Winter Petersburg: where to go and what to see
Winter tours in Petersburg help you see the city without extra hustle and properly allocate time between streets, museums, and warm stops. On a cold day, it's convenient to choose a sightseeing tour of the center, the Hermitage, the General Staff Building, the Peter and Paul Fortress, or a palace route.
In sunny weather, Palace Square, Nevsky Prospekt, the embankments, the Peter and Paul Fortress, and winter parks look great. For a trip outside the city, Pushkin, Pavlovsk, Kronstadt, and other suburbs are suitable, especially if the program includes a palace, museum, or bus portion.
If you are coming for a few days or for winter holidays, it is more convenient to check out in advance tours to St. Petersburg: in one program you can combine the city, museums, palaces, suburbs, and festive routes without assembling the schedule yourself.
