The Balalaika and Vodka Tour Student

Go to Russia VISA FREE and experience St Petersburg, one of the must see cities of Europe! On this tour you also get the opportunity to explore Stockholm, Tallinn and Helsinki; three capital cities with different character but all well worth a visit. With optional extras ranging from visits to the Russian Vodka museum (including shots) to visiting world famous palaces, you know you’re in for a good time. We travel with big overnight ferries between the cities so while travelling you can have a drink in the bar, go to the sauna or show your moves on the dance floor! The next morning you wake up in a new city ready to explore the next destination!

Note that you have more departures on the ordinary Balalaika and Vodka tour, identical with the student version but where you meet other young travellers than students and you have good student discounts on the ordinary price.
