Continue down into the metro and hear the stories behind St. Petersburg’s system, with your guide explaining why it more than just public transport. Then venture to the oldest station, one of the most beautiful in Russia, to admire its interior.

Then visit a local cafe—one which is unknown to most tourists—for a drink. Enjoy a traditional vodka or a warm cup of tea with your guide and group.
