When and why
Dear Friends!
Our main mission is the best pictures in your albums. We show you absolutely exact coordinates for iconic photos and fantastic selfies. We help travelers to see what they want and not to waste in vain your time and money. Often our tips and life-hacks are unique, because no one knows about this except us. Well, now you too ☺
To get good photos, come here .. anytime. Maybe even a few times. For example, day and evening. However, for high-quality images (panoramic or by night), it is better to use a tripod and good lens.
We especially recommend the so-called "White Nights Time" - approximately from the end of May to the middle of July. The best time for romantic walks and photos during this period is early morning, about 4 - 4:30AM. In the pre-dawn, the city looks particularly magical.

Dear guests! Please, be careful! Russia and St Petersburg are much safer than many countries in Europe, but near St Isaac's Cathedral is a high probability of attack by pickpockets and scammers.
Take care of your bags, wallets, expensive cameras, lens and gadgets. Do not accept random offers to buy something and exchange currency. If you are in danger or in the event of an incident, call the police

Admission. Tickets. Tours
Dear Visitors!
Open this map (manual for use) and see which other iconic photos you can get very close to this place! Walk along the embankments of small rivers and canals, have a cup of coffee in one of the local cafe!
Choose what you like and plan your own route!
We present an unusual concept for travel and our main advice for tourists - do not try to be everywhere at the same time. So, various museums and exhibitions maybe are very good, but for us this is not the main thing.
But, although usually our regular recommendation is to not run from one museum to another and just make a small tour around district, however, in this case we advise you to go inside. It will not take much time even in high season, but you must see it.

All Landmarks
The best pictures in your albums are our main mission!
Do not spend time searching for a place to take iconic photos. We show you only top spots and specify absolutely exact coordinates! This is all the more useful for you, because this does not always match with the exact location of the sights itself!
Hint for the photographer. The building of the Cathedral is very large and in order to get a good image, you need to move away from the object for some distance. You will get the best shots from the side of St. Isaac's Square and the monument to Tsar Nicholas I
Take a look at a few photos you can get and the exact coordinates for shooting
In addition to 'iconic photo', our recommendations is to photograph the Cathedral at an angle, from side of the Astoria Hotel and Central Exhibition Hall (Manege). Also, do not miss the great views of St. Isaac's Square, the Admiralty and the Neva River from the colonnade of the cathedral! Admission there is very inexpensive!
We do not recommend photographing the Cathedral from the opposite side (Side of Alexander Garden and Admiralty) - you will be prevented by trees in the park.

Private transfer | or by Taxi
KiwiTaxi transfer is a transportation service that is somewhat more expensive than a taxi. The advantages of a private transfer are - no problems with language, price is known in advance, driver will be waiting for you in the right place at the right time, holding a sign with your name.
This is an honest guide. Therefore, we do not recommend this service if your place of accommodation (or just pick-up point) is in the city center. In this case, it is much more better to order a regular taxi. But but if the distance is large, for example, departure point is airport or one of the suburbs, then a private transfer is really a convenient and profitable option.
You can order a transfer with any service level - e.g. transfer for the family with children, economy minivan for a tourist group or a luxury transfer. The transfer cost is fixed at the time of pre-order and never rises - either when the driver is waiting for the passenger, when the stop is necessary, or because of traffic jams. By the way, the KiwiTaxi service is available in almost any country in the world from the United States to Australia. Remember about it on your next trip!
Have questions? FAQ
Though St Isaac`s Cathedral located directly in the center of city, but exact address formally is located in the Admiralty Administrative District of St Petersburg. Because, by default, Admiralteysky District of Saint Petersburg (transliteration of address in Russian) is listed as the point of destination.
Replace the data in the form, if necessary. Specify address of your location / your hotel name. If the booking system cannot find your exact address, then first specify in the form the name of the District of St Petersburg as the point of departure or arrival (how to find out the name of the district) and next enter the exact address of departure / arrival in the next step of booking.

How to make an order correctly
NEVER DO IT!
Never use illegal taxis! It can be too expensive and even unsafe!

If you take a taxi just on the street - it should be a branded car only!
