Travel Russia Holiday Specials |
If you are planning to travel Russia
in the near future, you need to start preparing for your trip right
away. The first step you will need to take is getting appropriate entry
visa, as you will be refused passage into Russia without one. There are
several visa types available such as business, tourist, transit, and
private visas with each varying in duration and number of allowed
entries. While for many first-time travelers getting a visa may seem a
daunting task, in fact there is nothing difficult in the whole process
of visa processing and the thing is just not to spend a penny
on
so-called "visa services companies."
Get locations of the Russian Embassies and Consulates in your area.
There is only ONE location to send your visa application papers. Choose
the right one, or your holiday travel trip will finish without having
started.
Traveling in a rouble country where people still use US dollars for
everyday transactions is already a challenge enough to baffle most
first-time visitors. What's tipping like? Where can I change American
Express travelers' checks? Do they accept plastic? Get ready for the
money issues you will face in Russia before you leave from home.
Fortunately, Russia hotels don't differ too much and you can be
explained all the things you are interested in directly there. To a
word, there are great problems with real estate renting and especially
timeshare renting, so it's more reasonable to use a hotel reservation
service.
Russian customs regulations is where they catch you! Suffice it to say
that the customs rules change frequently, there is a certain limit of
money you are allowed to take out of the country free of charge (!),
and if you exceed this limit Russian customs officers have the right to
take your money from you - and they DO. Get ready for all the
challenges of the customs check and find out how not to lose your money
on the way home. If you are planning a big family holiday or a world
travel - it's better to leave Russia for the finish, when you'll have
not too much money.
