Why this tour
Pace built for Gulf families with children 4–14 — zoo, LabyrinthUm, boat rides; no 12-hour palace marathons.

Day-by-day itinerary
Meet at Pulkovo Airport or Moscow Railway Station to suit your schedule, with no waiting for other groups or shared coaches. A private transfer with child seats brings you to Hotel Kempinski Moika 22 on the Moika Embankment. Your family room includes a separate children's area, while the children's welcome set includes a child-sized robe, small toys and cartoons on request; a prayer mat is provided. Rest after the flight, then join a welcome dinner at the hotel's halal restaurant, with a children's menu and a short activity for little ones. Your family guide will outline the White Nights schedule, weather forecast and rain alternatives: the aquarium or planetarium in place of an evening walk. The experience is solely for your group of 2–8 guests.
