Excursion or photo excursion "Peterhof - the capital of fountains"

Description:

60 kilometers from St. Petersburg is one of my favorite places - Peterhof Park. The combination of northern nature, European architecture, views of the bay and ingenious engineering solutions makes this place completely unique and certainly causes delight.

​

During the tour, we will walk through the park of one of the royal suburbs, see magnificent examples of garden and park art, enjoy flower gardens, architectural highlights and talk about how residents and guests of summer residences spent their time. I will tell you who loved this park, and who preferred the Tsar’s Village, and why.

​

You will not only have a personal guide, but also a photographer who will catch your emotions, looks and smiles while you enjoy the tour or try your luck in the fountains - jokes. You can go dry, but do you need to? The kids know the answer! That is why I recommend taking a change of clothes for children, they cannot be discouraged from such fun.

And I'm going to take my camera and I'm going to take some bright photos for you.

 
In addition, entrance tickets to the Lower Park are paid for you and for me: 600 rubles per person (for citizens of the Russian Federation), children under 14 years of age for free (but be sure to issue a ticket!), there are other benefits, the Pushkin Card works.

Tickets to the park are better to buy online, on the website of Peterhof (read carefully on the website about the number of tickets in one order and the issuance of free or discounted tickets for children).

(Not necessary to print tickets, you can scan the barcode from the phone)
Sales open 2 weeks before the date of visit. When buying, you will need to specify the name. Tickets will be valid for entry on the selected day.

 

How to get there:
Taxi (about 1200p one way from the center, drive more than an hour)
Meteors in Peterhof (from the Palace or Senate embankment to the park about 40 minutes).
! Discount on everything! water walks in St. Petersburg (including meteors in Peterhof)
when booking tickets on the websitewww.boattour.ru enter a promo code without punctuation marks and spaces: photostroll
Tickets for the meteor do not need to print out, you will receive a code in an SMS or e-mail, you will call it on the pier and get a pass. Important! It works only on the site, when buying at the pier does not work. Come to the pier in advance, you need to have time to print your passage at the cash register!
When buying a meteor ticket, you need to be more careful, take into account the start time of our excursion (travel time is 35-40 minutes). As soon as you buy your meteor tickets, let me know the time of arrival, I'll fit in.
I recommend bringing water and a snack. This point is not taken seriously, and, as practice shows, in vain! The park does not have a large selection of snack options and is quite expensive, as well as queues!
There are squirrels in the park who love to be fed nuts!
Weather permitting, you can try your luck in the fountains. To do this, it is better to take a change of clothes so that you can freely get wet through.
And after our tour, you can still stay in the park, walk, go to museums and pavilions, which I will tell you about (you can schedule a couple of hours with a good weather forecast).
