Explore vibrant, cosmopolitan Moscow, Russia’s capital city and commercial hub. Begin with iconic Red Square, where you’ll find the colourful onion domes of St Basil’s Cathedral opposite Lenin’s mausoleum. The Kremlin will reveal its secrets when you pass within its walls to discover ancient churches and the fascinating Armoury Museum.

Stroll beside the waterways of elegant St Petersburg, Russia’s former capital. Explore over three million works of art in the Hermitage Museum, housed in the beautiful Winter Palace built for the tsars. Take in a ballet or time your visit for the white nights of summer when the sun hardly sets and the locals come out to play.
