Nothing can prepare you for St Petersburg. The former imperial capital of Russia is everything your glitz and glamour-filled fantasies have made it. The sights are best enjoyed from its canals, so don’t hesitate to jump into a boat to float by the Winter Palace, the Hermitage and St. Issac’s Cathedral. These are even better experienced at night, so take full advantage of our three-day stay to really delve into this city of Tsars.

"A thriving, flawlessly-designed seaside city, Helsinki is famously livable and inspiring. A regional powerhouse of outstanding design and creativity, Helsinki lies across a confetti scattering of 300 islands and skerries in the Gulf of Finland. Known for the light granite hue of its buildings - which lend the city a bright, whitewashed appearance - traditional buildings mingle seamlessly with bold new structures, showcasing Finland's celebrated design outlook. Helsinki Cathedral is the crowning glory - rising high over the city's waterfront with its pearly white domes gleaming. A city that reveres knowledge and creativity above all else, artworks and statues litter the streets and parks, honouring creative minds of the past. Read more Open parks offer space to lie back and soak up summer's sun, while sculptures like the abstract organs of the Sibelius Monument celebrate national heroes like composer Jean Sibelius - whose music gave Finland national identity in the quest for independence. Feel the stunning acoustics of the incredible Rock Church deep in your gut, as you witness a performance in this collaboration between man and nature. Built into the rock underground, the amphitheatre's soaring copper bowl roof is suspended dramatically on a bed of glass windows. One of Helsinki's many incredible buildings, the Design Museum offers a comprehensive insight into the city's balance of style, function and form. Helsinki's easy-going, forward-thinking way of life was hard fought for, and the spectacular Suomenlinna fortress rears out of the waves as a reminder of the historical struggles that have played out in this stretch of sea. The chain of forts covers six islands and was built to defend the archipelago when it fell under Swedish rule. Sail out to the quaint little beaches, and waterfront pathways that now lend a calm, peaceful ambience to this UNESCO World Heritage Site."

Elegant and exotic, St Petersburg somehow feels familiar and far away at the same time. Set on the Gulf of Finland, Russia’s second city has a more relaxed, European flavour than anywhere else in the country - and its fluctuating name reflects the rebellious city’s turbulent history. Envisioned by Peter the Great as a ‘window into Europe’, St Petersburg is a grand city of waterways and wide boulevards. Stacked with museums, galleries, soaring architecture and open squares, St Petersburg is Russia at its most inviting and culturally eclectic. See Faberge eggs in the museum, which holds nine of the legendarily precious objects. Or indulge in world-class culture at the Mariinsky Theatre, where ballerinas perform in a truly exquisite setting. Read more St Petersburg is known for its astonishing white nights during summer, a period when the sun never truly sets, and the city revels in light for 24 hours a day and the sky glows like a work of art, as it shifts from blue to pink. Many bars and restaurants work all night, while events and festivals feed off of the city’s extra energy. While St Petersburg has a modern, contemporary sheen - with lively bars and restaurants – the elegance of emperors’ palaces, mighty cathedrals and river walks lend a timeless, old-world grace. Beautiful gardens and canal cruises add to the laid-back appeal, but Russia's imperial capital also has a fiercely revolutionary history. See the Church of the Savior on Spilled Blood’s gloriously flamboyant, colourful onion domes, on the site where Emperor Alexander II was murdered. Winter Palace is another landmark of this city, located on Palace Square, where seismic historical events have unfolded – including the Bloody Sunday massacre and October Revolution.
