School holidays in Saint Petersburg 2026

Holidays are the best time to see St. Petersburg as it is impossible to imagine it on the pages of textbooks. Here, every street becomes a lesson, every building becomes a visual aid, and a walk along the embankment turns into a fascinating journey into the past and the future at the same time.

When will the holidays be in 2025-2026?
Autumn – from October 25 to November 2
Winter – from December 31 to January 11
Spring – from March 28 to April 5
Summer – from May 27 to August 31

This means that there are several reasons ahead to spend the school holidays in St. Petersburg.

Why Petersburg?
Because this is a city where you can feel that studying is not just about notebooks and desks. Palaces and fortresses will tell the story here, and the houses of Pushkin and Dostoevsky will tell literature. Chemistry and biology can be studied in the Mendeleev and Vavilov museums, and geography can be explored by walking through parks, canals and bridges.

What do we offer for schoolchildren?

Intellectual tours. This is a real school excursion program. They turn St. Petersburg into a living encyclopedia. Sightseeing tours-games, rooftop walks, "Legends of Nevsky Prospekt" or "Following in the Footsteps of Dostoevsky's Heroes" routes, team quests at the Hermitage, trips to Peterhof and Tsarskoye Selo – each tour can be customized to suit the interests of children.

Natural science programs. For specialized classes, we have prepared routes through museums and research institutes, where Russian science was born. "Mendeleev in St. Petersburg", "The Medical Hermitage", "Bound by the Hippocratic Oath" are an opportunity to see how great scientists changed the world and touch authentic artifacts.

Children's quest at the hotel. We also took care of the youngest guests. There is a special quest for children from 5 to 11 years old in our hotel. Upon check–in, a soft teddy bear and a mysterious note are waiting for them in the room - the beginning of a fascinating story. Hints, hiding places and tasks make a regular stay at a hotel a real adventure.

Why should you book a vacation trip now?
Because the best dates are quickly taken by groups from all over the country. Because St. Petersburg is especially beautiful in autumn and spring – there are fewer tourists in the city, and museums and theaters are becoming intimate and cozy. And because we can arrange everything on a turnkey basis: accommodation, excursions, meals and escorts.

School holidays in St. Petersburg are not just a vacation. This is an adventure with benefits that will give children knowledge, emotions and memories for a lifetime.

Book your trip today and treat yourself and your children to St. Petersburg, a city that knows how to teach beautifully.
