* This tour introduces you to the Holy of holies of St. Petersburg, the place where the history of the city began.

In a 2-hour walk through the fortress: • we will evaluate the most provocative monument to Emperor Peter the Great • Learn the secret language of the fortress prisoners • learn a lot about the unique and unrepeatable bell tower of Peter and Paul Cathedral and its salvation during the Great Patriotic War • we will hear the chiming of the first chiming clock in our country and learn the story of their amazing journey to Russia. • let's reveal the secret of the graves of the last imperial family • let's go out and admire the panorama of the Neva River through the famous "gate of death" This special tour will teach you how to better understand and feel St. Petersburg! The fortress, like Petrovsky city in miniature, tells the story of the Northern Capital and the logic of its development. During the tour, we will not only explore the territory of the fortress, but also visit the Peter and Paul Cathedral, the tomb of the Russian emperors, and the prison of the Trubetskoy Bastion.
