wanderlust8888 Posted September 9, 2014 #1 Share Posted September 9, 2014 My husband & I are looking into booking a Jewish Heritage Tour while in St Petersberg (July 24 & 25) thru SPG. Our cruise is on the Regal Princess departing Copenhagen on July 18, 2015. How do we find other couples to share this tour with us so it is more cost effective? I cannot find it listed on the roll call. Appreciate any help. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Go to the thread (click on it)I provided the link back in Post #2. Then just "Post Reply", just like you replied to my earlier comment.

Hi, We will be in St Petersburg on May 27 & 28 on the HAL Prinsendam and would really like to set up this tour for our cruise.

Rare YoungDubFan Posted September 11, 2014 #13 Share Posted September 11, 2014 I used Alla Tours for a 3 day stop in St. Petesburg this summer. They were wonderful and very easy to work with. The nice thing with them is if you book a group tour, they guarantee that the tour will go, no matter how many people eventually sign up and they don't increase the price per person.

Glaciers Posted September 11, 2014 #14 Share Posted September 11, 2014 We did a tour with SPB last May in St Petersburg. Besides meeting another couple on the roll call thread SPB also helped and added two more couples to our group for us. It may be a bit early yet but SPB will begin receiving the same type of inquiries trying to match others with the tour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are considering a private tour and are looking for another couple to join. We changed our sail date to July 29 still out of Copenhagen so not able to join with you, sorry. In the end we booked with SPB and not a Jewish heritage private tour bc it was too expensive and no one else was interested. SPB said they would add the Synagogue in St Petersburg to our regular itinerary which is great. They are wonderful to deal with. Good luck and enjoy!

SPB said they would add the Synagogue in St Petersburg to our regular itinerary which is great. They are wonderful to deal with. Good luck and enjoy! That is another advantage of private tours; you can tailor it to your specifications. On our Alla tour in 2007, one couple really wanted the synagogue added. No one objected, so we had Alla add it to our tour. Once the tour started our guide asked if there was anything else anyone wanted that was not scheduled. I mentioned I had heard the subway stops were very interesting. She took us to a few subway stops. BTW, she later confided that she was going to open her own agency for the next cruise season having completed all the necessary paperwork. Her name was Viktoria, and her new agency was SPB tours.
