UlkoTours - Russia, Baltics & Scandinavia - Shore Excursions & Land Tours

We were on a cruise with MSC and decided to book this tour and not the cruise ship’s tour. Not only were they fantastic it was about two thirds of the cruise cost. It also included our visa. They picked us up at the ship and returned us to the ship both days and in plenty of time before the cruise departed. I would recommend this tour to anyone. Thanks for a great tour.

Amazing tour of the Hermitage! Loved the rest of St. Petersburg too...wish we stayed longer. Julia our private tour guide was amazing! She was full of informative details of the history and art of your lovely city St. Petersburg. We will be back for sure. Thank you Julia for making our experience extra memorable!!

We used ulkotours for a 4h visit to the Hermitage in St Petersburg today. Our guide Julia was amazing - a walking encyclopedia of art history capable of explaining in layman's terms so even I could understand. 10 out of 10 - a thoroughly enjoyable experience and Julia couldn't have done a better job. Thanks for a great afternoon.

One of your tour guide named Eli or Elijah is excellent. He was detailed oriented, very bright so nice and kind. He's a big asset to the company.

Choose your own adventure in St. Petersburg!😊 (Private Flexible Tour of St. Petersburg) With your ideas and this company’s expertise, this will be the best tour you’ve ever taken! (especially if you have Julia as your guide and Artem as your driver) We had an overview of St. Petersburg on our first day and wanted to focus on every day living for our choice private tour. Our list included every day things like transportation, seeing the subway stations (they’re magnificent) grocery store, schools and getting outside of the city. What made Julia different from other guides we’ve had is that she tried to get to know us so she could accommodate our sightseeing. We had a few gaps and she was able to fill them perfectly. Better yet, she also let us get to know her. Julia is a wealth of information but we didn’t feel like we’d been to a college lecture and bombarded with facts- rather she allowed for questions and conversation along the way. She is knowledgeable, well traveled and delightful. We also appreciated that Julia and our driver Artem were in sync with one another. In the past we have had drivers/guides (with other companies) who argued about the route to be taken. Artem and Julia were on the same page, flexible and it was a pleasure to spend the day with them. We will always remember the beautiful buildings and sights in and around St. Petersburg but truly it was like gaining new friends with Julia and Artem. Thank you!
