Where to go for the new year at sea. New Year's tours New Year at sea where is better

If you are going to celebrate the New Year in Russia, keep in mind that there are few good hotels here, so many people start booking New Year's holidays from March (!), most bookings occur in October, and in November there are no decent hotels left. However, something interesting can be “caught” in December, when there are refusals from armor. It turns out that it’s better not to take risks and plan the New Year holidays in advance - let our list of the best places to celebrate the New Year help you with this:

1. Fairy New Year in Sochi + Krasnaya Polyana

Sochi is a great choice for celebrating the New Year. The weather is warm, the streets are beautifully decorated, there is a festive atmosphere all around. And, most importantly, there is something to see in Sochi and where to go: in the Ice Palace in the Olympic Village you can go skating, then go to the Amusement Park, visit the famous Arboretum, sail on a yacht or go skiing to Krasnaya Polyana. At the hotel, ask for excursions, for example, to Abkhazia to Lake Ritsa, Gagra, Pitsunda, or order an extraordinary one from local residents - this is much more interesting, but you also need to order in advance. However, many people travel around the area on their own, taking it in - cheaply and you can choose not only the class of car, even a certain brand and year of manufacture.

Where to stay in Sochi? Choose a resort with full board (breakfast, lunch, dinner included) and with all amenities. Do not take the “soviet” one at all, so as not to overshadow the rest with a dull look of shabby walls and a lack of service. According to the reviews of vacationers, the Avangard sanatorium is the best in Sochi - inexpensive, cozy, with excellent service and a heated pool.


Sanatorium Avangard in Sochi is one of the best. #sochi

Irina: “We lived for the New Year holidays in the Primorsky building. Just wow. Wave noise in your room. Sea air. Silence, calmness. Lack of fuss. The best location in the city, how many traveled and walked - I have not seen the best for relaxation and proximity to the sea.”

For those who love outdoor activities, we recommend Krasnaya Polyana. The easiest way to get to Krasnaya Polyana is by train from Sochi and Adler, from the railway. station. Even if you don’t like skiing, you can have fun riding “cheesecakes”. And be sure to climb the mountains - the views are magnificent!
Ski resorts in Krasnaya Polyana: resort "Gorki Gorod", "Gazprom", "Rosa Khutor".


Krasnaya Polyana for New Year in Russia

Do you want to get into the New Year's fairy tale? Then choose the fabulous hotel Golden Tulip Rosa Khutor - located in the mountain resort of Rosa Khutor, just a 3-minute walk from the ski lift. Even if the weather is “non-flying”, there is something to do here: go to the fitness center, relax in the sauna with a pool or take a massage.

Spend New Year's Eve in Krasnaya Polyana can be quite inexpensive, if you know the places :) For example, take a look at the Inn Viktoriya hotel with cozy wooden houses where you don’t want to leave - see prices.

3. New Year in St. Petersburg

The main thing is to plan the New Year holidays in St. Petersburg correctly. Keep in mind that the best time for the Hermitage and museum trips is December 28, 29 and 30, while everyone is buying gifts. From January 1, it makes no sense to waste time on exhausting queues at museums where you can stand for several hours, instead it is better to walk along the beautiful streets. On New Year's holidays, concerts and shows are held on the streets, so you can walk indefinitely. Do you want more impressions? Arrange yourself

To fully experience the spirit of St. Petersburg, you can stay in an inexpensive hotel for a few days, and at least for one night in a luxurious one. After all, as the first week of the New Year passes, so the whole year will pass - let at least a little luxury appear in your life in the coming year.

4. With children in Veliky Ustyug for the New Year

5. New Year in Altai

Perhaps, only in Altai you can still spend the New Year in Russia inexpensively, but at the same time bright and extraordinary. And both as a family and as a couple. What to do? Go skiing and “cheesecakes”, arrange snowmobile races, admire the beautiful views, and warm up in the sauna in the evenings, then spend a pleasant time by the fireplace, relaxing from the bustle of the city.


By the way, many modern camp sites have now been built in Altai - see - so the rest will be not only active, but also comfortable. So far, not all Russian tourists know about Altai, so prices, even on New Year's Eve, are low, and the quality of rest is quite at the level - have time to enjoy an inexpensive high-quality vacation :)
There are picturesque respectable eco-hotels in Altai, located far from the noise, where there are no crowds of tourists, and the prices are incredibly low - 3-4 times less than in Sochi.
For example, in such a secluded European-level eco-hotel at an Altai price:


Of course, you will not find tours and vouchers to the best places in Altai. Such pearls are not for “package” tourists; Book and go on your own. To get to Gorny Altai from Moscow or other Russian cities, there are several options:
– fly to Gorno-Altaisk (the closest, there are direct flights, see “search for air tickets” in the column on the left). Then take a taxi, but it is better to arrange with the hotel to meet you;
- fly to Novosibirsk, then take a bus to Biysk, and then take a minibus, bus or taxi.
