Anna Levina
My name is Anna Levina. I’m a licensed tour guide to Saint Petersburg, Russia. The curious thing about this city is that it’s very young - a bit more than 300 years old. However, in those 300+ years the city managed to become one of the most magnificent cities of the world. So many things have happened here over the years. And I can’t wait to share some of them with you. My goal is to tell the world about the beauty of my city, its history, Russian culture and heritage. Regardless of your age, interests, origin and political views, St.Petersburg has everything to meet the needs of the most sophisticated travelers.
