Day-by-day itinerary

  1. Day1ISTANBUL – ST PETERSBURG

    We meet at the international departures terminal of Sabiha Gökçen Airport three hours before departure. After baggage, ticketing and boarding formalities, we depart for St. Petersburg on a scheduled Pegasus Airlines flight. Upon arrival in St. Petersburg, regarded as the Venice of the North and Russia’s imperial capital, we begin our city tour. On our panoramic tour, we will see Nevsky Prospect, St. Petersburg’s Champs-Élysées; Palace Square, home to the Winter Palace and the starting point of the first Russian Revolution in 1905; the Hermitage Museum, located here and home to the world’s largest art collection; the Aurora Cruiser, a symbol of the revolution; the Old Port lighthouses; the cathedral of the Peter and Paul Fortress; Kazan and St. Isaac’s cathedrals; Arts Square; and the Bronze Horseman monument to Peter the Great. After the tour, transfer to our hotel in St. Petersburg and free time to relax. Overnight at our hotel.

  2. Day2ST PETERSBURG

    After breakfast at the hotel, free time. Guests who wish may join the optional Pushkin Town & Peterhof Palace Park & Catherine Palace tour (155 Euro). Located on the Gulf of Finland, the summer palace was built by Italian architect Rastrelli after Peter the Great drew up its plans himself. With a building to rival Versailles in Paris and gardens adorned with 150 monumental fountains and 4 cascades, it is a magnificent complex. Although severely damaged during World War II, it was restored to its full splendour in keeping with its original architecture. After our Peterhof tour, we will have free time for lunch before departing for our Pushkin Town & Catherine Palace tour. This complex of parks, palaces and buildings, known as the Tsar’s Village, was commissioned by Catherine the Great in the 18th century. Catherine Palace is the main building of the town, which covers 600 hectares. Although its Amber Room is particularly fascinating, many tourists are unable to visit it due to heavy crowds, especially in summer. This famous town, where the aristocracy met the imperial family during the Tsarist era, is also home to the school attended by the renowned poet Pushkin. After the tour, transfer to our hotel. Overnight at our hotel.

  3. Day3ST PETERSBURG

    After breakfast at the hotel, free time. Guests who wish may join the optional Hermitage Museum & Cathedrals Tour (110 Euro). We first visit the Hermitage Museum, one of St. Petersburg’s most magnificent museums. As we explore this splendid palace complex in the heart of the city, we have the opportunity to experience the grandeur of the Tsarist era and admire some of the world’s most valuable works of art. Located beside the Neva River and housing approximately 4 million works from the Tsarist era, the Hermitage is one of the largest museums in Russia and the world, and has entered the Guinness Book of Records for having the largest collection of paintings. Walking among works by great masters from Leonardo da Vinci to Rembrandt, we embark on a fascinating journey into history. After our museum visit, we take a short walk to St. Isaac’s Cathedral. This building captivates us with its immense columns and golden dome, and we enjoy panoramic views of the city from here. We then continue to Kazan Cathedral, an impressive building on Nevsky Prospect that inspires admiration with its architecture and spiritual atmosphere. We take a short break in its peaceful interior and respectfully observe local worshippers. Our final stop of the day is the Church of the Savior on Spilled Blood, whose colourful domes have become a symbol of St. Petersburg. We experience the enchanting atmosphere of its mosaic-adorned interior and have ample opportunities to take photographs. After the tour, transfer to our hotel in St. Petersburg and free time to relax. Guests who wish may join the optional Russian Night with Dinner (130 Euro). At Troyka, one of Russia’s most famous cabaret-style restaurants, we enjoy dinner accompanied by captivating performances by a Russian dance troupe, followed by a transfer to our hotel. Overnight at our hotel.

  4. Day4ST PETERSBURG – MOSCOW

    After breakfast at the hotel, we check out and transfer to the railway station for our train journey to Moscow. Upon arrival in Moscow, we board our waiting private coach and set off on our Moscow city tour. Sights include Red Square, the historic centre that has witnessed political and social upheaval; the distinctive St. Basil’s Cathedral with its colourful onion-shaped domes; the Kremlin Palace; the Bolshoi Theatre; Tverskaya Street,

    Gorky Park, Novodevichy Convent, Swan Lake, Luzhniki Stadium, Sparrow Hills and, finally, Moscow University, all viewed on our panoramic tour. After the tour, transfer to the hotel to check in.

  5. Day5MOSCOW

    After breakfast at the hotel, free time. Guests who wish may join the optional Moscow Metro & Arbat Street & Nazım Hikmet’s Grave & Kremlin tour (120 Euro). On our metro tour, you can visit stations adorned with paintings, motifs and mosaics that rival art galleries, sample fine Russian and international cuisine in elegant cafés reminiscent of Paris, and watch local people going about their daily lives. Construction of the Moscow Metro began under Stalin in 1931. Although its size is now compared with the metro systems of New York, Paris and London, it is widely regarded as the world’s most beautiful metro in terms of interior architecture and decoration. Arbat Street, which runs through central Moscow, is a pedestrian street visited at least once by almost everyone who comes to the city, offering a pleasant walk from end to end. Here, you can browse colourful shop windows and sample some of the finest Russian and international cuisine. We will then visit the grave of the great poet Nazım Hikmet. After free time for lunch, we begin our Kremlin tour. Built in the 12th century, the Kremlin has become a symbol of both Moscow and Russia. Sights include 9 churches in the palace grounds, the Bell Tower with its 156 bells, the Tsar Bell weighing 201.924 Kg and made using 2 tonnes of silver and 25 kg of gold, the 15-tonne cannon built in 1586 but never used, and cannonballs weighing 1 tonne.

  • Where the itinerary specifies only a hotel category without naming the hotel(s) and/or lists alternative hotels for the same destination, your agency will inform you of the hotel(s) 48 hours before departure.
  • During trade fairs, congresses, concerts, events, sports tournaments and similar periods, hotels may be located farther away than the stated distances in km. In such cases, your agency will notify you 15 days before the tour departure date.
  • Rooms for 3 guests are subject to hotel availability, and the bed allocated to the 3rd guest is smaller than a standard bed. Rooms for 3 guests consist of 1 large bed + 1 extra bed. Extra beds are folding beds or sofa beds. When booking for a 3rd guest and/or a child, tour participants are deemed to accept the bed type and any resulting lack of space in the room. Child discounts apply to a single child within the eligible age group sharing a room with 2 adults.
  • Hotel breakfasts included in the tour follow the breakfast customs of the destination country and generally consist of a limited continental menu of butter, jam, bread, tea or coffee. Groups may be served in a separate dining room allocated to them.
  • The panoramic city tours included in the tour package provide a general introduction to each city, with commentary from the guide aboard the vehicle. These tours last a maximum of 2-3 hours and do not include admission to museums or archaeological sites. Fly Express is not responsible if panoramic tours or other tours listed in the itinerary cannot take place because local authorities prohibit visits or entry on the scheduled day and time, roads are closed due to events, or weather conditions make the tours impossible. Where roads are closed or vehicle access is prohibited, some tours may be conducted by public transport or on foot, where possible.
  • As tour flights are booked with group tickets, flight times may change. You can confirm the latest flight details with your agency. Your agency will provide the updated times with the tour information.
  • Tour flight times must be confirmed before purchasing domestic flights. If a guest purchases a domestic connecting flight independently from a provider other than the agency, they cannot claim any refund from the agency if the tour is cancelled by the agency or the flight times change. By purchasing the tour, the guest accepts in advance any financial or non-financial losses that may arise from the cancellation or alteration of the tour. Fly Express cannot be held responsible for these circumstances.
  • Under airline rules, if the outbound flight on a round-trip ticket is not used, the airline will cancel the return flight.
  • Guests joining the tour without flights must make their own way to the tour's starting point and arrive on time. Otherwise, they will be responsible for arranging all their own transfers.
  • Fly Express is not responsible if guests are unable to take their flight because they are not at the specified airport at the times advised in accordance with airline rules, fail to complete check-in and boarding procedures on time, or complete these procedures on time but are unable to board the aircraft. Guests who miss their flight are responsible for all expenses required to join the tour, including new round-trip flight tickets and transfers at the destination.
  • Tour participants are responsible for their personal belongings, bags, suitcases, passports / identity documents. Fly Express is not responsible for items that are left behind, lost or stolen. If forgotten items are found, there is no obligation to return them to the country and/or their owner, and any costs incurred in returning them are payable by the owner.
  • In cases of illness, loss, theft or similar incidents, the guide cannot accompany guests individually, as the guide's priority is to keep the group together and ensure the tour continues.
  • When purchasing the tour, you must provide your name as it appears in your passport, your date of birth and your passport number accurately. Flight tickets are issued using this information. Any ticket cancellation or change penalties resulting from incorrect information will be charged to you.
  • Some airlines may charge for food, drinks and online check-in services.
  • Specific coach seat numbers cannot be guaranteed during the tour.
  • The times announced by our guide during tours are departure times, when the vehicle starts moving. Our guide is responsible for treating all guests equally and will depart at the meeting time without waiting. Guests who arrive late must make their own way to the next stop.
  • Optional excursions are organised by our local partner agency and require at least 15 participants. If this minimum is not reached, excursions may not operate, or their prices, itineraries and vehicles may change according to the number of participants. The guide may also change excursion days and times depending on the opening hours of museums and archaeological sites and on weather conditions. Guests may be accompanied by a different guide on optional excursions.
  • In our classic packages that do not include optional tours, participation in these tours is voluntary. Guests who do not wish to join optional tours arranged during the trip are deemed to have agreed to wait at a suitable rest stop along the route. These guests will be dropped off at the rest stop before the optional tour begins and picked up from the same location after it ends.
  • For programmes that include the additional tours, museum & archaeological site admission fees must be paid to your agency at the time of booking or to the guide during the tour.
  • The participant agrees in advance to join the tours specified in the itinerary without disrupting the programme and to pay the tour representative separately during the trip the amount stated in advance in the itinerary to cover expenses such as local guides, museum & archaeological site admissions, city taxes and audio headsets, where applicable. The participant has been fully informed of these arrangements.
  • Where only a hotel category is specified and/or alternative accommodation options are listed for the same destination, details of your hotel(s) will be available 48 hours before departure.
  • Fly Express acts as an intermediary between the airline and the passenger and is subject to the Hague Protocol of 28.09.1955. Scheduled and charter flights may be delayed, and flight times may change before the tour and flight. Fly Express is obliged to communicate these changes as soon as possible. By purchasing the tour, passengers acknowledge and accept that flight details may change.

VISA

  • Citizens of the Republic of Türkiye require a visa. Visa applications must be submitted with a passport valid for at least 6 months after the end of the trip and the documents specified in the “Documents Required for a Visa” list.
  • Green passport holders do not require a visa; a passport valid for at least 6 months after the end of the trip is sufficient.
  • Having a visa does not guarantee entry to the country. Passport control officers have the authority to refuse entry. Fly Express is not responsible in such cases; responsibility rests with the passenger.
  • The visa information provided in the programme applies to citizens of the Republic of Türkiye. Guests holding passports issued by other countries should obtain visa information from the relevant consulates.
  • To avoid problems with border officials upon arrival in the destination country, passports that are torn, worn, water-damaged and/or have sustained similar damage must be renewed. If the destination country requires a visa for Turkish citizens, the relevant visa must be in the new passport. Otherwise, responsibility rests with the passenger.
  • When guests under 18 travel alone or with only one parent, border police may request a document showing the consent of both parents upon entry or exit. We therefore advise guests under 18 and their parents to pay particular attention to this requirement.
