Ciao a tutti, mi chiamo Svetlana, sono una guidea privata a San Pietroburgo in italiano.

Sono madrelingua russa, laureata in lingua e letteratura italiana e organizzo delle escursioni per San Pietroburgo ormai da 13 anni.

Sono delle visite guideate all'Ermitage, Peterhof, Palazzo di Caterina (Sala d'Ambra), Chiesa del Sangue Versato, Cattedrale di Sant'Isacco, Fortezza di San Pietro e Paolo, giro in barca per i canali di San Pietroburgo.

Organizzo dei tour individuali e di gruppo per coppie, famiglie con bambini, studenti. Garantisco accesso prioritario ai musei di San Pietroburgo (biglietto salta fila all'Ermitage ecc.). Organizzo transfer dall'aeroporto di San Pietroburgo, trasporto (taxy, minivan, pullman).

Le mie escursioni non sono assemblati in maniera industriale “con lo stampino”, ciò nonostante vi ritrovate un eccellente rapporto qualità prezzo. Gli itinerari sono stati tutti sperimentati, eppure ogni viaggio ha un qualcosa che lo rende unico.

Ни разу не пожалела, что не обратилась к другим гидам! Вот это шик! Высочайший профессионализм, на каждом этапе Светлана общалась с нами как с VIP-гостями, организовала и продумала каждую мелочь! Лично мне легче работать так, а не переживать за билеты, за то, понравится ли нашим партнерам из Коста-Рики обед, будет ли им комфортно, успеем ли мы. Стоит упомянуть также уровень языка. Браво!

Подача материала была очень живой, увлекательной и понятной. Было видно, что человек действительно любит свой город и умеет передать это чувство другим. Экскурсия прошла на одном дыхании!

Grazie, Svetlana! Прошел почти год, а мы с мужем и дочкой все вспоминаем, как были в Питере, как промокли насквозь на Стрелке Васильевского острова, круассаны с лососем из Эрмитажа и твои интересные экскурсии. Хотим вернуться, планируем скучаем!!!!
BACI ALL'ITALIANA!!!

Анатолий 16.04.2025

Безупречно составлены экскурсии, все продумано так, чтобы ни о чем не думать и наслаждаться городом. Особенно хочу подчеркнуть глубокие познания гида в истории Российской Империи. Вот это высший класс! Итальянцам тоже все понравилось, но мы с супругой отметили, что давно не наслаждались такой интересной беседой с гидом по родному городу!

Я итальянец, давно живу в России в Москве со своей семьей. Хотел показать красивый Петербург своим папе и маме, они прилетели с Италии на три дня. Светлана прекрасный гид! Итальянский сто раз лучшее, чем я говорю по русски! Sei the best!!
