Travel Russia
It seems that the biggest
countries have been my favorites and Russia is the largest on earth.
Cities that should be visited in the Russian Federation are Moscow,
St. Petersburg and Volgograd. The historical and cultural draw of
these places is undeniable. The Great Palace in St. Petersburg. The
Kremlin in Moscow and
the memorial complex dominated by an immense
sculpture of Mother Russia in Volgograd are on the must see list.
Budget
Russia is expensive.
Costs begin with a Lonely Planet Travel Guide.
Airfare, Visa services. Once in
country paying for food and a cheap place to sleep is a daily
priority. Ground Transportation such as
buses, metros and
trains, Entertainment, Gifts, souvenirs, admissions to monuments and
museums etc. You get the idea.
Airfare To Russia
You need to have booked air
transportation to submit with your visa application. Shop around. A
little Google search will help you ferret out the
best fare
for your trip. Example: $758 Round Trip from the Southeastern United
States?
Visa
Very important for Russia. 30 days is all you get on a Tourist Visa.
Visa services online are a place to go for one. Travel Document
Systems is a company to consider. Everything can be done online.
Mail off your passport and related paperwork to receive your visa by
return service (15 calendar days).

Say It In Russian
It's always a good idea to try and use some words
