Midnight St Petersburg Cruise: Drawbridges and Canals
1h30
Om denne aktiviteten
Meet your guide at midnight near Kazan Cathedral, and then hop aboard your sightseeing boat for your midnight cruise through St Petersburg. Take a seat out on deck or inside the lower saloon, and then sit back and relax as you cruise around the city, learning about its sights from your onboard guide.
The city is latticed with canals that feed off from the romantic Neva River, and each night the drawbridges are raised to allow larger ships to pass. See the raising of the bridges as you glide around the canals, admiring the illuminated sights of St Petersburg reflected on the water. Pass underneath Trinity Bridge, admiring its Art Nouveau design, and gaze out toward the northern St Petersburg to see Vasilyevsky Island across from the Winter Palace.
Head into the widest part of the Neva River and pass Peter and Paul Fortress, the vast estate that looks magical lit up at night. Cruise alongside Mikhailovsky Castle and hear how the hulking structure was built for Tsar Paul I in the late 18th century.
After cruising around the canals of the city, admiring the sights, return to Kazan Cathedral and disembark your boat. Your nighttime tour finishes at the waterside.

A sail tour at midnight on a good boat with a good guide, beautiful views. It’s important to get some warm clothes on this tour, it’s windy.
We were in St. Petersburg during World Cip, so we had a bunch of World Cup bro's on the boat with us. But this was fine. The mood was high and people were pleasant. It was definitely hard to hear the loudspeaker with everyone carrying on, so I would day you might hear more off season. What was most fascinating was the excitement at the drawbridges going up... it is a real event replete with cheering and music from the shores and a zillion boats on the water. Something you should totally do once, as St. Petersburg is very pretty from the Neva at night. But just manage your expectations.
The tour guide was great but the rest of the tour was only ok. We joined a boat full of other tourists who did not book this tour online but onsite and spent way less money on it. The boat had speakers where Russian explanations were given which were disturbing the headphones we had from our guide.
