Isabella R.

The military experience was absolutely insane! Riding a tank and holding real historical weapons was a once-in-a-lifetime thrill. The hotels were genuinely 5-star.

I loved the Sapsan train ride—so smooth and fast compared to taking a bus. St. Petersburg is breathtaking. The guide was very knowledgeable about the Tsars.
