Fontanka river. Then the tour continued along the Fontanka river. The boat will pass by the Summer Garden, by the Summer Palace of Peter I and the Tea House. Right infront of the smallest monument to Chizhik-Pyzhik, the ship will turn into the Moika River.

Moika river. On your way you will see Mikhailovsky Castle, Mikhailovsky Palace, the Field of Mars and the pearl of this channel - the Church of the Savior on Spilled Blood.

The ship will turn from the Moika River into the Winter Canal - the shortest canal and one of the first stone embankments in the city, where a fragment of the last winter palace of Peter I is preserved.

And Neva river again.

In the end of your journey you sail once again along the banks of Neva river,  Old Saint Petersburg Stock Exchange and Rostral Columns, Winter palace and Kunstkamera will be seen in their prime glory.

You journey will take place in any weather conditions – cruisers have decks and comfortable glazed interior spaces.
