Don't know how to entertain yourself at the weekend? Go on an unforgettable adventure to a city that has long been under Swedish and Finnish influence. It holds many legends, mysteries, contradictions and stories of that time. It captivates from the first seconds with its unique atmosphere and architectural diversity.
Walking around these narrow streets, visiting cafes and museums of Vyborg, you forget that this is the XXI century. It seems that this place, every corner of which is steeped in history, is a portal to the Middle Ages.
The itinerary is developed with the support of Volkswagen Caddy.

Saint Petersburg - Vyborg
Today you will travel to the city with centuries-old history - Vyborg.
The city, founded in 1293, has a lot to show and surprise. The adventure begins at the entrance to the Vyborg district in the village of Ilyichevo, where the museum-reserve "Jalkala" is located.
A little further away there is an amazing historical and ethnographic museum, designed as the fortress of the Baltic Slavs of the early Middle Ages.
At the end of the day you can take a walk along the waterfront, where you can see the drakkars from the film "And Trees Grow on the Stones".
