We have now had a chance to catch our breath for a couple of days and I wanted to drop you a note letting you know how pleased we were with our recent trip to the Baltics and St. Petersburg. All of the arrangements you made were great. The hotels were very nice and wonderfully located in proximity to the best of sights! Each of the guides you arranged for us was charming, informative and had a thorough command of English. We enjoyed each of them and from talking with them got a bit of a feel about what life in the country was like as seen from their perspective. We probably spent the most time with Maria Schegoleva in St. Petersburg. She was simply delightful and had a marvelous command of idiomatic English. Each and every one of your ground transportation folks was always there when scheduled and were pleasant and informative. Even the midnight train to St. Petersburg was a great experience. We thank you for all of your personal attention and certainly would recommend you and your operation to anybody here in the US wanting to see the Baltics. Thanks for everything.
