Nice ride to St. Petersburg
We needed to get to St Petersburg from Moscow and didn't want to have to deal with long lines at the airport. It was easy to locate the station, board, and travel to St Petersburg . The staff were wonderful and I would definitely recommend using this mode of transportation and Russian rail lines

Great comfortable journey
I booked tickets online for trains between Moscow and St. Petersburg for my husband and I on the Nevsky Express. I booked second class tickets. The train was on time both ways. It was a comfortable ride. The compartments were very clean and comfortable. They served sandwiches and water for free. Great service!

Easy and comfortable transport between Moscow & St Petersburg
Me and my wife booked tickets online from Moscow to St Petersburg and back during June 2019. From Moscow we travelled 1st class with the NEVSKY EXPRESS to St Petersburg. It was a comfortable trip and all was good - considering that it was much cheaper than the SAPSAN. The compartment was comfortable and service staff were good ( although they could not speak English). Then from St Petersburg to Moscow, we travelled with the SAPSAN in Business Class and this was a very enjoyable trip. Service was excellent and the food was good. Finding and boarding the trains were very good in both cases and they were spot-on time.
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!
