in one of the small towns of Russian Karelia.
Our safaris last from a day to a week according to your choice. Our services cover it all, including snow motors.
You just have to have a valid passport and a visa to Russia.
How about a warm nightless summer night, a boat, your best friends, and a lake or rapids full of fish?
We can take you to an area where there are 400 kilometres of rapids in the same river.
You won't run into another fisher in every bend of the river. During our fishing trip, you will see a piece of the most beautiful Russia!
Area of lake Vodlozero is very interesting if you wish to go hunting. The bear and willor grouse bird populations are
abundant.
A local hunters union and an expertised travel agency take care of arranging the hunting grounds and
licences for you in co-operation with us. Excursions are priced according to what is being hunted.
We have also many other destinations for hunting. Come to experience an unforgettable excursion!
Close your eyes and imagine yourself hiking on the same path, which the Vikings travelled once.
Then monks used the same route and established monasteries on their way. Therefore the route is still called as
"The Monastery Road". Although,
There are also many other destinations for hiking. Many rivers, including the River Vodlozero are suitable for shooting rapids by rafts.
If you wish to go canoeing, we will head to Vodlozero, River Tsirka-Kemijoki, Lake Jänisjärvi, or the region of Suoju,
which is located near Petrozavodsk.
The most important sight in Russian Carelia is its nature. The largest lakes of Europe, located in Western Russia,
create a climate that cannot be found anywhere else. Come and experience it with us!
In Russia, the history of the country is represented in everyday life more than anywhere else in the world, and it is
highly respected. Also culture in its different forms is very important for Russian people. Theatre, music, and art
belong to the local life as naturally as supermarkets to ours. In last few years the church of Russia has
got its position back in the society, and churches and monasteries are now being reconditioned with limited funds.
In small towns like Petrozavodsk there are many things to see and to do. Especially, in the summer time there are many events.
For example, the town celebrations held in the end of June. The famous beach boulevard is the place for it. Large ships,
which make cruises from St. Petersburg to Petrozavodsk, dropping into Kizhi-isle and Valamo on their way, float stately in the
dock.
Restaurants in Petrozavodsk are good and the prices are low. If you like shopping, there are places from the
outdoor market place to fancy boutiques, and if you don't, there are also many nice pubs to go.
With a good party and reliable guides it is exciting to go and have an adventure in Russia.
Depending on the number of people, we make the excursions by a jeep, minibus, or tourist bus. According to
your choice, we can accommodate you in a hotel or even in a private Russian home.
We also arrange cruises in Lake Ladoga, Lake Ääninen and the Sea of Viena, and of course, we will take you wherever you
want to go! We plan and arrange your trip so that you will have pleasant memories of it many years afterwards.
