We have very limited time in St Petersburg but are very interested in visiting Pushkin. Are tours available from St Petersburg? If so, what's the average length of the trip? Is Pushkin available by train or only bus from St. Petersburg?

Thanks,

Candace

If you're going to St. P, you won't want to miss Pushkin!

You can go to Pushkin either by train or by bus from St. P. If you want to take the train, you can do so from Vitebsky Station near the Pushkinskaya metro. The train takes approximately an hour, and you'll want to get off at the Detskoye Tselo stop. From their you'll have to walk about 10 minutes to get to the Catherine and Alexander Palaces and park surrounding them, which contain the things most tourists want to see. Anyone in the city will be able to direct you. Have a good trip.
