Restaurants and cafés
After or while walking around the palaces and parks of Tsarskoe Selo you can relax and refresh yourself in several conveniently located cafés and restaurants. The Circumference of the Catherine Palace has the Banqueting Hall available to rent for events.
Hotel Ekaterina
Hotel Ekaterina is located in the southern part of the semicircular wings of the Catherine Palace. Visitors to Tsarskoe Selo will find here an ideal combination of old traditions and modern comfort, and have the opportunity to plunge themselves into the atmosphere of past centuries, to experience history first-hand and relax from the noise and bustle of urban life.
Carriage and Sleigh Rides
Carriage rides, or in winter Russian sleigh rides, are on offer in the Catherine and Alexander Parks, with and without advance booking.
The Ferry Service
The re-establishment of the historical ferry service that connected the Hall on the Island with the Catherine Park became one more landmark in the revival of the Tsarskoye Selo palace-and-park complex.
Electric Car Tours
We offer audio-guided Electric Car Tours of the Catherine Park and the Alexander Park on the ecological battery-driven vehicles (currently in Russian only, audio tours in other languages are expected later).
Gondola Rides
A boat trip on the Great Pond in the Catherine Park was always a favourite pastime with the residents of Tsarskoye Selo.
