A one-day trip along Zamland Peninsula offers tourists a chance to visit Yantarny, the site of the world’s only amber mine, and Baltiysk, the westernmost point of Russia and home of Russia’s Baltic Fleet. A few hours in Svetlogorsk (Rauschen) walking through the picturesque and popular seaside resort are included as part of the trip.

Baltijsk (PILLAU):
We offer a half-day tour to this town which is home to the Baltic Fleet and closed to visitors without special permission. Several old structures which survived from German times give this small town its charm. The Citadel was built by the Swedish king, Gustav Adolf von Schweden during the brief Swedish domination of the area. The former court building which today houses the Baltic Fleet Museum is included into the tour. Also it is worth visiting the old High School and the 32-meter high light house, built in 19th century, which is the symbol of the town.
