Alex's Tours St. Petersburg Russia

[barbds55]

Hi Fellow Members that love to Cruise !

 

My husband and I took an NCL Jewel cruise this past May up through the Baltic. Our "Highlight" was the Russian Tour we took for the two days we were in St. Petersburg. "Alex's Tours and Travel" is the only way we will ever want to see the area again. We had E-mailed before our cruise and they had everything and everywhere we wanted to see all planned out for us. Plus many other interesting points of interest that they new we would want to see. My husbands ancestor is "Anton Rubenstein", Alex and Elena made a point to find out things about him for us. Many things we didn't even know. They took us to his grave site, home, street, St. Petersburg Conservatory, etc., plus the best tour guide we've ever had (we've had many) spoke perfect english as well as Alex (he's also a great driver) and a clean well maintained car, made our tour the most rewarding trip we've ever taken. Being our first Baltic Cruise I'd say NCL was OK but hats off to Alex and Elena for a most memorable time and tour of a lifetime! :D
