Why this tour

Both capitals in one calm 10-day route — Sapsan transfer built in, no separate booking.
Halal menus and prayer rhythm agreed in writing before you fly — Sadko, Galata, Kazan Mangal and the Moscow Cathedral Mosque network.
Premium-mid budget: stays below competing 10-day 'Two Capitals' products at $7,500+ per person, with the same halal guarantees.
Pre-agreed day B for Sapsan delays, weather at Peterhof, and Lake Ladoga crossings — no on-the-day surprises.
