This excursion gives us the opportunity to go ashore and enjoy some time to explore and indulge in a little retail therapy. Our coach will take us to a recommended store where a variety of items can be purchased. Then we are dropped at the Nevsky Prospekt, the main shopping area in St Petersburg, for some free time to shop and sightsee at leisure – an excellent way to really make the most of our visit to the city. For bargain hunters amongst us the flea market by the Church of Our Saviour on the Spilled Blood is a short walk away.

During the transfer downtown we may see sights that are seen on tour A. However, this tour is intended to give passengers some free time at leisure and is not recommended as a replacement for the comprehensive Panoramic City Tour. The amount of guiding will be limited. The time spent shopping is dependent on traffic conditions. US Dollars are accepted at the flea market but not credit cards. US Dollars are not accepted in the Nevsky Prospekt, only Roubles. Credit cards can be used in most big outlets. Please be mindful of pickpockets in the city.
