Tend to think of Saint Petersburg as a dull and rainy city with the wind that knocks you down? This tour is intended to throw a new light upon Saint Petersburg to represent it in a way that makes the city decidedly different. Exquisite facades of centuries-old palaces decorated with glittering gilt fretwork, ornamental bridges over quiet canals, magnificent noble houses, Millionnaya Street, Nevsky Prospekt and other attractions to feast your eyes on if you join this guided walking tour. 
The walking route starts at downtown Saint Petersburg, on Palace Square by the Alexander Column. The pink granite monument is worth seeing as it is considered the world’s tallest triumphal construction. For a century and a half it has not at all sunk or deviate from the vertical. 
The General Staff Building with a bow-shaped arch and the Winter Palace compete for visitors’ attention while on the Square. There one can easily imagine how the Great October Socialist Revolution broke out in 1917 after the storming of the residence of Russian tsars. As the exterior of this area has been preserved, it may seem that yelling and clash of arms are heard up to now.  
After passing narrow lanes they enter a place where Bolshaya Neva runs into Malaya. The place tempts one with its spaciousness, cool wind, chittering seagulls and a scenic view of Rostral Columns, the Peter and Paul Fortress and the Old Stock Exchange. Moreover, it is one of the most ideal perspectives to take amazing shots.
The sightseeing walking tour of downtown Saint Petersburg means a lot of vivid impressions as it ends at the Hermitage. One of the world’s remarkable museums provides a great chance to walk through the former imperial private apartments, look in the glass as Russian empresses used to do it or enjoy treasures of world painting.  To see best paintings by da Vinci, Raphael, Renoir, Rembrandt firsthand is a chance not to be missed. Nothing will restrict your stay at the Hermitage - you can take a tour of the exhibition, visit the museum shop or a nice café.
