Night train from Moscow
We booked the night train from Moscow to St.Petersburg. Since the train was already fully booked we got immediately a good alternative offered. We got perfect and timely response with all relevant documentation (e.g. e-ticket). Journey was very well organized and a great pleasure. Many thanks - service by RussianRail.com is very much appreciated!
Once you have your tickets, look forward to a wonderful, smooth
and enjoyable journey through the Russian countryside.
Buy your ticket safely and securely and then sit back
and enjoy the ride!
