Flying To Russia

Why Travel to Russia?

This vast and diverse country, occupying the top chunk of a continent all the way from Poland to Japan - and a big chunk of world history too - demands travel attention.

The architecture is both glorious and hideous, the history is monstrous, the art is sensational and the people can be touchingly friendly.

Absurd Fabergé eggs? Extraordinary onion domes? Caviar crepe? Yes, please.

A hard day's White Night in St Petersburg? Slamming vodka with your taxi driver in Moscow? Da!

Big, brutal, beautiful and intriguing, Russia is an enigma that's got to be sampled by any serious traveller.

Downside:

- Most of Russia is no longer cheap though there is plenty of budget accommodation available.

- Despite the size of the country, internal flights are unreliable and Russian airlines have the world's worst safety record.

Russia Travel Guide, climate:

Best: May, June, Sept, Oct.

July/August can be wet and stuff gets booked up, especially long-distance trains in August and Black Sea resorts, this is Russian holidays]

Worst: Nov-March [winter is long, dark and extremely cold with short days, but the snow scenes will be stunning. Early Spring is muddy, slushy and falling icicles kill!]

Length of stay: Minimum worthwhile stay, not including flights: Moscow or St Petersburg are excellent for a wild and wooly underwear weekend.

Recommended: 2 weeks to take in Moscow, St Petersburg and some of the surrounding towns - such as the Golden Ring - and countryside.

The Trans-Siberian Railway to Irkutsk [Lake Baikal] will require at least 5 days.

Russia's main attractions:

***Moscow, a diverse and interesting city with masses of history, action and must-see spectacles, though not on the same planet as St Petersburg for architectural elegance. See Moscow Pictures

***St Petersburg, one of the world's most beautiful cities, with many splendid buildings and museums, including the spectacular Hermitage, with a sophisticated service industry. See St Petersburg Pictures

***Novgorod, 190 km [118mls] south of St Petersburg, an important political and artistic centre from the 9th century and still holds a wide and varied collection of magnificent structures including Russia's oldest cathedral, frescoes galore, and plenty of glorious oddities.

***The Golden Ring, a few hours travel northeast of Moscow, are a collection of attractive historic towns dating from the 16th and 17th centuries.

These can be visited on day trips, but better, hire a car or join a boat with a guide and take your time to enjoy:

***Suzdal, the most important town in the Golden Ring, Suzdal used be a political and religious centre and has more than fifty quaint and well-preserved old structures. About 210km [131 mls] from Moscow.

It is a major tourist attraction, yet still retains an enchanting, pre-Soviet atmosphere.

**Vladimir is famed for its Golden Gate and two splendid cathedrals. About 180km [112 mls] from Moscow.

**Rostov. This quiet, rustic town offers the usual churches but also a lovely lake and spectacular kremlin.

**Yaroslavl is much bigger than other towns in the Ring but totally crammed with gorgeous churches, if you haven't seen enough. 250kms [156mls] from Moscow.

**Irkutsk, the 'Paris of Siberia', is a long way from anywhere except Mongolia, but is on the Trans-Siberian train route [see more info left] and well worth a stop-off. The city is mostly charming, with considerable Chinese influence and some magnificent architecture, including typically elaborate Siberian 'gingerbread' houses.

Another of Irkutsk's attractions is the proximity to lovely, 636km [398mls] long Lake Baikal where hiking, biking, horse trekking, fishing and boating are big time.

The north end is the most beautiful and isolated.Listvyanka village is a popular place to stay for tourists.

***Cruising the Volga River via some superb old towns like Kazan [ancient Tatar city], Shiryaeva and Ulyanovsk [Lenin's birthplace]. See Boat cruises, left.

**Black Sea, Sochi. This is a Russian beach resort town with a warm climate and sophisticated health spas [sanatoria], with beaches and tennis courts, scenically situated at the foot of the Caucasus Mountains.

** Yekaterinburg in the Ural Mountains is a pretty, pleasant city except perhaps for Tsar Nick II and his family who met their end here and the USA's U2 spy pilot who was shot down in the area.

The place offers excellent architecture, museums, entertainment and access to the Urals for varied activities.

Typical Day

 Private full-day boat tour, the Amalfi Coast to Capri Boat Excursion, departs from Amalfi, Maiori and Minori. Aboard our traditional Italian 'gozzo' motor-boat, which custom-built three years ago, your captain will steer away from Amalfi to take in the nearby seaside towns of Maiori and Minori. Just beyond Maiori is the marine cave called Pandora's Grotto, which we can enter with our boat to experience this beautiful natural wonder. Onwards you will visit the nearby Marmorata Falls and view the majestical Ravello, the famous village of music, which is seated high on a cliff face towering over Amalfi. Encircling the cliff past Amalfi, your captain will cruise along to the pristine enclave of Santa Croce and its Lover's Arch and onwards to Conca Dei Marini where you can visit the Grotta Dello Smeraldo or the Emerald Grotto. Sailing west, your captain will point out the Furore Fjord, a deep inlet where the International Diving Championships are held annually and then cruise along the twin-mountain town of Praiano. Offering drinks to quench any thirst, your captain will continue towards the gelati-hued village of Positano, before steering out to sea to visit the mythical islands of Li Galli. The islands are legendary as it is said Ulysses had to tie himself to the mast of his ship in order to resist the singing of the sirens. Capri is now within reach at Punta Campanella, where the Amalfi Coast officially ends and the Sorrento Coast begins. Your motor boat excursion continues to Capri and your captain will circle the island, visit the famous Blue Grotto, the Faraglioni rock formation and the White and Green Grottos.
