Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

We did the 1 week Moscow and St Petersburg tour with Go Russia at the end of Feb/March expecting snow, ice, freezing temps etc. but alas there was none of this as both cities experienced their warmest periods on record. Still it did make walking around in our free time that much easier. Cannot fault Go Russia at all - the boooking process was excellent and chages to the itinerary we wamted were easily accommodated. The visa process is rather daunting but Go Russia made this as easy as possible. We had 2 full days and evenings in Moscow which was fine and we had some free time to explore. We stayed at the Marriott Courtyard which was very good and only 10 minutes walk from the Kremlin - the other hotel offered was quite a way out of the centre and would have involved metro trips to get to the centre. Our guide (Marina) was excellent and took great care of us - we were the only couple in the group. The overnight train to St Petersburg was excellent. We took the upgrade so had our own bathroom witha good shower and a heated toilet seat no less. We were the only couple in the whole carriage and i think the whole train only had a few passengers. May explain why the bar in the carriage was not available so no vodka nightcap. The journey was smooth and we were able to get a reasonable amount of sleep . 4 days in St Petersburg was just fine. There is so much to see but our guide (Natasha) was excellent in picking out the highlights. As in Moscow enough free time to look at and visit places not on the Tour. This time there were 4 of us in the group which made the visits easier. The time of year we visited along with the lack of chinese visitors due to the coronavirus resulted in palaces, galleries etc. being almost empty and so viewing was very easy. No complaints whatsoever and would have no hesitation in recommending Go Russia

Dear rclholl, Many thanks for finding time to post your detailed review on Tripadvisor which we hope would be very helpful to other travellers. We are glad to hear that you very much enjoyed your trip to Russia despite the fact that you could not experience the real Russian winter. Indeed, this year it was to some extent similar to what you expect to see in the Western Europe. Many thanks once again for travelling with us. Leonid

I travelled to St. Petersburg and Moscow with Go Russia late December 2019 to early January 2020, taking in New Year in Moscow. The only thing that went wrong with this trip was the weather... I had hoped to experience freezing temperatures and loads of ice and snow, but it was way too warm for that! Everything else was excellent. The tour guides were superb, and we were given sufficient time to do a bit of exploring ourselves too. The hotels in both cities were very comfortable, conveniently and centrally located. Pretty much everything we saw was fascinating. The two evening cultural events (traditional music and the “Nutcracker” ballet) were a wonderful and surprising addition to the itinerary. Furthermore, despite rumors I had heard to the contrary, the overnight train from St. Petersburg to Moscow was excellent. Last but not least, the visa service offered by Go Russia is superb, and really does make everything so much easier and stress-free. If I have one suggestion - it would have been a nice touch to have one or two organized evening meals at a proper Russian establishment, shared with my traveling companions (both BrIrish, and the German / French groups). But that’s a minor point in what was otherwise a wonderful and memorable holiday! Highly recommended. I would definitely travel with Go Russia again.

We travelled to St Petersburg in early march for a week in the city. I found that Go Russia made the whole experience easy from making the booking, assisting with the visa and arranging for us to have an excellent guide (Natasha) in the City. We stayed at the Petro Palace (seperate review) which was really close to Winter Palace/St Isaac's/Admiralty. The taxi from the airport, the drivers we had in the city/excursions were very helpful. Our week was organised with daily trips (city taxi tour, Hermitage, Peterhof, Catherine's Palace and Yusupov Palace - Natasha as our Guide, it felt like an exclusive experience, she is passionate and knowledgeable. I think we were so fortunate that the lack of overseas visitors enabled us to see the Palaces without hindrance. It would have been nice to see the City with snow and the river/canals frozen, but as the temperature was above the norm this was not possible; just wish the visit could have been longer. I recommend Go Russia to anyone wishing to visit Russia.

We have just returned from New Year in Russia. We would not hesitate in recommending Go Russia and would definitely book with them again. All enquiries were responded to very quickly, assistance with the visa application process was invaluable, transfers on time etc. We had great seats (row 4) to the ballet and our guide (Natasha) in St Petersburg was so knowledgeable and really made the trip for us.

Thanks to Go Russia we have just returned from one of the best holidays I can honestly say we have ever had.

We booked the tour through Go Russia in London, that included tours of Moscow and a cruise from Moscow to Saint Petersburg and of course tours of Saint Petersburg. We spent 5 nights in Moscow, 6 nights on the cruise and 6 nights in Saint Petersburg. The hotels In Moscow & Saint Petersburg were centrally situated and top class. The ship, the crew and the food were all exceptional, it was a very relaxing cruise on the Volga and lakes. Our very knowledgeable tour guides in Moscow, Saint Petersburg and on the cruise kept us very busy and we learnt so much from them of these beautiful cities, towns and Russia. We had such fun with all of them.

I would highly recommend booking through Go Russia if you would like to visit Russia. All my emails and queries were attended to and answered timeously. They also assisted me with my application form for a Russian visa. The whole trip was planned professionally to the last detail and all transfers, drivers and guides were on time. Everything went perfectly.

Would we book another trip to Russia through Go Russia……..most definitely!!!!

Trip was amazing. Everything went smoothly and according to plan. Tour guides were excellent and knew their subject inside and out, also helped with SIM card and Troika pass. Drivers all arrived on time and were waiting for me outside train carriage. Hotels were comfortable and centrally located, staff friendly and spoke English. In Moscow I was a short walk from the metro, purchased a 3 day Troika metro pass. A highlight was the Bolshoi, not only a world class performance but the venue is simply dazzling, all gold and red velvet. So much history and culture. Busy days but still free time to stroll Gorky Park and cruise the rivers and canals of Petersburg. Thanks for organizing such a memorable tour.

I am just returning from a trip arranged by JustGoRussia to Moscow and St Petersburg with my wife, and the experience was excellent. As my available dates didn’t match the regular tours, they tailor made a special 8-day trip for us. It was the best thing we could have done. Everything worked very well, the hotels were very good, we didn’t have any problem, and we much enjoyed both cities. The guides and driver (Maria, Natalia and Vladimir) were very good. In special, Natalia was simply outstanding, and I don’t know how to thank her. For sure the guides made our trip much better than if we went by ourselves – I definitely recommend the guides, especially in a country that is very beautiful and safe, but has a complete different alphabet and not everyone understand English. The guides were also able to explain lots of things, making the trip much better, and we didn’t have to stand in queues. Thanks also to Olga and her husband for kindly receiving us in their Dacha for a nice and delicious lunch – we were very honoured. I will definitely recommend JustGoRussia to my friends

I made an individual trip with the planning and support of GoRussia, as they had sufficient language skills. All of the points that were important to me were taken into account. Even later changes were not a problem.
The trip itself was unique and couldn't have been better. In Russia I was able to meet my language partners, which gave me a first-hand experience of life. The next trip is already being planned. The Russians are very happy when foreign guests come to visit them; you immediately feel welcome.

A very positive experience. I felt very reassured with all of the information received and the handling of the visa which was particularly easy via Go Russia in Germany. No glitches with the pick ups and no delays with the guides. First trip to Russia and I was impressed, so much so that I would book with Go Russia again when I eventually travel back and see more of the country. Julia from Go Russia was extremely competent and helpful.

Just returned back to the States from Ukraine tour with GoRussia Tours. I had a private tour. The tour exceeded my expectations. The food, lodging, sights, history were amazing. GoRussia Tour Group was very responsive, professional, and delivered. Made traveling during CoVID very easy. Our guide Diane in Lviv and Natasha in Kiev were fantastic. Could not ask for better guides. Very knowledgeable, responsive to my needs and professional. Great attitudes. I will use GoRussia Tour Group for my future travel needs in counties that they support.
