Visiting Russia for Business and Pleasure

All of these are fantastic places to visit in their own right - but did you know that Russia has a growing number of visitors coming to the country for business and recreational travel that are often overlooked by many people in Western Europe.

     The country has some truly stunning cities to visit - steeped in hundreds of years of history that stretch far beyond the early twentieth century communism period that the country seems to have been unceremoniously tarnished with by many people from western nations. Moscow and St Petersburg are exciting and different cities from many other city destinations in Europe, and offer the visitors a unique taste of a culture and people that have provided the world with some of the greatest known figures in the fields of art and music. As well as unique architecture and places to visit, visitors to the country can also enjoy the unique experience found with Russian river cruises.
