In connection with the approach of summer, the RZD company has announced the resumption of multimodal routes for tourists in the "train + ship" format to the most popular destinations. Passengers are invited to plan a trip on the routes Sortavala - Valaam, Petrozavodsk - Kizhi, Veliky Novgorod - Vzvad, St. Petersburg - Peterhof, St. Petersburg - Oreshek Fortress, St. Petersburg - Kronstadt (Fort Island).
"The schedules of speedboat and passenger train services are conveniently synchronized, which significantly saves travelers' time. A ticket for a motor ship can be purchased both separately from a train ticket and together with it in a single order in the RZD Passengers mobile application, on our website and at ticket offices. If a ticket with a transfer is purchased, when choosing a route, you must check the box "Find flights with transfers," the company's telegram channel says.
In addition, a new route has appeared along the rivers and canals of St. Petersburg.
"Daytime and evening excursions, as well as a night cruise (you will see the bridges over the Neva open) are available. To purchase a ticket for a boat trip on the website and in the application, you need to select the route points: St. Petersburg - Walk along the rivers and canals," RZD said.
