obtaining visa to st petersburg
 
Hi,

Going to St petersburg in the beginning of May this year. Need a visa badly. What is the safest and quickest way of obtaining it? Have a hotel reservation. Do I need to get them send me support papers for the visa?

First of all, where are you from? If you are American I recommend the following:

I rarely use a travel agent for any reason but in this case I did have one help me with this visa. She recommended Visas International to get my Russian Visa. I've heard it's cheaper to go directly to the Russian Embassy's web site, but it might be safer and quicker to use a visa service.

You keep posting and asking the same question over and over. Listen to the advice you've been given - visit the embassy, or call - and do it.
