Re: To Russia with Love (or not)?

Moscow is a fair distance from Helsinki. St Petersburg is a lot closer. When I was in HEL I remember seeing 1 day (long day) and 2 day tours to St Petersburg that used some kind of special transit visa. Dont know if it still exists or not.

I probably wouldnt spend too long in Tallinn. While it has a nice old town, it is fairly similar to others in the area. Be prepared for the boatloads of Finns bingeing on the (relatively) cheap booze.

Are you going to head up to Rovaneimi (or further north) for the midnight sun?
