I know you didn't do the 3 day tour in St Petersburg that goes to Moscow on the 3rd day, but my husband really wants to see Moscow, since this is the only time we will be in Russia. were your Helsinki and Berlin tours before that? I was wondering how that would work, if we would have to pay 3 times. One question - you said you didn't pay until the 2nd day of the St Petersburg tour. glad to hear you were happy with those tours too. We were also looking at using them for Berlin and Helsinki too. I was leaning towards TJ, and your review just confirmed it.
narrowed it down to between Alla and TJ Travel. we are booked on RC for June, 2019 and I am now researching which tour company to book. We had a small change, substituted bus ride for a longer time on river, this enabled them to include one more stop on tour. TJ is very, very responsive to any requests and will keep you fully informed of any changes in plans. Actually lowered my cost by about $150 for the 2 of us for all 3 tours. Used my credit card and was given a very favorable exchange rate when charging. One thing I liked about TJ was did not pay until the second day of the St Petersburg tour. From what I heard from other passengers who took different tours, Alla and SPB were excellent tours and guides were great. For Berlin our tour was combined with a SPB tour group. In Berlin our guide was American, from Brooklyn, went to Germany around 1990, and stayed. In Helsinki our guide was Finnish, by way of Spain (birth, England, education and Finnish by marriage. Had Russian guide, married to an Italian for St Petersburg. Excellent tours and guides in all 3 cities. Used TJ Travel in St Petersburg, Helsinki and Berlin. It gives me peace of mind to keep my reservation with them. I've also been reading more recent reviews on Trip Advisor.
They've been very responsive and reassuring in my emails to me. I thought about switching tour operators when I heard about the rumors which turned out to be fake news. Our sailing is in 30 days and I'm also booked with SPB Tours. These people could be in any given group. No apology given to the bus driver, but this was not the SPB’s fault. The wife then admitted she had his wallet.

The father also rudely accused the bus driver of stealing his wallet, while the daughter told us all to check our bags as he’d probably stolen ours, which none of us did as at this stage we’d all realised these people were obnoxious. Took selfies on the metro instead of keeping to the right, thus blocking early morning commuters.
The only downside was we had a family of three that we constantly had to wait for. I thought the whole organization and the clockwork precision to get us to all the different venues and in on time was excellent. We visited everything on the itinerary and also had two sit down lunches. Everyone I spoke to with SPB tours were very impressed with how their tour went. Alla only had two groups going on our sailing, so many of them had to wait for their whole group to disembark. That suited me as I get priority when disembarking so it meant I was in the first group to leave. This meant we didn’t have to wait for one person from the ship who was late to embark. As SPB Tours had around 20 different group tours going out that day they sent us an email saying they would just fill the buses as we got off, and to also disembark with the people you wanted to travel with. Embarkation through immigration was very staggered as the ship decided we had to do it in groups after the ship’s tours were done. She spoke very clear English and gave us so much information.

They were very professional and we had an excellent tour guide with earphones for when we were off the bus. I booked the cruise only 5 days out, so I accepted the first offer. I chose them as they were the first to respond and guarantee me a place on their two day Deluxe tour. I have just returned from a Baltics Cruise and I booked with SPB tours.
