4.5Saimaa Canal(214 reviews) - From Lake Saimaa to St. Petersburg without a Russian Visa Bodies of Water
This tour was excellent. We departed from Lappeenranta, Finland on the M/S Carelia early in the morning. Kirsi - Marja our tour guide on the boat was awesome. She answered all of our questions and could be spotted cleaning tables and any other tasks on board. She was always smiling and happy. She and her crew were soooo great. The cruise was about 6 hours long and we travelled through many locks on the Saimaa Canal. We arrived in Vyborg, Russia where we cleared Russian customs and then met Kristina. She was soooo much fun and so helpful. Our 2 nights in St. Petersburg were amazing. We then travelled back to Vyborg where we shopped at the outdoor and indoor markets. I totally recommend this tour. It was hassle free and great fun.See more..

4.0Likolampi(1 review) - Двигаясь на север Bodies of Water Направляясь на север по трассе Виа Карелия, можно остановиться в небольшой провинциальной Париккале. Самым большим озером в этих местах является Ликолампи, с оборудованным летом пляжем, а зимой здесь можно прокатиться на снегоходах прямо по переходящим одно в другое озёрам Сайменской водной системы.See more..
