DESCRIPTION 

A four-hour city tour around Kazan is an excellent opportunity to see all the main sights of the Tatar capital in one excursion.

• Ulitsa Baumana - Kazan's main pedestrian zone

• Ss Peter and Paul's Church - one of the most beautiful churches in Tatarstan and perhaps even Russia with unusual decorations and mouldings.
