Historical Walking Tour and Local Cuisine Sampling
A fun and educational outing where you and your partner will get to explore the city's rich history by foot and treat yourselves to local delicacies.
- Begin your date by mapping out the historical highlights that you want to visit. Walk hand-in-hand and enjoy the journey as much as the destinations. Immerse yourselves not only in the stunning architectural beauty of Saint Petersburg but also in the rich history that each step uncovers.
- After a few hours of exploration, it's time to fuel up. Saint Petersburg offers sampling tours where you can taste different local dishes at various eateries without breaking the bank. Indulge your tastebuds and discover your new favorite Russian cuisine.
- Wrap up the date by sitting by the Neva River, watching the beautiful city night lights while sharing thoughts and experiences from the date. It's the perfect ending to a day filled with beautiful sights, delectable food, and quality time together.
Preparation steps:
- Do some research on the city's notable attractions. A good read-up on the history of the places will add to the charm during your tour. Pack essentials such as bottled water, sunglasses, sunscreen, comfortable shoes for walking, and a map of the city.
- Prepare a list of local eateries that are known for their local delicacies and make a plan to stop by each during your walking tour. Some of these restaurants might happen to be near the monuments you're visiting.
- Don't forget to charge your phones or bring a good camera to capture some memories along the way.
Some tips:
- Saint Petersburg can have unpredictable weather. Always have an umbrella or a raincoat handy. Try visiting the monuments early in the day to avoid crowds.
- When it comes to trying local food, don't hesitate to ask the locals for recommendations. They’ll be more than happy to advise you.
- Lastly, enjoy the day at slow pace. Rushing would make the experience less enjoyable. The key to a great walking tour is a balance between sightseeing and relaxation.
