Monument to Saints Peter and Fevronia in Veliky Novgorod
Private Veliky Novgorod tours are an excursion to a city well-known to Russians but often overlooked by foreign tourists. This modest-size town lays claim to an extraordinary heritage: with history stretching back more than a millennium, it is widely believed to be the birthplace of Russia, and today the entire town is listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Private Veliky Novgorod tours are filled with ancient landmarks, including Yuriev Monastery, the oldest friary in Russia whose unmistakable royal blue domes welcome visitors to the complex; Sophia Cathedral, arguably the oldest church in all Russia; and Novgorod Kremlin, the oldest kremlin in the country which also offers scenic outlooks. Whether walking through its recreated wooden village or along its city streets, you will undoubtedly find yourself lost in time.
