RUSSIA
Vast, imposing and somewhat daunting, even the most experienced traveler may need help planning a cohesive luxury tour to this immense country! At Cville Travel, a Charlottesville Travel Agency, we can advise, arrange and organize a spectacular trip to Russia that will astound and delight your wildest dreams.
Moscow, a city filled with ancient onion-domes cathedrals is both inspiring and enchanting. Visit the Red Square where in 1812 a victorious Napoleon addressed his troops. St. Basil’s Cathedral will astound the eye with its magnificent architecture. Art lovers will delight in the Pushkin Museum of Fine Arts, and a performance of the iconic Swan Lake Ballet at the Bolshoi will be an experience of a lifetime. Romanticists will know that this land was the inspiration for great love stories like Anna Karenina and Doctor Zhivago!
St Petersburg is equally captivating. Visit the magnificent iconic Church of the Savior on Spilled Blood, where the opulence and sheer glamour of Russian history is epitomized. Art lovers must not miss the Hermitage Museum. Shopping is wonderful and different, souvenirs of knives and uniforms abound and the the Maltevsky Market is crowded and packed with vendors offering exotic fruits, spices, famous Russian honey and second hand treasures.
For those with a calling to see exotic destinations, we will take you away from the cities. The massive Ural mountains will take your breathe away and you can watch the astonishing and overwhelming site of the Northern lights from the north-west region of Karelia. Visit Lake Baikal, inhabited by thousands of spices and larger than some countries! For something totally unique, visit the Valley of Geysers in Kamchatka, the largest geyser fields on the planet.
Russia will live in your mind forever. The flowering steppes in spring, the snowcapped peaks of the Caucasus, the millions of cranes landing on a remote lake in Siberia, these are sights that not many people get to see.
