Your safety


Russia isn't the most dangerous country for tourists at all, but your trip will become way more pleasant if you are armed with the right information. We would like to present you instructions on how to stay safe in Saint-Petrersburg.

1. Be attantive on the streets. Russian drivers more likely will not wait for a pedestrian to cross the street, sometimes they drive even when the traffic lights turn green. Accidents involving pedestrians often take place in Russia.

2. Be vigilant, especially on train stations, airports and streets of the city center: pickpockets like to target foreigners and steal from them.

3. Beware of Gipsies. In Russia it's quite a dangerous ehnic group, trading in swindle all around the country. Don't agree to get your fortune told and be attentive if Gipsies are beside you - you can get robbed.

4. Exchange currency only in banks. Don't go to some exchange centres, especially if they are next to a train station - there you can be given faulse money.

5. Try not to go to the city's outskirts in the evening - it can be dangerous there.

6. Don't buy things of a suspicious quality on the street.

7. In hotels keep your valuable things in safes.

8. In Russia it is considered to be normal to hitch a ride. Of course, the safest way is to call a taxi, but, sometimes, it might be cheaper and quicker to take a private car on the spot.  If You do hitch, we do not recommend You to sit into the cars that looks old and decrepit. They are often in a bad technical condition.

9. Always keep your passport with visa and registraion with you. It will help you to avoid problems with the law. Police often stops foreigners for document inspections, and if you cannot present your documents, you may have to pay fines or even bribes to stay out of trouble.

If You did happen to lose Your passport, You may face significant difficulties with hotels, banks and the police.            

  • You need to report Your passport stolen or lost to the Russian police. You will be given a document , which you will carry with You until You replace the passport and visa.
  • Report the loss to nearest  Consulate General of Your country. Below You will find the necessary addresses and telephone numbers.
