New Year's Eve is an event that needs to be prepared in advance. Especially if you want to spend it in the most unusual place in Russia, in which at the end of December a huge number of tourists and vacationers rush - Veliky Ustyug. It is here that the main residence of Santa Claus is located, where it is interesting to visit not only children, but also adults who have not lost their taste for the holiday. Many are already planning to celebrate New Year 2020 here.
This haste is understandable: the demand for tours and accommodation in late December-early January rises by tens and hundreds of times. Those who have run out of seats on the eve of 2019 are already worried about booking seats for the New Year 2020.
Tours
Those who are not used to organizing leisure activities on their own will benefit from the many New Year tours offered by tour operators and travel companies. A must for any such tour is a visit to the residence of Santa Claus, a variety of competitions, pleasure walks, sledding or sledding, etc. All this instills in the heart joy and foreboding of real New Year miracles.
You can choose tours aimed at various groups: children's groups, families with children, youth companies, people of different ages, etc. Fundamentally, they differ in how high the level of comfort offered. There are proposals in which guests are met directly at the platform or bus station, organizing a transfer to their place of residence.
Any tour involves a festive night filled with a colorful program, special treats and original entertainment. The most popular types of leisure activities in Veliky Ustyug are master classes in the manufacture of colorful Christmas tree decorations, dog sledding and sleigh rides with characters from New Year's tales.
On average, the duration of the tours does not exceed 3-4 days. The cost depends on which hotel you have to live in, how rich the program will be, and what kind of holiday evening and night are provided. Now the exact prices for 2020 have not yet been formed, but judging by the trends of recent years, they will change slightly over the year. Therefore, we can assume that tentatively tours will cost from 10 to 40 thousand rubles. For small children, prices can be 10, 20 or 30% less, and for children under 3 years free accommodation is sometimes possible. The full price for adults includes accommodation, breakfast, two or three meals a day, sightseeing and transport services.
Upon request, you can order an individual program for the New Year 2020 for any number of days with the desired level of comfort. In this case, the price is calculated individually.
