St Petersburg driver
 
We just returned from a trip to the Baltic...

You can read my trip report if you click on my name....

I want to mention the driver we had in St Petersburg because he is simply outstanding...

His name is Alex Lyubimov and he owns Alex Tour... He has 7 vehicles, all new and clean and employs others to drive some of them....We were lucky enough to have him. While he claims not to be a guide, he certainly has lots of information and knows all the tricks for making your stay perfect....He is reasonable as well...

He will meet ships, if you need that, or meet you at the airport or in our case the train station. He can provide visa services for people coming off of the ships, if you wish to use a small group situation rather than the horrible large groups which we encountered everywhere.....He knows the shopping scene, the restaurants, the sites...

Our vehicle was a one year old full size Opel station wagon which was very comfortable for the two of us, but would have been great for 5 people as well... It had excellent A/C and was very very clean... He is a good careful driver....He does not rush around...

Contact Alex at 7-812-355-3571 or [email protected] or his cell 7-921-945-4126

You will be very pleased with what he can do for your trip...

BTW, unlike most people in st pete, he has a sense of humor and he smiles and is very friendly....

RHKKMK : I have engaged Alex's services for my up-coming trip to St. Petersberg commencing Oct. 17th and am looking forward to it.
He has been extremely prompt, pleasant and very helpful to deal with so far.

Thanks for the recommendation.

Hi, I emailed Alex for my upcoming May trip. It has been 2 weeks, any insight? Is he still in business? Any other suggestions for driver's? With the good recommendation I would certainly like to use him? Thx in advance
