The best season to visit St.Petersburg
In general summer (June, July, August) is the best. Though with our Northern summer you can never be 100% sure about the weather at least long days (so-called White Nights) will help you to extend your limited time in the city quite a lot. With an average temperature varying between 15°C – 25°C, it’s comfortable for long walks and boat rides in the city.
September so-called Babye Leto (Indian Summer) the weather is often better than in August and the holiday season is over so it’s less crowded than in June or July. But the days are getting shorter you can almost forget about famous White nights.
If you’re a culture vulture and rather have bad weather and fewer tourists late September-October and April-first half of May are better months for you, there are not too many tourists like in summer, it’s not too cold (between 8 °C and 12 °C), you get a chance to explore quietly the main city attractions.
White Nights
My favorite time in the city with its peak in mid-June (night from 21 st to 22 nd is the shortest night) when the city doesn’t sleep! It feels like you can sleep 4 hours a day and it’s enough. The weather in June can vary from cold 15°C to warm 22°C, rains are quite frequent. The only downside of White nights is too many tourists and multiple forums, exhibitions, and events. If you do want to come in June make sure to book accommodation in advance.
Useful information for planning your 3-day itinerary
You can get anywhere by public transport ; around the city, to/from the airport and to the main suburbs. There are usually several options.
Most places (hostels, shops, restaurants, cafes, metro, etc.) accept Visa/Master cards . Note ! On buses/trams/marshrutkas (commercial minibusses) you pay cash.
If you don’t speak Russian you’ll definitely survive here even if you get lost try to ask for help from younger people you have a better chance they speak any English.
Google translate works quite well for English-Russian, Campbell used it a lot and could even hold a basic conversation.
The city is quite safe . In all my life I have never had any bad experiences here. Normal precautions; watch for pickpockets, don’t walk alone at night on the outskirts (there is nothing to do there for you anyway), don’t leave your things unattended in public places.
There are many churches/cathedrals in the city most of them are functioning before you enter you have to; for women – cover your head/for men – take off cap/hat.
It’s better to draw money in ATMs of big international banks (Raiffeisen, City bank, etc.) where you can get up to RUB50 000/US$850.
Wi-fi is quite common in the city , all hotels/hostels most restaurants, and coffee shops have free wi-fi. Though sometimes to connect to wi-fi in public places you need a local phone number.

St.Petersburg city center walking route
This loop allows you to see almost all the main city attractions. It takes between 3-4 hours to complete the route that gives you enough time to take photos and stop for a cup for coffee but not to visit any of the museums on the way.
Taking this route you will see (in order from start to finish): Nevsky Prospect – Kazansky cathedral – Singer House – Stroganov palace – State Capella – Hermitage, Palace Square – Admiralty building – St.Isaac cathedral – Bronze Horseman – Dvortsovy (Palace) bridge – Vasilevsky island, Strelka – Kunstkamera – Stock Exchange – Birzhevoy bridge – Peter and Paul fortress – Troitsky bridge – Marble palace – Field of Mars – Summer Garden – Mikhailovsky castle – Mikhailovsky Garden – Church of the Savior on Blood – Russian museum – Mikhailovsky theatre.

Top 10 most beautiful metro stations in St.Petersburg
Need to know about St.Petersburg metro ; you pay once to enter the metro and after that, you can spend as much time and change as many trains and stations as you wish without any additional payment. So you can see all the most beautiful metro stations in one go just for RUB45/US$0,7. You are allowed to take photos in the metro but without flash. Avoid rush hours Mon-Fri, from 7.30am to 10.00am and from 5.00pm to 8.00pm it’s a very bad time for exploring the metro and taking photos.
![btec travel and tourism assignments Avtovo metro station, St.Petersburg](https://stingynomads.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/St.Petersburg-city-guide-1.jpg)

Our perfect Saint Petersburg 3-day itinerary
Tourists from any country can stay in St.Petersburg without a Russian visa up to 72 hours only if they arrive by ferries and follow certain rules, check HERE for all the details. We worked out a thoroughly planned itinerary in order to help you to get the most out of three days in St.Petersburg. It’s only our suggestion you can switch it anyway depending on your interests, weather and time you have in the city.
Morning . To get know the city and to see most of the sights take a walking route, you’ll need about 3 hours to complete it. On the way, you can visit a couple of cathedrals, drink coffee in one of the coffee shops. As an option, you can do a city bus tour that does almost the same loop.
Afternoon . It’s time for lunch, check our restaurant recommendations to find the best place for you. After lunch, go underground and explore some of the most beautiful metro stations, there are many but we’d recommend choosing 4-5 otherwise you risk to spend all day in the metro. Opinion! My favorite stations are; Avtovo, Zvenigorodskaya, and Admiralteiskaya. If you have time you can check some of the sights located outside the city center like Smolny cathedral, Troitsky cathedral or maybe visit some of the off-the-beaten-track attractions.
Evening/night . Music concert/opera/ballet in one of the theaters. Most performances start at 7 pm, some at 8 pm. We’d suggest having dinner or maybe a snack before, some operas are more than 3 hours long hunger can be a problem. You can buy sandwiches and drinks in any theater as well but it’ll be more expensive. After you can go to one of the busy streets (e.g. Rubinsteina, Nevsky Prospekt) to have a couple of drinks or even do a pub crawl.
![btec travel and tourism assignments Church of the Savior on Blood, one of tourists' favorite sights in the city](https://stingynomads.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/St.Petersburg-city-guide-3-510x765.jpg)
Morning, afternoon . Visit one of the royal suburbs, it’ll take the most part of the day so go early morning to have more time for visiting parks and palaces. Tip! Better not to plan this trip on weekends there will be too many people.
Evening/night . Time to see drawbridges and White nights, the most spectacular is the opening of Palace bridge, at 1.10am after that you can walk along the embankment to one of the nearby bridges, take photos, drink coffee and go back to your hotel or stay awake all night to witness the shortest night in your life and to enjoy the tranquility of the city in the early morning.
![btec travel and tourism assignments Catherine palace, Pushkin.](https://stingynomads.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/St.Petersburg-city-guide-6.jpg)
Morning . Start with the Hermitage Museum, it’ll take a good part of your day, at least the whole morning. Tip! Buy your tickets at ticket offices inside the Former General Staff Building there won’t be many people.
Afternoon . After lunch, take a boat ride along rivers and channels, usually takes between 1-1,5hours. If you feel well-rested after a boat ride and ready for one more museum you can go to the Russian Museum for the rest of the day. You can switch the order of visits to the museums. Just remember the Hermitage opened till 9 pm on Mondays and Fridays and the Russian museum opened on Mondays till 8 pm and on Thursdays till 9 pm.
Evening/night . You can finally chill in one of the bars/restaurants in the center your sightseeing marathon is over!

Public transport in St.Petersburg
It’s cheap and easy to use no need to rent a car or take taxis all the time.
Metro – the easiest and fastest way to move around in the city, can get to any tourist attraction within the city. One trip costs RUB45/US$0,7 no time or station limit valid until you get out of the metro.
Buses – on some streets there is a separate line for buses but still, in rush hours you have a good chance to get stuck, I’d rather stick to the metro unless the bus is the only option. Bus ride RUB40/US$0,6 any distance.
Trams – the city used to have the longest tram in the world but not anymore, nowadays trams are quite scaring especially in the city center. Tram ride RUB40/US$0,6.
Marshrutka – it’s a commercial minibus that in a way repeats public buses’ routes, it may be a bit faster. It makes sense to take them when going to the suburbs (Pushkin, Peterhof). Price between RUB40-100/US$0,6-1,6 depending on the distance.
There are many taxi services as well as Uber and Yandex Taxi in the city if you don’t mind paying more you can easily get a taxi anywhere at any time of the day. I’d recommend asking for the price before you go.
Night buses in Saint Petersburg
From 30 April to 15 November on weekends (Friday-Saturday and Saturday-Sunday nights) there are 5 bus lines that copy metro routes, they run from 0.00 till 6 am, every 30min., stop at bus stops along the route; №1 M (red metro line), 2M (blue line), 3M (green line), 4M (orange line), 5M (purple line), price RUB40/US$ 0,6. Note! When the bridges are opened buses can’t cross to the other side in this case use metro. Two metro stations; Admiralteiskaya and Sportivnaya are opened on weekends from 1 am till 2.40am so if the bridges are opened and you need to get to the other side you can use the metro, RUB45/US$0,7.
![btec travel and tourism assignments The Bronze Horseman, St.Petersburg](https://stingynomads.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/St.Petersburg-city-guide-12.jpg)
St.Petersburg airport (Pulkovo)
Unlike in Moscow in St.Petersburg there is only one airport, doesn’t matter if you have international or local flight they all leave from Pulkovo airport. You can easily get to/from the airport by public transport.
How to get from Pulkovo to the city?
The bus stop is right in front of the exit, the bus leaves every 10-15min., cost RUB40/US0,6, plus the same for luggage if it’s big. Get off at Moskovskaya metro (you won’t miss it everybody will get off there). From here you can get by metro basically anywhere in the city, at least to all touristy areas. One metro ride is RUB45/US$0,7.
How to get from the city center to the airport?
First get to Moskovskaya metro station (red line), from the center about 20min. By metro. Than exit “Bus to the airport”, the bus stop is near McDonald. From there it takes between 15 to 30min. to get to the airport depending on traffic (from 5 pm to 8 pm the worst). So if you know the way it’ll take between 1-1h15min.

Handy items to bring with to St.Petersburg
Weather in St.Petersburg is unpredictable, it can change from warm and sunny to cold in windy in a day so my advice to bring some warmish clothes (hoodie, jeans, trainers) as well as summer clothing.
- Comfortable shoes / sandals for walking – you’ll be walking a lot; around the city, in the museums and parks make sure you have a pair of comfortable shoes.
- Umbrella – it can rain at any time in this city.
- Hoodie / sweater – even if it’s warm during the day you’ll need something warm to wear at night time.
- Jeans ( ladies’ option ) – for the same reason as a hoodie.
- Travel backpack – for hand luggage (to pack your laptop, phone, documents etc.) and to use as a day pack in the city.
- Sunglasses – yes, it can be sunny in the city and if you do any water excursion sunglasses will be quite handy.
- LifeStraw – tap water is not good for drinking (at least nobody I know drinks it unless there is a filter) bringing a LifeStraw bottle of just a filter is a good idea.

We are two ladies spending 3.5 days in St. Petersburg. Our flight home leaves at 5 am and our hotel is on the Nevsky Prospect 50. We need to get to the airport and we were wondering if we should move to an airport hotel the night before that has a shuttle to the airport. We would have to be at the airport at 3 am. Any suggestions?
Stingy Nomads
Hello, Rose! Thank you for the comment! I think it's easier to stay in one place and just take a taxi at night to the airport, I'm sure your hotel can arrange a taxi for you the evening before that picks you up at 2am or so and drives to the airport. At night there won't be much traffic. Just make sure your hotel books a taxi for you and when you get up, ask them to confirm it again. Have a great time in St.Petersburg!

Hi there. Great blog. Travelling end of the month. Are there any circuses at this time or are they closed? Thanks
Hello, Estelle! Thank you for the comment! You can try Circus Ciniselli at the Fontanka emb., for now, I see their Christmas performances are scheduled till 19th January but I'd recommend checking their site in a week or two maybe they'll extend it or start a new performance. Cheers!

Thank you, this is so useful! Especially all the information on transport and getting about. It will really help us to go armed with a bit of information as we are very nervous about not being able to read the alphabet!
Hello, Vicky! Thank you very much for the feedback! It's not as scary as it might seem, metro stations and street names are written in both Cyrillic and Latin letters, the airport bus makes announcements in English, most hostels and hotels have staff that can speak at least some English and tours and museum have audioguides in English. I'm sure you'll be fine! Enjoy St.Petersburg!

Saint Petersburg travel guide
Saint petersburg tourism | saint petersburg guide, you're going to love saint petersburg.
Saint Petersburg is the second-largest city in Russia and widely regarded as one of the most beautiful destinations in Europe. With a population of more than 5 million, it has a huge historic city center, which is now a UNESCO World Heritage Site. This is a city of architecture and culture but the nightlife is pretty great, too.
![btec travel and tourism assignments btec travel and tourism assignments](https://content.r9cdn.net/rimg/dimg/b2/7e/49f12709-city-13695-1774d825de2.jpg?crop=true&width=1020&height=498)
Top 5 Reasons to Visit Saint Petersburg
1. the hermitage museum/the winter palace.
This is one of the world's greatest museums, with more than 3 million exhibits. It has countless priceless artworks by the great masters and the building itself is fabulous.
2. Opera and Ballet
Seeing an opera or ballet at the Mariinsky Theatre is one of the city's great treats.
3. Rooftop Tours and Restaurants
There are no towers in Saint Petersburg, so for the best views you need to take a rooftop tour or eat in one of the rooftop restaurants.
4. Canal Tours
This is a more leisurely way to see the best of the city and enjoy its beautiful network of canals.
5. Architecture
The city contains some astonishing architecture and just walking in the historic center allows you to enjoy some of the most splendid buildings.
What to do in Saint Petersburg
1. hermitage museum: great art, great architecture.
The State Hermitage Museum housed in the Winter Palace is the most popular tourist attraction in Saint Petersburg. The museum has more than three million exhibits and it is said that it would take 11 years to view every single one of them, so you couldn't ask for a better excuse to plan many return visits to the city. The Winter Palace itself is perhaps the most famous building in this world-renowned city. It has its origins in a wooden house built for Peter the Great in 1708 but was not completed until the reign of Catherine the Great in 1762. The vast structure on Palace Square is simply breathtaking and the ornate facade makes for a great souvenir photograph.
2. Church of the Savior on the Spilled Blood: Monument to a Fallen Tsar
The Church of the Savior on the Spilled Blood was built to mark the site where the Tsar Alexander II was killed in 1881 by an anarchist's grenade. A shrine inside the church marks the exact spot on the road where the Tsar fell, with elaborate decoration contrasting the simple cobblestones of the original road on the floor of the shrine. The church cost an estimated 4.5 million roubles at the time of its construction, and was paid for by the Tsar's son, Alexander III, and other wealthy donors. You will immediately notice that the architecture is different from other buildings in the city, recalling the medieval Russian style of St. Basil's Cathedral in Moscow.
3. Petrodvorets: The Russian Versailles
Petrodvorets, also known as Peterhof, is a complex of palaces built on the orders of Peter the Great. The palaces and gardens are often called the "Russian Versailles" and are part of Saint Petersburg's UNESCO World Heritage Site. The fountains are particularly impressive and use gravity rather than pumps to power the jets of water. The beautiful palace interiors and ornate formal gardens provide a wonderful backdrop to one of the most inspiring areas in the city.
4. Summer Garden: Peter the Great's First Palace
Peter the Great founded the Summer Garden in 1704. The Tsar was also involved in the planning of the garden along geometric principles. There are lots of statues imported from Europe, along with fountains and rare imported plants. It was the site of lots of courtly activities for the Russian aristocracy at the time, serving at the location for many balls and parties. This is also the site of the Summer Palace, a relatively modest building which was the first palace built by Peter the Great in the city. It remains almost unaltered and provides visitors with a glimpse of what imperial life was like in Russian 300 years ago.
5. St. Isaac's Cathedral: A Dome of Pure Gold
St. Isaac's Cathedral is the largest Orthodox basilica in the world and the fourth-largest cathedral. It was built from 1818 to 1858 and one of its most striking features is the dome, plated in pure gold and rising 333 feet into the Saint Petersburg skyline. The interior features a host of intricate mosaics and ornate masonry. Once inside you can climb the 300 steps to the colonnade for some wonderful views across the city.
