If you've gotten used to the clamor of Eastern
Bazaars… If the colorful palette of
African nature no longer excites you... If the delectable European wines
have forever lost their taste… If you are looking for new discoveries, then
come and visit the Russian North.
Only
in the north will all of Russia's
charms reveal themselves to you to their fullest: the glimmer of white nights,
the scent of salty sea air, the timeless silhouettes
of legendary monasteries in the reflection of scarlet sunsets. You will be able
to find real Russia,
whose eternal magnificence will spur you to meditate over your own past and
future.
Your
plan to visit the motherland of the Russian soul - an apt forename of the
Russian North - should not wait. There would be no hassles associated with organizing
the trip, because a tourist company Pomor-Tur,
located in the city of Arkhangel'sk,
will take care of everything.
Officially,
the company has been in operation since April, 1994. Pomor-Tur
relies on its many-decade experience, and its unique style of presentation,
inherited from an earlier, Soviet Regional Tourist Organization. Work
experience of Pomor-Tur's specialists
ranges between 10 and 25 years of professional involvement in the tourist
industry. In 2000 and 2001, the company won an award for its high quality
service. The company's director Tatiana N. Bestu-zheva
is among the best experts in Russia;
she received nation-wide acclaim for her contribution to the tourist industry
of the Russian North.
The
main task of Pomor-Tur is to provide services to
visitors of the Russian North. The region is filled with thrilling discoveries.
Even the Russians themselves have much to see there. Witness the pearl necklace
of the White Sea, embodied
by the beauty of the Solovetsky Archipelago and the
granite colors of the Kiy
Island.
Relax in the ecologically-clean zones; become acquainted with Arkhangel'sk, an amazing city along the Severnaya
Dvina
River;
visit the museum of wooden architecture at Maliye Kareli; glance at the colossal structures of the Antonievo-Siyskiy Monastery; navigate up the northern
rivers to the birthplace of one of the greatest Russian scientists, Mikhail Lomonosov. All these
options are only a mere part of what one could experience during a Pomor-Tur visit.
Pomor-Tur always
pursues a quest for something new. Currently, the company works on
reconstructing old routes along the Pinega and Vaymuga rivers. So far, Pomor-Tur
has restored popular cruise programs. These include the journey to the Solovetskiy
Island
on a modern ship Klavdia Elanskaia,
as well as river trips up the Severnaya Dvina, done on a unique paddle-wheel boat N. V. Gogol. Two company jets constantly link the continent with
the Solovetskiy
Islands - even those, who have no time for a boat trip,
could visit the Solovetskiy Monastery with ease.
