Excursion tips
Ask the organizers when and where the tour will end. Ask where a restaurant or cafe is nearby, whether there is public transport at this time and how you can get to the hotel. Sometimes it is more profitable to pay extra for the transfer.
Peter is a damp city. It gets chilly at night, especially by the river. Dress warmly.
Photography at night is a special art. Don't rely on a smartphone! Get a better camera to capture the dramatic lighting of buildings and open bridges.
