We can't thank you enough for all you did to make our trip so special. We did a number of things that were off the beaten track, and did them well, thanks to your expert quidance. I was especially impressed with the translation services you provided at Smolny.
The day you planned for us with David and Susan was truly fantastic. The boat trip was incredibly beautiful - even better than we had expected. Thank you for taking good care of our friends the next day as well.
