To this day, it is considered one of the largest centers of culture, science and industry and its over 300 years of history make it a highly rewarding tour destination for travelers. From here, we visit all the tourist hotspots, like The Kremlin, Red Square and St Isaac's Cathedral, as well as heading away from the crowds to experience a side of Russia seldom seen by travelers. For 12 days, we enjoy the sights, sounds and experiences of the largest country by landmass in the world and end the Russia leg of the tour in the opulent capital, Moscow. Our next stop, Yerevan, is renowned for its art, architecture and fascinating religious history and we take time to explore as many facets of the destination that time allows; from the multitude of Christian buildings and relics, intriguing museums and secular sites, to the Hellenic edifices, picturesque parks and grand mosques. We follow part of the ancient trading route that linked China to Western Europe, the Silk Road, and take in some beautiful fortresses, churches and palaces before flying out of Baku.
