We are pleased to offer you a 5 day trip to the gems of the most ancient towns of Russia on Golden Ring. Amid plains, lakes and marshes of vast country are scattered these old Russian towns. Known collectively as the Golden Ring of Russia, they actually form a circle which extends from Moscow towards the north-east. While the architectural monuments of these towns are the stone chronicles of the country's history,it is also an area which has preserved many old artistic traditions. Life here is completely different from the big cities and for an opportunity to see true Russia, this is a tour worth taking.

During the tour you will have an opportunity to see the towns originated in the 11th-12th centuries, visit the most beautiful monasteries (among them - Trinity-Sergius Lavra - centre of pilgrimage for all Russian Orthodox beleivers) and enjoy the beauty of nature.

Fixed departure group tour is planned for the dates August 14 - 19, 2009.
