Meteor to Peterhof — tour of fountains and Lower Park

The fastest way to get to Peterhof from St. Petersburg is to take a meteor to Peterhof.

In just 40 minutes along the Neva River and the Gulf of Finland, you'll arrive at the Lower Park pier – without traffic jams or extra transfers.

A meteor excursion is not just convenient transport, but also a scenic water trip with panoramic views of St. Petersburg and the Gulf of Finland. Upon arrival, a professional guide will meet you, and a tour of the Lower Park – the main part of Peterhof with its fountains – will begin.

During the Peterhof excursion, you'll stroll along the park's picturesque alleys, where the famous Peterhof fountains are located, and see one of the residence's main symbols – the Grand Cascade, one of the largest fountain complexes in the world.

You'll stop at the Samson Fountain, a symbol of Russia's victory in the Great Northern War, and walk along the Sea Canal to the Gulf of Finland, offering impressive views of the park and coastline.

The guide will explain how Peterhof's fountain system works and show you the trick fountains that unexpectedly turn on, making the park walk especially vivid and memorable.

After a full and exciting walk, you'll return to St. Petersburg on a comfortable meteor. The sunset over the water and the city lights will be the perfect finale to this day.
