 |
|
Hi.
My girlfriend and I are going to Tallinn for a week, and we thought it would be fun to go to St. Petersburg for the day while we're there. The trains run overnight, so we were planning to get a train from Tallinn on a Monday night, arrive in St. Petersburg Tuesday morning, get the train back Tuesday evening.
Obviously, we're not planning on booking a hotel, as we won't be staying there overnight, so I'm not really sure what to do about getting a visa.
I guess one option is just to stay overnight in St. Petersburg  , but is it possible to visit just for the day? What documents would we need? (it seems we can book our train tickets online in advance if that helps).
Oh - we're both UK citizens, and we're students in London, so making a trip to the consulate in person isn't a problem.
Thanks for your help |

Personally I like Euroline buses better than the trains, because they are new and modern.
Going to St Petes for day is like going to Disney World for a 1/2 hour, you will feel completely overwhelm with everything you want to see.
Only thing I can say is visit Petergof and you might be able to see the majority of it in a day. Unless you have your Rollerblades, Hermitage will be impossible. |
