Warnings Or Dangers: Mosquitoes
  • Tip Rating: [Not enough ratings yet]
  • More of an annoyance than a danger, but there's no escaping mosquitoes during the summer period. This is no surprise when you consider that St Petersburg was built on a swamp, but it does mean that insect repellant is something you would be wise to invest in.

    Police: Dodgy Cops
  • Tip Rating: [Not enough ratings yet]
  • If you are going to have a night out, try getting a taxi home. The main danger from walking home is the local cops who will stop you and help themselves to the contents of your wallet.
    Luckily I didn't have any money for them to steal as I had had a big night.
