Katalin, Australia: Amazing trip

Russia was a very interesting country to explore! Having visited over 40 countries in 15 years, I have to confess I’ve come totally unprepared and discovered a universe so worth visiting. Colors, tastes, smells, so much history & art, and people are so warmhearted. I was totally smitten with the country and pleased by our travel arrangements. Our guide, Vadim, was very friendly and spoke good English. He was sharing interesting information about the country, its history, culture, modern life, gossips, politics etc. Our hotels were are OK. Great trip, good memories!
