In St Petersburg, there’s a free shuttle bus into the city, bus transport for 72 hours and two night




Visiting St Petersburg on a cruise and doing your own thing is an expensive business. If you want to explore outside rental cars in australia the confines of a cruise line's excursion, a tourist visa will cost up to £100 and you have the hassle of obtaining it before departure from the U.K.
A new package from London-based travel and cruise specialist BAway makes this an easy option. You can be away from home for just four nights, travelling in relative rental cars in australia comfort, for under £500, which you could easily spend on two full days' sightseeing alone if you booked a cruise line's tours.
The deal includes flights from London to Helsinki and overnight each way on the Princess Maria, a cruise-ferry rental cars in australia operated by St Peter Line. The ship is under charter from Danish-owned DFDS Seaways, so banish all thoughts of old, Soviet-style bunk beds, gruel and paint-stripper vodka.

In St Petersburg, there's a free shuttle bus into the city, bus transport for 72 hours and two nights in a four-star hotel. All this for £479 per person, available year-round. A lot of the hotels in the city have quite low occupancy so they're welcoming this new arrangement to attract more leisure tourists, BAway's managing director, Jeremy Scott, told Cruise Critic.
But there are other ways cruise passengers can get round the big visa cost, too, which the cruise lines would rather you didn't know about.  If you book a private tour with an accredited Russian tour operator, who will pick you up at the dock and deliver you back to the ship, you're also exempt, provided you stay with the guide all day.
