Karelia Tours: Adventures & Sighseeing — Perfect for
Short Countryside Tours outside St. Petersburg
 |
Karelia,
situated close to Moscow, St. Petersburg and Finland is
a place where wilderness and untamed nature are just a moment
away — you just need to travel a few kilometers by
car or boat from the city (actually, the biggest, Petrozavodsk,
is relatively small if compared to other Russian cities).
Enjoy rafting, hiking, fishing, cooking meals on campfire
or observe cultural wonders people have created on this
northern land during the centuries. Trips to Karelia can
be easily combined with travels to Moscow or St. Petersburg,
or even be weekend "getaway" trips. |
WayToRussia.Net has a partnership with the best and most reliable
and professional tour companies in the region, and below we
present you their tours. If you don't find the tour you would
like below, please, fill in the form at the end of this page,
