Russia Tour Packages FAQs

Q. How long does it take to get a tourist visa for Russia, and what is its validity? A. Typically, the processing time for a Russian visa in the general category is between 4-5 working days. For an urgent visa, you need to wait for 2-3 working days. The processing time is the same regardless of the fact that you are applying for a single, double or multiple entry visa. You visa validity will depend on your date of travel, with validity getting stretched to the date of final exit from Russia. All tourist applications are processed through the embassy in New Delhi. Your application submission takes place on an appointment basis. Only for group applications, the appointment is taken as a group. Usually depending on your date of travel, it is scheduled 15 days ahead of your date of departure. Q. Is Russia safe for tourists? A. Contrary to popular notion, Russia, especially large cities like Moscow and St. Petersburg, is perfectly safe for tourists. However, it is advisable to be cautious of the surroundings and avoid shady or restricted areas. Q. Which airports has a flight to Russia from India? A. All flights to Russia are operated from Delhi’s Indira Gandhi International Airport. Delhi serves direct flight connectivity to Russia’s capital city Moscow via Russian carrier Aeroflot. There are no flights to Russia from other airports in India. Q. How long should my Russian vacation be? A. Russia is a tremendously vast nation with massive geographical extension that spans from Europe in the west to the far reaches of the east till Asia, and Arctic poles on the north. Firstly, you need to decide what places you want to cover, which any reputable travel agent like Yatra can guide you on that. That said, for most tourists, Moscow and St. Petersburg are the main attractions, and you need a week or so to see both cities. Q. What are the packing tips for Russia? A. For summer, bring comfortable clothes, plus a warm sweater or a light jacket for early mornings and evenings. Do carry comfortable walking shoes like sneakers. Don’t forget to bring an umbrella and a raincoat as summer often receives rainfalls. Pack heavy woollen clothes if arriving in winter as temperatures in winter plummet to below zero degrees. You will need a good fur cap, a warm coat, a scarf, gloves, thermal pants and boots for the snow. Women should bring a scarf or shawl in the bag since they might need to cover their head or shoulders to enter some Orthodox churches. And of course, always look for the weather forecast before your Russia trip to be able to wear the most appropriate clothes. Q. Will I be able to communicate in English when travelling in Russia? A. English is one of the most popular foreign languages in Russia. And, as a tourist, you can easily get around in English in large cities, plush hotels, good restaurants and the busier tourist areas of Russia. But, this is not always the case in regular shops, among public transport staff where Russian is primarily spoken and understood. A local English-speaking tour guide can be helpful in such an event. However, learning a few common phrases such as Hi, Thank You, Please, etc. can make your Russia tour much better. Q. What is the currency of Russia? A. The currency used in Russia is Ruble or Rouble. 1 Indian rupee is equal to 0.93 Ruble. Q. Are vegetarian dishes readily available in Russia? A. Traditional Russian diet is mostly based on meat along with root vegetables, potatoes and flour. However, today, many establishments are catering to vegetarian needs. Cities like Moscow and St. Petersburg have several eateries that serve a variety of salads and vegetable-based dishes, and grocery stores where you will find many meat-free options. Q. How expensive are Russia tour packages from India? A. If you compare with other European nations, Russia is cheaper for Indian travellers. As ruble is almost equal to rupee, that means going to Russia can be easily done within budget. Q. Can Russia be visited in winter? A. Russia is cold and covered in snow for most of the year. It is a good time to visit the country, as many activities are only possible during this season, such as ice trekking, dog sledging, skiing, etc. For instance, you can visit the frozen Lake Baikal over where you can walk, ride a dog sleigh, cross the lake by car, or do a marathon. To the northwest in Karelia, you can do snowmobiles, skiing, or watch the northern lights. You can visit ancient sites and Russian provinces, take a walk in the forest, do horse riding, indulge in a Russian Banya (steam bath) or embark on a scenic Trans-Siberian train ride. These are but only a handful of things you can enjoy in the Russian winter. Moreover, you will get the lowest prices possible on accommodation, entertainment and activities. That said, the warmer months May to August is the best choice to travel to Russia when the weather is beautiful and comfortable to be outdoors and enjoy the attractions. The summer months have longer days, which means attractions in major cities like Moscow and St. Petersburg have broader schedules. It is also the peak tourist season in the country.

Everything you need to know if you’re planning a trip to Russia right now

By Arundhati Ail

If you’ve been scrambling to figure out how to get to Russia after seeing celebrities vacation in the picturesque St. Petersburg on Instagram, it might help to cover all your bases before booking your flights. Here’s everything you need to know if you’re planning on travelling to Russia right now:

What are the visa requirements for Indians in Russia?

Travel to Russia is open to Indian nationals with valid visas, including tourist visas, as well as non-Indian citizens with a residence permit or any other document that proves their right to permanently reside in India.

What are the entry requirements for Russia?

If you plan to fly into any airport in Russia, you will need a medical certificate with a negative COVID-19 PCR test result, taken not more than three days before your arrival in the Russian Federation. The certificate should ideally be in English or Russian. If not, you can submit a certificate in Hindi, along with a Russian translation certified by a consular official of the Russian Federation.

You will also need to fill out a form provided by your flight attendants and undergo another COVID-19 test on arrival, after passing passport control. You don’t need to wait at the airport to get your results. Some regions may have self-isolation requirements for arriving passengers, so make sure to check with the regional office before your departure.

Which flights are flying to Russia from India right now?

KLM Royal Dutch Airlines, Lufthansa, Emirates and Etihad Airways are running flights from Mumbai and Delhi to Moscow and St. Petersburg.

What is the COVID-19 situation like in Russia?

Summer cafes and verandahs will remain open to non-QR code holders until 11 July. Find more information about Moscow’s QR code system here .

At A Glance

• For many international travelers, obtaining a visa for Russia can be tricky. It often requires an invitation for travel. These invitations can be bought from travel shops within the country. Make sure you research your options well in advance as acquiring the visa can take time. If you're requesting the visa from a country other than your own the situation can become trickier. It's best to work out the details before you leave home.
• Train travel is almost always your best option. The roads are often in poor condition, particularly in the more remote areas, and the driving safety record is quite poor. Trains are generally more comfortable, reliable, and safer.
• Russia has a long standing tradition in music. If you're visiting a city for a few days, try and get tickets to a classical music concert. The orchestras are quite impressive and the theaters are a fun place to experience the local culture.
• It's important to keep your currency very clean and crisp. It's easier to exchange bills that are not worn or torn. When you're given cash in change, flip through it and make sure the bills are in good condition as well.
• ATMs are available all cities and most small towns. Some ATMs do not accept foreign cards, so if you're having trouble finding one that does, go into an upscale hotel where you will likely have better luck. Most ATMs also have an English interface as well.

Facts about Russia That Make It worth Your Visit

Russia is considered as one of the most extraordinary and largest nations in the world, with an unrivaled bevy of cultural and historical significance, and landscapes that have actually motivated not only artists and poets but travelers for generations. For so long, Russia ran outbounds under the Soviet system and lots of people still consider it as difficult and inaccessible. Even after all that has happened, Russia has opened significantly, and those who have actually taken a tour to Russia have come back with unforgettable memories formed with their dear ones - whether it is the flashing spires of St. Petersburg, the amazing palaces of the Tsars or merely the haunting and special landscape of the steppes (do not take our words for granted and read genuine tourists evaluations). Here are some of the reasons why holiday seekers from India should go on a tour to Russia:

Location : Russia is the biggest country on the planet, and makes up one-seventh of the world's landmass and spans eight time zones. Not only this, it has twenty-two bodies of water and holds twelve seas within its borders. Its huge and complex selection of landscapes has actually created a fusion of forty national forests together with its forty UNESCO Biosphere Reserves. In Russia, you can find the oldest mountains worldwide, that is the Urals, and the deepest lake worldwide, that is Lake Baikal.

Culture : When it comes to the arts and culture of the place, Russia has actually always occupied a popular name across the global arena. The Bolshoi Theater and Pushkin Art Gallery in Moscow, the Mariinsky Theater and the Hermitage in St. Petersburg- are generally considered to be some of the major art institutions worldwide. In St. Petersburg alone there are 2,000 libraries,  45 art galleries, 80 nightclubs, 221 museums, 100 auditorium, 80 theaters, 62 cinema, and, and over 100 shows, shows and festivals each year.

History : Russia's history dates back to more than 1,150 years unlike India which holds its roots of history in the mythological era. For its culmination of Viking military management with the aspirations of individuals who commanded the terrific trading paths of Eastern Europe, it has been proclaimed as the largest nation in the globe. When it comes to wars, Russia was delved into more than 100 wars in cardinals, and ruled by more than 120 rulers.

What is the Best Time for a Tour to Russia?

Knowing about the perfect season before visiting a destination in advance, is necessary to avoid any sort of discrepancies coming way. Summers are the best time to visit Russia, which falls in the months of July and August. 

Weather conditions in St. Petersburg seem to be lower than in Moscow, that is the capital of Russia. July and August are the hottest months that even vary from 18 degrees to 30 degrees. Winter months are generally January with -6 degrees. The wettest months include October and November.

Weather conditions in Moscow frequently vary from 19 to 30 degrees in summers (July and August) and -8 degrees in winters (January).

The Best Places to Visit in Russia

Sochi : Sochi is a coastal town which is situated on the Black sea, at the foot of the Caucasus mountains. Termed as the "beach resort", it offers its travelers a large number of adventures like skiing and swimming in the summers.

Lake Baikal, Siberia : Baikal lake is known to the deepest of all other lakes in the world. It is the prettiest and the purest with stunning landscapes and crystal clear waters making the atmosphere serene and peaceful. During winters, you will find this lake all frozen when you can perform ice skating and skiing!

Red Square, Moscow : Moscow has an admirable center known as the Red Square which in the local language (Russian) means beautiful. The two specific reasons as to why this place witnesses utmost visitors every year is because of its rich culture and historical presence.

Krenitsyn volcano, Kuril islands of Onekotan : It is basically a volcano that had erupted in the 50's and then remained dormant. It is located in a lake that is situated in the center of an island. The views from here is unavoidable for the visitors.

St. Petersburg: Similar to Red Square, St. Petersburg is another brilliant attraction of Russia which is the most sought destination completing the trip to the place. It is known for its museums, monuments, palaces, hotels, restaurants, and other magnificent spheres.

Kazan : Kazan is a complete cosmopolitan spot with people who share diversity in cultures, languages, history, and religions. The place is an epitome of unity and brotherhood for its sustenance of diverse masses together!

Tips to follow for a visit to Russia

Flight Facility: The major international airports in Russia are in the borders of Moscow and St. Petersburg. It is essential to be acknowledged on your part that direct flights from India to Russia are really minimal, depending on the seasons. The flights that move from Delhi to Moscow and Delhi back are the most suitable both in terms of conveyance and prices. The cheapest trip is counted in the months of November, March, and August.

Packing picks: Carry both cash and cards for both may have their individual uses in certain points of time and in certain places. Get your cash converted into Russian currency to avoid unnecessary problems while traveling to places out there! Call the concerned bank before you leave for vacation, so that there is no obstruction while you are in Russia.

Clothes to carry: Clothes depend upon the season you choose to travel to the place. If your trip is during the summer season, then you can carry lightweight loose summer fabric clothes which will be both comfortable and soothing. If you are traveling to Russia in the winter, then you must carry warm clothes. Do not forget to carry ample sneakers, shoes, jackets, and sweatshirts.

Note: If you do not want to stress for the laundry services, then you can carry more clothes, though laundry services will be provided in the hotel where you will be staying.

Mandatory Documents: If you are traveling to Russia, then make sure that you cannot enter Russia for a number of times on a single entry visa. For this, you will be requiring a multi-entry visa. As the visas have validation of 30 days, ensure that your visa is valid according to your departure date and far from the expiration date as well. Always carry two copies of the documents (passport and visa) before leaving, in case needed at any point of time.

Electric Plugs : Russia mainly uses 2 round European outlets. You can easily find an adapter at an electronics shop or pharmacy offline or online. Russia utilizes 220-volt electrical energy (America uses 110 volts) and most electrical gadgets support both. Look on the back of your power adapter to discover its supported voltage. There, if you see the variety between "110-240 volts", then it means that your gadgets work and gives you a green signal. If it says "110 volts", then it will not work.

Phones and sim cards: To utilize your phone during your travel to Russia, either trigger worldwide roaming or check your phone with the concerned specialist. The first is simpler yet progressively expensive. Opening your phone empowers you to utilize local Russian calling services and methodologies. A phone call made thusly from Russia to India will cost about Rs 60 - Rs. 80/Minute, while Indian cell phone organizations can charge up to Rs.200/minute for overall roaming in Russia.

If you want to purchase a sim card right there in Russia, on the occasion of your visit, then you can easily do it, with your passport acting as proof. 

Medication is Mandatory: You can never avoid your health while traveling to a completely new place. Health turning bad is inevitable, so it is up to you to keep your medications inside your bag so that you need not deal with the loss of good health during a stunning trip. If you do not deal with any major disease or health issue, then you can carry the basic medicines that are needed, but if you are on prescription medicines, then ascertain that you have carried them all in larger quantities, to avoid risks. 

Tip Offering Regulations in Russia

• Though offering tips in Russia is a trend in Russia, but the amounts are smaller rather than in other parts of Europe. 
• You can offer some gratuity to your guide who accompanies you throughout the trip or travel to Russia (let’s say, $25 for every 8 hours of work and $15 for 4 hours of work).
• You can give a tip to the chauffeur or driver who transfers you from one place to another throughout your sightseeing ventures (let’s say, $8-12 for 8 hours of work).
• Decide your tip to be given to the guide and drivers throughout your trips according to the categorization of a group tour or an individual tour.
• When you are out for a river cruise, then you will find out a special box at the reception desk indicating you to drop a tip for the crew (drop from $10-15 daily depending on how much you enjoyed your cruise).

Is Travel to Russia Safe?

This is a run of the mill concern, whether Russia is protected and a safe place to visit for a vacation. It's not an underdeveloped nation and the 90s do not exist anymore. Russia has a working power and a civilized, and amicable populace. 

Russia is completely safe for you to travel, anyway there are fundamental precaution estimates that you have to take when visiting any nation. To begin with, don't carry your passport with you- either leave it at the hotel or on the ship. Always carry a duplicate of your passport and visa with you. On the off chance that you are stood up to by a Russian police officer (which is somewhat impossible), then show the duplicate of your identification will be adequate.

You can never predict the pick-pocketing activities for which you should always keep an eye on safety measures where you take advice from the guide or representative through the Russia Tour Package or the hotel owner. It is better on your part to not talk to strangers so that you do not involve unnecessary obstacles even by mistake. 

Avoid carrying more than $100 with you while you are out for any sightseeing ventures in and around Russia. Keep your cash and card in different pockets, and if possible divide the money with your companion throughout the travel. It is better if you carry all your belongings in zipped pockets or buttoned pockets which keep them safe and make it hard for the pick-pockets to reach out. 

Even after so many efforts, you fail to keep your money or any other belongings safe, then do the needful mentioned below:

• Alert your guide as soon as possible, for he or she will take the necessary action
• Make a call on the emergency number and then your bank to obstruct the cards that have been stolen.

E-visas are accepted in Russian regions like Moscow, Saint Petersburg, and Kazan. An e-visa usually takes 2-4 days to be processed, while a visa from the embassy will take longer.

• If you want to visit multiple cities during your trip to Russia, major travel hubs such as Moscow and Saint Petersburg offer cheap domestic flights to many other regions in Russia.
• New Year’s Eve is a major celebration in Moscow, with thousands of visitors and locals flocking to Red Square. This means that it may be harder to find a direct flight from India to Russia over the New Year period and that flights in late December and early January may be more expensive.

The dos and don'ts of visiting Russia for the first time

Sep 24, 2021 • 6 min read

These top tips can help you make the most of your visit to Russia © MarinaDa / Shutterstock

The world’s largest country beguiles and fascinates with its world-class art, epic landscapes and multifaceted society. You may also find that perseverance  and a sense of humour will go a long way in enriching your first-time Russian travel experience. From the things you absolutely must do before you travel to the things we recommend that you steer clear of once you're there, here are some top tips for avoiding common pitfalls when visiting  Russia .

DO apply for a visa early and register on arrival

Visas must be applied for in advance by all visitors. How you do that varies depending on your nationality and where in Russia you are traveling to. Travelers from many countries, including the UK and US, need to apply in-person at an embassy or consulate and provide biometric data. An e-visa may be an option for passport-holders from 52 countries, which include many EU travelers, as well as those from China, India, Japan, Singapore, and some Middle Eastern countries. However these are temporarily suspended due to COVID-19.  Check with your local Russian embassy or consulate for confirmation, or get up-to-date information here . 

You can apply at the last moment, but it may cost you a fortune. Start the application process at least a month before your trip and consider using a specialist travel agency to arrange visas and make key transport bookings. Every visitor to Russia should have their visa registered within seven days of arrival, excluding weekends and public holidays. The obligation to register is with your hotel or hostel, or landlord, friend or family if you’re staying in a private residence. Also keep in mind that your visa entry and exit dates will be written according to European calendar convention (day/month/year) as opposed to the American style, so don't get mixed up or over-stay your visa. 

DO check the events calendar

During major holidays – the first week in January (between New Year’s Day and Orthodox Christmas) and the first week or two of May (around Labour Day, or May Day, and Victory Day) – Moscow and St Petersburg empty out. Despite this, both cities are festive during these times, with parades, concerts and other events, but museums and other institutions may have shortened hours or be shut altogether. May to September is the best time to visit St Petersburg but mid-June is when the city is irresistible, with the White Nights revelry at its peak.

DO dress up for a night out

We can’t guarantee you’ll make it past Moscow’s "face control" (the term comes from clubs trying to "save face" by only letting in patrons who meet their image standards) but you can better your chances of getting in to the top clubs by making a sartorial effort – high heels and skirts for women, all black for men. Russians also make an effort when they go to the theater or a posh restaurant – you should do likewise to fit in.

DO learn the Cyrillic alphabet

Making an effort to familiarize yourself with the Cyrillic alphabet repays tenfold. It will help you decode street and metro signs, maps, timetables and menus, even if you don't know many Russian phrases. While digital tools like the Russian Metro app  and Google Translate make it easier than ever to visit countries where you don't speak or read the language, brushing up beforehand can reduce frustration and endear you to the locals.

Rideshare options such as Taxovichkoff and Yandex Taxi upended the taxi industry in Russia as much as anywhere else. That means less pressure to know the Russian phrases you'd need to hails cabs in the streets, but it still is wise to learn key phrases in case there's a navigation mixup, like the address of your hotel or intersection of your short-term apartment rental. 

DO expect to spend your money

Moscow is one of the most expensive cities in the world and St Petersburg is not a cheap destination either; wallet-thinning shock is common at many restaurants and hotels. As a foreigner you’ll also find yourself paying more than a Russian for some museums – often as much as 10 times the price Russians pay. If you’re a student, flashing your ID can save you money at museums and other institutions.

You can save on dining out a few different ways. Many restaurants offer "business lunches" that are great value and very filling. Several years ago the trend for " anti-cafes " cropped up in larger Russian cities, and there are still a few where you pay by the minute for coffee, biscuits, and a little wi-fi time. 

Food markets  that blend farmers markets and food halls are popular, and are often found in architecturally significant vintage buildings. You can shop for ingredients to cook yourself or sample cuisines from around the world from dozens of  vendor stalls. Many food markets are less expensive than sit-down restaurants and let you try a wider variety of local and international dishes. 

DON’T ask for a mixer with your vodka

Few traditions in Russia are as sacrosanct as the drinking of vodka , and any foreign notions of drinking it with orange juice or tonic are anathema to your average Russian. If you need something to wash it down, you can chase it with a lemon, a pickle or, perhaps, a separate glass of water. Vodka is drunk in swift shots, not sipped. It’s traditional (and good sense) to eat a little something after each shot, so order some vodka snacks too.

DON’T be disrespectful in a church

Working churches are open to everyone, but as a visitor you should take care not to disturb any devotions or offend sensibilities. There's no face control, but women should cover their heads and bare shoulders when entering a church. In some monasteries and churches it’s also required for a woman to wear a skirt – wraps are usually available at the door. Men should remove their hats in church and not wear shorts.

DON’T take photos of government buildings

Be very careful about photographing stations, official-looking buildings and any type of military-security structure – if in doubt, don’t snap! Travelers have been arrested and fined for such innocent behaviour.

DON’T be surprised if you’re stopped by the police

Although new laws were passed in 2011 that ostensibly reconfigured Russia's police and their interactions with the public, it's still wise to carry a photocopy of your passport, visa and registration – not to mention travel documents that indicate how and when you'll return home – and present them when an officer demands to see your documents. You may also see special tourist police near major attractions like the Red Square , who have special training and language skills to assist travelers.

If you're issued a fine, Russian authorities might expect an "unofficial payment" to expedite their service on the spot, as opposed to handling the matter later at the station. Either way, always ask for an official receipt, and consider carrying the phone number for your country's embassy in case matters get more complicated.

All You Need To Know About THE BEST Northern Lights Tour From India

In March and September near the equinoxes, the Earth’s magnetic field lets solar particles interact with the atmosphere, creating the aurora seasons!

Recent Phenomenon Of Solar Storms In 2024

In May 2024, there were a series of intense solar storms. This phenomenon was witnessed on Earth by a significant increase in the intensity and visibility of both the Aurora Borealis and Aurora Australis. 

As a result of these intense solar storms, the northern lights were visible from locations far away from the North and South Poles. In the northern hemisphere, the aurora was visible around Europe, North America, Northern China and even in Northern India.

Those who experienced our Northern Lights Tour from India during this time got to witness the rarer colours of the aurora, including violet and white. Scientists are still unclear as to the causes of solar storms.
