Tourist reviews

Recently, our excursion took place on the abandoned estates. And I can say that we definitely did not regret! We would never see it yourself and did not know what kind of beauty there are or were at us very close to the house. We as modern people so often strive to other countries and other continents, but as often we do not know and do not appreciate our history, our own places. We are very grateful to George for our enlightenment. I really liked that he not only fulfilled the program, but he went beyond her borders, showed and talked about the attractions that were on the way and not very much. It can be seen that George is sick for the endangered heroes of his excursion, makes his work with the soul. I really hope that such informal excursions will be as much as possible as possible, which will allow us and our children to know our wonderful city is much deeper and it will also be mischievously)

We went to this excursion, relying on the description and reviews, I was very expelled to a fascinating journey, but, as they say, apparently not fate. The excursion at our request was reduced before visiting two objects. 4 hours excursions for 20 minutes per object and three hours twenty minutes on the road. Georgy, it can be seen that a person knows and interested, telling and led in parallel can not, several times we almost got into an accident. Therefore, in the course of the movement, we have not been asked about anything. PBSolute short description On the spot. My foreign guests called it the worst time in St. Petersburg, and so I wanted to show them something unusual. The idea is interesting, but the organization "Russian". If you hire a driver, so that you can tell in the course of the movement, and more comfortable car, probably the impression will be more positive.

Super Tour from Start to Finish. The Paces Were Wonderful, and Were Brought to Life by Georgi, Who Was Very Prepared, and Knew Detail Upon Detail. HE ALSO SPEAKS English, Which Was a Bonus We Hadn "T Expected.

Wonderful excursion from beginning to end. The places for which Georgius spent us simply came to life. George told a lot interesting facts, accompanied the story with unique old photos, answered any questions. At the same time spoke in English, which was a bonus that we did not expect. Many thanks!

I was very waiting for this tour! For six months before the trip already knew that I would definitely visit her! Were together with my husband. Very comfortably spent 8 hours. Georgi reading man, no question I didn't put him in a dead end, quoted poets, told me except facts, also Legends, speculation. Interesting, infinitely, calmly and very beautiful !!! Very! Everywhere we walked around, they walked not only the estates themselves, but also the adjacent parks. Georgiy everywhere was with us, drove the secret trails, commented ... and at the same time it was It is immellent and unobtrusive, we had personal time for contemplation and photographing. Forest excursion, I advise everyone!

Hello! Can I write a response to the user Artem on this review?
Dear Artem! I am very sorry that you did not like the excursion. However, you need to cancel a few moments: you did not warned me that on the excursion you only have 4 hours instead of the scheduled 8. You asked me to pick you up from the hotel in Nevsky and I went to meet you, which increased the road to leaving the city for an hour. This excursion always ends at the Moscow metro. However, your acquaintances needed much further and we spent another hour of time in traffic to just take them from Moscow to the desired address. Thus, 2 hours and even more of 4 that you yourself took away from the very beginning to the excursion went to the separation of your guests and not at my fault.
I do not know what you mean by accident, but we did not get into it and in 10 years I have been driving, thank God, there were no accidents. Finally, you paid me a much less sum that is indicated for a tour and I, as you put it, purely in Russian agreed with it, although the time of the excursion was reduced not in my fault, and in the end I spent no less than usual. I also disagree with the fact that I talked little about the objects, I told constantly, just your guests and you went to different directions and did not listen to me at the same time.
I think that for country trips you need to better plan your time. I wish you pleasant impressions and travels!

Wonderful excursion from beginning to end. The places for which Georgius spent us simply came to life. George told many interesting facts, accompanied the story with unique old photographs, answered any questions. At the same time spoke in English, which was a bonus that we did not expect. Many thanks!

The excursion really liked. The movement plan is well drawn up, the historical material is perfectly represented, this is the story of the estates and their inhabitants, and additional photos, and a wonderful thing for the future. I would like to have to repeatedly visit these places, for example, in the summer, take a walk in the parks, feel the grandeur of the former pearls of architecture, feel the spirit of the era. Of course, at the sight of the modern state of buildings, the soul covers quiet sadness. It is a pity that talking when really worthwhile and beautiful is destroyed. George thank you so much, and for the organization, and for the presentation of the story, and in general for the opening of such a direction.

we recommend this excursion! Thanks a huge guide George for interesting narrations, careful to everyone. The day just flew))) It is a pity that no one restores the estate that they are really abandoned and after some years they will not become completely (((I would also like to mention and say thanks for dinner in Kirch from Father Paul, everything was very He is welcome and mentally. Be sure to visit this excursion, you will not regret.

Thank you very much for the tour! Ordered as a gift for an amateur abandoned places. The gift was successful, an amateur is delighted! :) Atmospheric places in which you want to return. Interesting program. Now we are waiting for "traveling to the world of abandoned ussing-2"! :)

No stops for the toilet. What you warn does not matter when "you want to the toilet." Very little description of organizational moments. Guide knows a good story. But when you put your finger on the tablet with the unauthorized seams, the guys hang on the guide, and the view of him, as if he drank until the morning, it lifestates the impressions in general from the excursion. A lot of combustion, almost at the end of each sentence.
In general: the objects of visiting impressions are good, it is a pity that everything is so quickly destroyed, and no one is engaged in recovery. Route save. Guide can be replaced. Thank you.

Dear Anastasia, thanks for four stars! I will definitely take into account your criticism and will focus on the departure of the restroom. Our route is built in such a way that in the middle of the journey the whole group lunch and visits the restroom in Cirche. There are two restrooms "M" and "F." If additional requests come, I usually stop at the gas station. I will, as I said, emphasize this moment in the bus, so that everyone knows that we have a toilet!)

To the rest, I will give such an example. Unfortunately, I do not remember you personally, but I remember that during the last excursion one girl was very dissatisfied with the fact that he paid 200 rubles for dinner of three dishes, but she didn't like the pasta in the fleet and she wanted another dish. There was no dining room and other dishes in Cirche. But especially for her, the wife of the priest welded a buckwheat porridge with meat and the whole group waited until the client would graduate.

I brought this example only to say that we really try to do you like everything. I personally developed this without exaggeration a unique route, gathered information about the collapsing buildings and will try to make an excursion as best as possible, given your criticism.

Excellent Eccussky! Time flew unnoticed. Thanks Georgia!

Thank you so much for the excursion "Abandoned estates." I really liked everything: excellent organization, comfortable bus, interesting and erudite guide, majestic estates, gorgeous nature, weather and delicious lunch in Kirch John the Baptist .... All this gave me a good mood, wonderful day off and nice pictures. I recommend to everyone!

I visited a fascinating excursion "Abandoned Manors" and remained not just satisfied, but under a huge impression! Wonderful George Guide, a magnificent organization, a stunning event and even the weather, I was pleasantly surprised! Time in the way flew unnoticed, I still remember my little adventure)) Free time For photographing, it also turned out to be a very good bonus, photographs from the excursion turned out very picturesque. Thank you so much!

I really liked everything, thank you very much
