Spending your first weekend away after long weeks of being locked at home is the best way to regain your energy and start a new after crisis life. Seeing something absolutely different and new to your eyes and senses might be one of the ways to get over the stressful conditions of the current pandemic world.

Since October 2019 nationals of 51 foreign states (see the list of states below) are allowed to cross the Russian border with an electronic free visa. The E-visa is issued online within 72 hours before the planned journey. You are not required to provide any documents such as financial guarantees, or invitation letters, or booking confirmations. The only document that you must have in your hand is your valid international passport. The application and issue of the E-visa is free of charge and of no commitment.

This is now the fastest and the easiest way to spend a long weekend in Saint Petersburg, or suburbs. You can stay in Russia up to 8 days, but you are not allowed to leave the administrative territory of Saint Petersburg and Leningrad region.

Amparus tour operator has launched a 4-day tour with guaranteed departures every Friday, Sunday and Monday. You will see Peter's city and its eminent attractions, and visit one of the richest museums in the world – the Hermitage. Plan on Monday – go on Friday!
