Dear Serious Traveler,

Why not break from tradition this Thanksgiving? Take your family for an unforgettable Thanksgiving in Russia! Or make our family of travelers your own. This delightful tour is just eight days – short enough to fit into even the busiest schedule yet offering enough time to experience the real Russia.

We’ll visit Moscow – the capital of Russia and one of her ancient cities. You will marvel at Red Square; step inside the Kremlin; shop in GUM; see St. Basil’s Cathedral in her snowy splendor and delight at the world-famous Moscow Circus. Then, we’re whisked off by Sapsan fast train to St. Petersburg, the Venice of the North. We’ll visit the Hermitage, one of the world’s most amazing museums; shop for books at Dom Knigi; step inside the Peter and Paul Fortress; see the Admiralty Building and Smolny Convent.

Those who have visited Russia before will enjoy free time to revisit favorite spots while first-time visitors enjoy optional excursions. Performances will be offered to fill your evenings with delight. (We’ll send a listing of performances and excursions once theater performances are announced.) If your schedule allows for a slightly longer holiday, you won’t want to miss the pre-trip extension (described on page 5 of this brochure) and possibly stay a little longer in St. Petersburg (see page 6 of this brochure). You see, this trip can be customized for everyone!

Please enjoy our brochure. If you need additional copies for family and friends, please let us know. We’ll be happy to send them. But don’t delay – we’re limiting our group to only 15.
