Russia offers something quite unique to the tourist. There is much more to Russia then the famous ancient cities of Moscow, St Petersburg and Murmansk. The country has extensive wildlife, the largest freshwater lake in the world, towering volcanoes and towering mountains.
Another country which is increasing in popularity is Romania. The medieval towns, majestic castles and Black Sea resorts keep tourists entertained throughout their stay.
