Dear Bobby,
Just a note to let you know that Gary and I are back from our St.Petersburg/Moscow trip, and -- with one exception -- had a wonderful experience.We hope you will take note of the exception and not use that place again.

Almost everything worked out perfectly. Our two guides spoke superlative English and were extremely knowledgeable about all the important places in their respective cities. We enjoyed them very much.

Subject: good tour guide!

We recently went on the Classical Baltics tour and I wanted to commend our guide, Mrs. Ona Sageviciene. She did a wonderful job of sharing her enthusiasm and knowledge about the three countries, and she handled any problems that came up with grace and tact. The guides in the other cities were also very good.

Alex-- thanks so much for organizing our wonderful excursion to St Petersburg and Moscow this past July. I've rarely been on a trip where the planes, trains and automobiles all ran on schedule (including the wonderful "Red Arrow'" overnight train to Moscow!), and the accomodations were exactly as advertised. Also, the AcademService guides in both St Petersburg and Moscow were EXCELLENT! Knowledgable, personable and dependable.

Sorry it took me so long to contact you following my trip to Russia in May. The trip was excellent. The one main hitch was the flight from Moscow to St. Petersburg that was finally resolved after some aggravation. City tour of Moscow by car was very rushed and the guide Alexey was so-so. The Moscow city tour segment needs some more time. Visit to Arbat street in Moscow was time wasted. It could have been omitted. The golden ring was great and St. Petersburg was priceless and the guide in St. Petersburg was by far the best.

We just wanted to let you know that our tour was even better than we expected. All the tour guides were really professional and very knowledgeable. Jeff especially liked Eugenia in St. Petersburg, and wanted to contact her to thank her. Is there a way you could send us her email address or even her entire name? We have business cards for the other two guides we had.It was interesting being with the four older people from India. I think they had a little trouble keeping up with some of the tours as they tired easily.

the trip to Russia, Finland and Sweden went well. Thank-you for good planning and recommendation. As per your suggestion, the hotel in town was very convenient and allow easy access to food and shopping.Elena was also an excellent tour guide from the feedback by the shadow group tour travelers.. .
