How Many Zones Are There for Traveling in Russia?

Lately, Russia has become a new destination that Thai travelers are starting to watch. More people are visiting and sharing their impressions, confirming that traveling in Russia is no longer a mysterious or scary land of shadows. In particular, photos of its colorful, distinctive palaces make Thai travelers want to experience it for themselves. Most go with large group tours; small, private groups are still not very common. Recently, the northern lights in Scandinavia have become very expensive, so more people are turning to hunting the northern lights in Russia instead. In this article, Rin will tell you the basic information you should know before traveling to Russia. The first thing, Rin thinks, for anyone planning a trip to Russia is choosing a zone or tour package, deciding what kind of trip you want. Let's take a look together. 1 Moscow - Saint Petersburg

Russia's main travel route There are two main tourist cities. The first is Moscow, known as the "new Russia", a blend of Asia and Europe. Most of the time we fly into Moscow. The second is Saint Petersburg, with its many beautiful palaces and churches. It looks European, yet it feels like a land with a complex character. Russia's main route is simply visiting these two cities. They are far apart, so it is best to take a domestic flight to save time, because, as you know, Russia is a very large country. 2 The Golden Ring

The first tour route, which Westerners call The Golden Ring, takes in the ancient towns north and east of Moscow, a must-see route. This route is full of beautiful architecture in many towns around the capital. 3 River Cruise

The second most popular attraction is a cruise on the Volga River. 4 Countryside and the Caspian Sea

The third is the countryside, nature and the Caspian Sea. The natural areas people like most are mostly in the west, on the Veneer side. 5 Siberia Tour

Another popular zone is the Siberia tour, a vast area with beautiful nature, from Lake Baikal to old cities such as Irkutsk.

6 Altai Mountains

The last popular zone runs from the Altai Mountains to Tuva and Siberia, with many mysterious places waiting to be discovered. You can choose to visit any zone along the routes you like, or combine routes into your own. If you would like Rin and the team to plan the route for you, we will do our very best to match your needs. Because this is a private tour of Russia.
