White Nights & opening bridges
White Nights & Bridge Opening Boat Tour in Saint Petersburg
The highlight of the Petersburg summer — from the water. A night that never fully darkens, the drawbridges over the Neva and a boat with a captain just for your group.
The opening bridges are what draws people to Saint Petersburg in summer. From the embankment you see them in a crowd and from afar; from the water you see them up close, unhurried, with no one in your way. The boat takes you to the heart of it.
We plan the route around the bridge-opening schedule so you catch it at the best moment. The White Nights add a light you will not find anywhere else.

A sky that never darkens — a perfect backdrop for photos and for the evening itself.
