Cruise the Canals of St Petersburg
Built on the River Neva, St Petersburg sits on a web of canals lined by magnificent palaces. Known as the Venice of the North, this great city is best viewed from the water. And how better to do so than from the Grand Hotel Europe’s classic boat, the Katarina.
There’s more than a touch of movie star glamour as you step aboard. Refreshments are served, sunlight dances off the ripples and stone bridges topped by statues pass overhead. Suddenly you are cruising past monumental buildings such as the Hermitage or the onion-domed Church of our Saviour’s Spilled Blood.
This is the way to explore St Petersburg in true Russian style—indeed as Peter the Great himself might have wished it.
