Ich habe meine Transfers vom Flughafen zum Hafen in St.Petersburg und vom Hafen zum Airport in Moskau über Natalia Zolotareva gebucht. Der Kontakt war hervorragend. Die Transfers wurden pünktlich und zu voller Zufriedenheit durchgeführt. Vielen Dank an Natalia und Ihre Fahrer.

Nun liegt unsere Reise nach St. Petersburg schon 6 Wochen zurück und immer noch bekomme ich von meinen Mitreisenden die positiven Rückmeldungen an dieses wunderbare Erlebnis. Ich von meiner Seite bin ganz besonders begeistert über die perfekte Führung nach Pushkin und Pawlovsk durch unsere Führerin Natalia. Dieser Tag war besonders eindrucksvoll. Bestens haben auch die Organisation zum Theater, den Tickets und die notwendigen Transfers funktioniert, was sicherlich auch mit der sehr kompetenten Betreuung durch Frau Natalia (Manager: Ostwest.com) zusammenhängt. Ich kann dieses Büro in St. Petersburg nur weiterempfehlen.
First of all I'd like to say thanks for the perfect organisation of our program.
Our first day in Pushkin, especially the lunch and the folklore was enjoed very much by my friends. The tour guide you have choosen for us - Natalia - was very well prepared and informed us about everything we wanted to know, besides her perfectly spoken German and her guiding through the palaces and parks. Definitely, she did a very well job! If possible, say hello to here. Thank you.
The buses to and from the theater also were very suitable and always in time - as well as the bus to Pushkin!
Actually, we spent a very nice time in St. Petersburg and whenever I have again the possibillity to organise a similar trip, I hope I can contact you again.
Yours sincerely,

Ulan-Udeprint version
General City Information
The city center
Ulan-Ude is the capital of the Republic of Buryatiya. It is situated 5532 km away from Moscow and 75 km to the south-east of Lake Baikal. The population of Ulan-Ude is 353 000 and the whole population of Buryatiya is close to one million. In 1666 Cossacks built a settlement at the Uda River. It was called Udinskoye. Due to its favorable economical location at the trade routes to Mongolia and China the settlement developed very fast. It received its town charter in 1690. In the 1730s the town was renamed as Verchneudinsk. After a terrible fire in 1878 the town was totally rebuilt. In July 1934 its name has been changed again, this time to Ulan-Ude (Red Uda).
Local people in traditional costumes
Buryatiya is the center of the Russian Buddhism. Not far away from Ulan-Ude, next to the village Ivolga, is the largest Buddhist monastery in Russia—Dazan. Ulan-Ude has an ethnographical museum with expositions dedicated to the history of the three ethnicities living in this region: Evenks (the natives of this republic), Buryats (Mongolian tribe that traditionally follows Tibetan Buddhism), and Russians.
The Eastern Sayan
Ulan-Ude still has many buildings of VIII and XIX centuries, such as Gostiny Dvor, Odigitrievsky Cathedral, old merchants’ stalls and dwelling houses. The town also boasts a huge statue of Lenin. People say that this statue is in Ulan-Ude because no other town of Russia wanted it.
