Krasnodar today has turned into a noisy and modern metropolis. However, the city was not always like that. Learn about the development of the city and its boring history during a tour of the central part of the city. Get acquainted with the main attractions of the southern capital. Among them are the monument to Catherine the Great, the square of the famous poet Alexander Pushkin, the Alexander Arch and many others. A walk along the main street of Krasnodar, Krasnaya Street, will help you feel the vibe of the city. The tour is guided by a local citizen. It is a unique opportunity to hear urban myths, visit places off the beaten track and have one on one cultural experience

Inclusions: Air-conditioned vehicle, Bottled water

Exclusions: Museum addmission fee 350 Rub/per (appr. 5 Euro)

Very pleasant walk to "Горячии Ключ" to enjoy the beautiful colors of the autumn of the countryside not far from Krasnodar. Maxim, the guide, has an excellent level of English and is unbeatable for any question about the region.

We booked for the Swan Lake ballet on 25 December 2019, with travel date on 24 May 2020, through U Visit Russia. . Due to the Covit19 pandemic we were unable to visit Russia nor attend the ballet. Two tickets were purchased for US$465.50. U Visit Russia was advised of not being able to attend and agreed to pay a full refund but there would be a delay due to the number of cancellations. After some time no refund was forthcoming and U Visit Russia was again contacted by email and we were advised that due to the volume of cancellations the refund would be credited to our credit card within 9 weeks. Nothing and again they were contacted by email but no response was ever received. No refund was ever received. Nothing!! The lesson is to beware of ever dealing with this company.
