Another great virtual travel adventure by travel expert Nino Mohan.

Start with Finland’s Capital Helsinki and travel through Europe’s largest lakes district, taking in the natural and cultural delights of Finnish Lakeland. Continue north to Lapland and experience the land of midnight sun with a chance to see the northern lights.

Next visit Ukraine, a large country in Eastern Europe known for its Orthodox churches, Black Sea coastline and forested mountains. After visiting the three main cities Kyiv (Kiev), Lviv and Odesa/Sevastopol,

we will continue to the largest country in the world Russia. First visit Sochi, Sochi, a Russian city on the Black Sea, which is known as a summer beach resort, and was host of the 2014 Winter Olympics. Take a trans-Siberian 8 day train journey from Vladivostok to Moscow making stops at the most important cities on the train route, then an unforgettable 7 day cruise on the Volga River from Moscow to Volgograd making many stops on the way to see the countryside. Our trip will end in St Petersburg, the sheer grandeur of Russia’s Imperial capital never fails to mesmerize even the most seasoned travelers.
