After finished to accompany the guide at 6pm, we went around St. Petersburg alone. After 6pm but they were the longest days in this year in St. Petersburg, we could have enough time to tour there. They said we had daylight even till 11pm.
River cruise from 7:00 we booked with an English speaker. There are many Russian guide-cruise but English-guide-cruise ship is not much, we had to go to the pier we told.
Moscow river is a river, its cruise similar as Amsterdam one, going within canals and then to the sea. I like this cruise because the ship goes within canals, we can touch to the building along canals.
I had an image for night cruise with night illuminations to bridge and city view, it is like a scene of program of NHK(Japan National Broad Casting). but the English guide cruise 7:00 was final one. So it was totally different from the scene. It was in a daylight without night light-up. However it was actually night cruise( 7pm to 9 pm).We had never taken any photograph as a romantic cruise in a night with light-up.
