Abacus Guided Tours of St Petersburg and the Leningrad Region

We are a small enthusiastic team with a wealth of knowledge about St Petersburg and the surrounding Leningrad Region.

With over 8 years tour guiding experience and a native of St Petersburg, Marina Prudnikova is fully certified to take public guided tours around all of the Museums and Palaces within the St Petersburg metropolitan area. She is fluent in English as well as her native Russian. She also has extensive experience organising excursions to the surrounding areas.

Mark Bradley joined us from his native England after moving to St Petersburg a few years ago to join his extended family, having travelled extensively around the world and explored the length and breadth of this expansive country. He has a comprehensive knowledge of the history of St Petersburg and it's magnificent buildings and artefacts, and has a passion for the architecture, art and music of the city. He is also a keen historian on the subjects of Imperial Russia, Soviet, naval and military history.

Our highly experienced drivers take care of the driving so as to enable your tour guide to give you their undivided attention during your tour.

We have a selection of comfortable modern vehicles including people carriers, four wheel drives and minibuses. For the ultimate experience we can lay on helicopter and boat tours. And for an evening to remember; how about a private Champagne Boat tour?
