Description

Type: Single-day activity
Duration: 5 hours
* The history of the northern capital is inextricably linked with particularly revered Christian saints - today we will worship some of them. This tour is suitable for everyone: both pilgrims and just interested people. • First, we will visit the Holy Trinity Alexander Nevsky Lavra, an active monastery, where we will have the opportunity to worship the holy Prince Alexander Nevsky, the greatest commander, diplomat, who managed to preserve the Russian land in the conditions of the Tatar-Mongol invasion. It is to him that the words that have become the mottos of the Orthodox army belong.: "God is not in power, but in truth." If desired, we can visit the Necropolis of the Masters of Arts and/ or the Necropolis of the XVIII century, where members of the imperial family, prominent people, including Lomonosov, Lanskaya (Natalia Pushkin), Tchaikovsky, Glinka, Krylov, Dostoevsky, Shishkin, Karamzin, Komissarzhevskaya, Cherkasov, Tovstonogov and many others are buried. • Next, we will go to the St. John's Convent on the Petrograd side. The place of labor and repose of the great Russian saint, the righteous John of Kronstadt. The relics of the saint rest here in the shrine. Father John is called the prayer book of the Russian land, there are cases of his miraculous help both during his lifetime and in our time. • And we will end our journey near the Blessed Xenia Chapel, where Saint Xenia, or Ksenyushka, as she is often called, rests in peace, who helped ordinary people during her lifetime and continues to do so after her death. She saved some from need, begged for a mate or a child, and asked her for help with her studies. She has found national reverence, and her chapel is always crowded. People come again and again, telling about the miraculous help of this Saint. We will take a short tour of the Smolensk Cemetery. If desired, we can pay a donation to the temple (200 rubles per person) and this will give us the opportunity to climb the bell tower of the Smolenskaya Church and, if there is a long queue at the Blessed Xenia Chapel, pass without waiting in line.

Organizer
Здравствуйте, дорогие путешественники! Меня зовут Элеонора, я аккредитованный гид, кандидат филологических наук и увлеченный местный житель. С радостью поделюсь с вами любовью к городу, знаниями и позитивными эмоциями! Я работаю с командой гидов-профессионалов, мы проводим экскурсии на своих автомобилях. Для путешественников такой вариант индивидуальной экскурсии получается дешевле, нежели он обратится к гиду и отдельно арендует автомобиль. Наша команда существует уже достаточно давно, средний стаж гидовской работы — 10 лет, наши гиды — профессионалы своего дела, имеющие глубокие знания в области истории, архитектуры, краеведения. При этом мы стараемся не перегружать наших путешественников фактами; экскурсии наши—лёгкие для восприятия: будут и легенды и шутки, в то же время они насыщенные и интересные. По запросу, могут быть проведены экскурсии с акцентом на историю, например, или православие, или тему войн, которые велись на этих землях на протяжении веков, или экскурсии могут быть адаптированы для детей. Все гиды имеют городскую аккредитацию, что дает право на проведение экскурсий (теперь с этим строго!), огромное количество положительных отзывов, отличаются любовью к своему городу и к вам, нашим гостям. Также, учитывается аккуратность, безаварийность вождения автомобиля. Машины в нашей команде - все хорошего класса; лично у меня Audi Q5 2021 года, с панорамной крышей и кожаным салоном. Есть машины разные, но все они комфорт или бизнес-класса, надёжные и достаточно новые. Но все-таки, ещё раз: это наши гиды. Именно они делают часы, проведенные с нами насыщенными, богатыми на эмоции, мысли и впечатления. Мы вам всегда рады! Обращайтесь!
