overlake7 Posted May 22, 2015 #1 Share Posted May 22, 2015 Can anyone tell me if you can leave articles of clothing,rain gear, snacks etc. on the bus/ van you are touring in or do you have to carry all your belongings with you every time you stop at an attraction?

Giantfan13 Posted May 22, 2015 #2 Share Posted May 22, 2015 I would assume this goes for all the tour companies in St Petersburg, you can, and should, leave most of the things you take with you, for the day, on the bus. The driver is always with the bus so everything is perfectly safe and secure. Obviously, I wouldn't leave wallets, handbags, even your passport, on the bus, but clothes, books, tablets, whatever, would be perfectly safe left there.

jmps Posted May 22, 2015 #3 Share Posted May 22, 2015 We just did this tour last week. You can leave things on the bus no problem. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jmps Posted May 24, 2015 #5 Share Posted May 24, 2015 Can you ask specific questions? Overall it was a really nice tour with a very good guide. It is tiring walking all day but worth it for sure. Best part was the Hermitage before it opened. We were alone in most rooms! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holly2 Posted May 24, 2015 #6 Share Posted May 24, 2015 Did you do 1 or 2 day? Who was your guide? How many in your group? Did you do subway? Uf so, how many stops and was it worth doing? Where did you have lunch? How was it? What kind if van? Could you see and hear ok? Did you take hydrofoil? Did you customize itinerary? Anything you would do differently? Any recommendations? Thx.

We did the two day tour with Val as the guide. It included the Subway for one stop. I didn't do it but everyone else did and thought is was worth it. Lunch the first day was Stolle pies. The second was a sit down lunch after the Peterhof gardens. Both were good and a reason to go with SPB. We were in a bus that held around 30. We were a group of 16. We had ear pieces that made hearing easy. We did the hydrofoil. It was neat. We stuck with the standard tour. It works like clockwork so I wouldn't try to change it if you like the sights it goes to. I would recommend this tour. If I could change it exactly for me I would add more historical non royalty based sights related to the revolution or WWII. That would probably require a third day though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

elizamar Posted May 27, 2015 #10 Share Posted May 27, 2015 Did you have any kids in your group? Trying to decide if my 13 yr old twins would enjoy or if it's too long Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmps Posted May 27, 2015 #11 Share Posted May 27, 2015 Did you have any kids in your group? Trying to decide if my 13 yr old twins would enjoy or if it's too long We did not have any kids. I think it would depend on the 13 YO if they would enjoy it. The tour is heavy on churches, palaces, and gardens. If they are into history and travel they would like it. If not it probably would be boring for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
