The tour of Pushkin and the Palace of Pavlosk, it's cathedral and the horse ride in the troika through the snowy landscape was magical!
