General Director/owner – Natalie Kalachinskaya:
I think there is nothing in the world like travelling!
Probably, that is why my hobby has become my profession at one time.
18 years ago I opened my own tourist bureau. And as far as it is surprising, it is still alive and successful!
Now my company’s turnover is 20 000 tourists per year. And up till now I am thrilled to meet every new visitor – would he like the tour program? How does he like the hotel accommodation my managers chose for him? Has he accomplished all his points during this business trip?
The most exiting in my job are the moments when after some time I receive congratulations and the words of gratitude and acknowledgment from my customers in different countries of the world. When my guest or partner come up again with the request “I arrive next month, please arrange my visa and hotel…” For me it means that previous time we’ve met your expectations. Thank you that you appreciate the work we do and you trust my company over again.
Vladivostok, where I live, is a wonderful city. The edge of Russia, from where the morning starts for the whole country. Thanks God, now the region is safe for visitors. Especially I like Vladivostok in autumn, when taiga is picturesque in red and yellow, still warm sea invites to the beach, remote islands and fishing. This time of the year usually celebrate many festivals – rock, film, folklore, and the sea is colored with regatta sails and the hotels are full of guests.
We operate individual and group tours in Russia – from cold Kamchatka to beautiful Saint-Petersburg and Moscow, as well as to the other countries of the former USSR. If you do not see a package that interests you, please email us – we can easily customize the trip for you! Have you decided already where you spend your vacation?
Have a blessed day, Greetings from Russia!

Nakhodka Tour

Nakhodka is the gates between Primorsky region and Russia at large with the Pacific Ocean. The city is located on the mountains stretching out for 30 km along the seaside. Prior 1926 two settlements situated near America Bay accounted only 300 people. The decision on the construction of the ocean port on made in 1943 stimulated the growth of local population. In 1950 Nakhodka with its constant growing population became a major city.
Now it is a major ocean port, a center of industry and transport activity in the Russian Far East. Every month numerous freightliners (members of the Far Eastern Shipping Company) leave for the United States, Japan, Korea, China, Hong Kong, and India carrying important commercial cargo. Over 15 countries of the Asia-Pacific Rim have their representative offices in Nakhodka.
The city vicinity is the Free Economic Zone (FEZ) that attracts international business and finances to the area and stimulates growing business relationships with the Asia-Pacific Rim countries. The ocean port of Nakhodka terminal consists of the number of fuel tanks, fishing, and trade port facilities. Port Vostochny (very close to Nakhodka) has coal-mooring lines and container terminal with cranes that unload containers directly on railway platforms. Thus a container stock is formed in just a few hours. Even the monuments in the city portray its economic growth as international seaport.
In 1978 the delegation from Maidzuru, its sister-city in Japan, presented Nakhodka with the “Friendship Stone”. The legend says the mayor of Maidzuru cut this stone from a rocky mountain. Inscriptions on the stone are made in both Japanese and Russian languages. This memorial stone symbolizes long-lasting friendship between two cities. There are two memorial walls with the emblems of sister-cities and the legends in English, Russian, and Japanese in Nakhodka. One symbolizes its friendship with two Japanese cities Maidzuru and Otaru, another built in 1973.
