Russia Imperial Luxury: Moscow & St Petersburg
Grand hotels, private curators and a first-class Sapsan — Imperial Russia at its most opulent.
Starting from
₹2,09,999 / person
Overview
This is Russia with the velvet rope lifted — landmark five-star addresses steps from Red Square, private art historians guiding you through the Hermitage before the crowds, and a box at the Bolshoi or Mariinsky. Eight unhurried nights across Moscow and St Petersburg, every transfer private, every queue skipped.
We curate the details that make an imperial trip: an early-access Hermitage tour, a caviar-and-blini tasting, a Kremlin arrival in style and a private canal boat during the White Nights. Fully bespoke — tell us the pace and the passions and we compose the journey around them.
