We invite you to a walking tour of the secret places of Vasilievsky Island!


During the tour you will get to know the history of the development of Vasilievsky island, find out why it never became the “Second Venice”, see the luxurious mansions and signs of everyday life of Peter's time. We will show you Vasilievsky island (or simply "Vaska") - mysterious, dark, mystic, classically "Petersburgish" and walk through the secret courtyards of the oldest district of St. Petersburg.


Our tour route includes:


- old profitable houses of Bryullov, Suzor, Niedermiller, Soloveitchik, Beckel.

We shall see the most unusual apartment buildings of different times: sculptural groups, stucco, stained glass windows… and the sharp contrast of this luxury with the back doors steps of unusual form and courtyards, where old refrigerators and laundries are still preserved.


- walk through the labyrinths of back yards walking passages

Almost the entire route of this tour goes not along the wide and straight central lines, but along a whole system of passageways, bypasses, through secret gates and hallways. The guide will draw your attention to inconspicuous but very interesting details of facades, signs of pre-revolutionary life, and gloomy back yards, where detective series about bandits are still being filmed. We shall also walk along the narrowest street in St. Petersburg with a width of only 5,6 meters - Repin street!


- visit the "Places of power": visit an alchemist and make a wish

Petersburg is considered the mystical capital of Russia. We shall definitely look into the mysterious Courtyard of Spirits in the house where Nicholas Roerich, an artist and one of the greatest mystics of the last century lived, and make wishes there. Our walk will end next to the building of Dr. Pel's Pharmacy, where we shall learn the amazing history of the old pharmacy and Dr. Pel himself, who was considered an alchemist.
