On our private Nizhny Novgorod tours you’ll come face-to-face with an idyllic and ever-evolving city which has helped to shape the trajectory of Russia. Closed to foreigners for decades, the city flung its gates open to tourists in the 1990s and ever since has been enticing guests to its dreamy riverbanks and regal boulevards. In this city where religion, aristocracy and mercenary pursuits have long intermingled freely, historical points of interest are offered for every taste.
Bolshaya Pokrovskaya Street, gorgeous in every season, welcomes you to walk down memory lane, while at the famed Nizhny Novgorod Fair long-held traditions are perpetuated in 21st-century fashion. Alexander Nevsky Cathedral’s whimsical exterior and awe-inspiring inner décor never cease to amaze, and history buffs will not want to miss Annunciation Monastery, one of the oldest buildings in the city. Be sure to clime Chkalov Stairs, the highest stairwell in all of Russia, before stepping into the shoes of 19th-century nobility at Rukavishnikov's Estate.
If your curiosity is piqued, we invite you to go beyond reading into reality with our private Nizhny Novgorod tours!
