Experience Russian Federation like an insider

Moscow, St. Petersburg and Vladivostok are among the best places to visit in the Russian Federation. If you want to experience more of this country's history, you must consider visiting these cities and other lesser-known ones. You'll enjoy the cultural diversity and the history of the country as well as its diverse ethnic groups.

Moscow

If you're planning a holiday in Russia, the best time to visit is during summer. This period is marked by clear skies, warm weather and green surroundings. In addition to the enchanting landscapes, the country is also known for its authentic Russian vodka, Matryoshka doll, and heritage buildings. Moreover, the country's underground rail system makes traveling to the country easy and safe.

St. Petersburg

Visit this beautiful city during the summer and see the beautiful buildings. In June and July, it is ideal to go to see the famous White Nights. The city is also home to a great number of museums, theaters, and palaces. It also boasts a large system of canals that are a major attraction.

St. Petersburg

Vladivostok

The city of Vladivostok is located in the far eastern region of the Russian Federation. The capital of the region, Vladivostok is one of the oldest cities in the country. Visitors can enjoy the city's many natural attractions, such as the Tokarevsky Lighthouse, which is one of the oldest lighthouses in the Russian Far East. The lighthouse is located on an island with a steep path that can be reached only at low tide, and is a great place to view the city's winter scenery. It also attracts seals in early spring.

Murmansk

The city is named after its war heroes. The streets are named after them, and there are monuments all over town. One such monument is the Defenders of the Soviet Arctic monument, a concrete figure of a soldier set on a steep hill overlooking Kola Bay. This monument became a symbol for the region's defenders of the Arctic Circle.

Lake Ritsa

Lake Ritsa is located in the Caucasus Mountains, surrounded by snow-capped peaks. The lake is easily accessible via a winding mountain road. Along the way, visitors can see ancient hill fortresses, cascading waterfalls, and mineral hot springs. The road also takes visitors through pristine mountain trails and world-class caves.

Lake Ritsa

Prielbrusye National Park

Located at the foot of sleeping Mount Elbrus, Prielbrusye National Park offers an abundance of natural beauty. The park's diverse vegetation includes forests of juniper, geranium, and pine needles. The surrounding mountain ranges also feature numerous lakes and glaciers.

Ruskeala

In northern Russia, Ruskeala is a unique place that is a true marvel of nature. The region has a famous marble canyon that has been providing marble to the large construction houses of Saint Petersburg for centuries. The region is also home to three small waterfalls and is 20 kilometers from the Finnish border. Visitors to the area can go on watercraft excursions and view a spectacular light show at the lake.

Guided tours in Russian Federation

If you are planning a tour to Russia, you should have the proper vaccinations and visas before leaving for your trip. The Russian Federation is open to international travelers; however, you need to take a PCR test 48 hours before traveling to avoid getting infected with certain diseases. Some popular Russian tour destinations include Moscow, St. Petersburg, the Golden Ring, Kazan, wildlife & nature tours, Kamchatka, and the Trans-Siberian train.

Routes to Moscow

If you're on a budget, guided tours in Moscow are a great way to see the city without breaking the bank. You can find the information you need about the different routes, how much they cost, and even purchase tickets in advance. This will save you time and money when you arrive in the capital. If you're planning on visiting popular sites, this is especially helpful.

Cities to visit

There are many cities to see in the Russian Federation. Moscow, the capital city, is a must-see. While you're in Moscow, don't miss the Kremlin and Saint Basil's Cathedral. You'll also have the opportunity to shop in local markets.

Visa requirements

Depending on your tour provider, you may be required to submit certain documents prior to travel to Russia. One of the most important documents is your letter of invitation, which is also known as a tourist confirmation document. A letter of invitation is issued by a Russian tour operator or a hotel, and it states the dates and places you will be staying in Russia. In addition, some countries may also require you to submit a copy of the front page of your passport.

Credit cards

Russia has a plan to make its payment cards more widely accepted in the foreign market. As of October 2016, the country's banks have issued 70 million MIR cards, which are similar to the global payment systems MasterCard and Visa. By next year, state welfare and pension payments must be processed through MIR, as well as salaries and payments of civil servants.

Passport spiking

While traveling abroad, travellers should ensure that their passport is up-to-date. Many countries have strict regulations regarding passports. If you don't have a valid passport, you may be subject to identity checks by authorities in public places. In addition, you'll likely have to pay a fine if you don't have the right paperwork. You should also make sure that you bring enough cash for your needs.

Traveling with a health condition

If you are planning to travel to the Russian Federation with a health condition, you should know what you should do and what you shouldn't do. First of all, you must register with the Russian Federation. You should visit a local post office or bank to complete the registration process. After you've registered, you can check into a hotel. If you're not registered, you may face additional charges, including fines and even expulsion from the country.
