Homeric Tours

Fifty years ago, Homeric Tours was born; a two-person family-run operation in a tiny second-floor walk-up on the west side of Manhattan. A lot has changed over the last 50 years but so much of what makes this company great has stayed the same. We are still a family business, and I now work alongside my two daughters who share my passion and love for travel. We have moved on from the second-floor walk-up and expanded to offices throughout the East Coast, as well as our incoming operation in Athens.
One thing that has not changed throughout the last 50 years is the experience and precision that has made Homeric Tours the company that it is today. Through the ever-changing travel industry, Homeric Tours has remained true to our founding principles of providing unmatched value and service.
We once offered Greece as our only destination, solidifying us as experts in the market. Over the past decades, we have grown, as have our vacation and destination offerings, to include other Mediterranean and European countries. We truly cater to all types of travelers by offering independent vacations, partially escorted and escorted tours. We can plan any experience, from honeymoons to group travel, island-hopping packages to classical motorcoach tours, and everything in between.
Homeric Tours not only provides you with a trusted and reliable source for purchasing your travel, the level of service you will receive from us only begins during the purchasing phase. Both before and throughout your trip, you will have the security of knowing you have a partner nearby to ensure your satisfaction.
Whether it is something as simple as notifying you of a schedule change on an international flight, re-routing an island-hop due to weather or recommending an optional excursion when greeted at your hotel upon arrival, our travel specialists and international infrastructure are in place to ensure a seamless experience for you and your travel companions. We pride ourselves on our customer service and attention to detail.
Regardless of your travel needs, you will find the utmost in experience, service and value when working with Homeric Tours. We invite you to explore our website, submit a trip request, or call one of our destination specialists to discuss your next trip. We look forward to hearing from you soon.

Frequently Asked Questions From Our Travelers
Is moscow or st petersburg more beautiful.
Moscow and St Petersburg are two completely different cities and difficult to compare. Both are beautiful in their own way. Moscow’s sprawling cityscape reflects centuries of history in a mixture of architectural styles - gilded cupolas of medieval Russian churches merge with Stalinist monoliths and towering glass skyscrapers, and cobble-stone alleys balance grand boulevards. St Petersburg’s centre was laid out over a matter of decades, its regular and harmonious city plan lined with Neoclassicist, Art Nouveau and Baroque masterpieces, intersected with meandering canals. If you can’t choose between the two, check out our best combined Moscow and St Petersburg tours.
What is the best time to visit Moscow and St Petersburg?
A trip to St Petersburg or Moscow at any time of year will be enjoyable. Museums and galleries are much less busy during winter, accommodation is significantly cheaper, and you can enjoy outside activities such as skiing or sleigh rides. Exploring the cities is more enjoyable in the warmer months, and St Petersburg especially beckons during the White Nights. Whenever you decide to travel, check out which national holidays are on – Pancake Week, Victory Day, and City Day are just some of the festivities you can experience. For more information about the best time of year to travel, read our guide.

After an unforgettable guided program in the center, you can relax at your hotel's spa center or make your way to an inspiring ballet at the charming authentic Mariinksy Theater. That's a sneak peek for one day in Russia. Let's have a whole tour together.

We enjoyed the whole trip a lot
Overall we enjoyed the whole trip a lot. Moscow is beautiful and clean. Thank you very much for your patience and excellent organization of this tour. Everything ran very smoothly and according to schedule. The guides met us on time at hotels or at our train carriage on arrival. They all spoke good English, had a good local knowledge and were very kind and helpful.
The tour lived up to all expectations
I’m most pleased with Travel All Russia in arranging our ‘Volga Dream’ Russia tour, I would recommend using your services again as every aspect of our tour went off without a hitch. The communication between our tour representative was excellent as we required additional days on both ends of our tour. The visa process and the logistics were flawlessly implemented.
Best and worry-free travel to Russia! - Treasures of Two Capitals Tour
When my husband and I decided we wanted to travel Russia, I did my research and came across Travel All Russia which had very good reviews. It certainly did not disappoint. We chose the Treasures of Two Capitals tour. Booking and coordinating with them were seamless from start to finish. Questions were promptly answered, either through email or a phone call and changes if any, were quickly updated.
We are so happy to have gone on this trip! - June 2017
Thank you for all you did to make our trip spectacular! Both ballets were excellent and totally enjoyed by my son and I.
There is so much to see and do and I feel we did, with our wonderful guides a great job beginning to see all.
The St. Regis Hotel was so warm and friendly! Food was excellent and so convenient to the Kremlin, Bolshoi Theater, St. Basil's, etc. Thank you!
The Petro Palace was okay. Food was not the greatest but the staff were friendly. Location was great, however.
Everything went really smoothly - Private St. Petersburg Shore Excursion
A big thank you for our tour. We were looked after very well by our guide and the driver. They were both outstanding. The itinerary was the best. Everything went really smoothly
It was a great experience - Treasures of Two Capitals (5 star), June 2017
It was a great experience. The guides were knowledgeable and spot on time. Especially the guide in St. Petersburg seemed to get us to places with great timing. We beat the majority of crowds. Maybe that’s partly a result of being a small group, being that we didn’t have to wait for stragglers. The weather cooperated and we didn’t get caught in any rain storms.
Everybody in our group got along perfectly. We were all experienced travelers and shared information on places we’d been to. The ladies are now sharing pictures of our trip to Russia via email.
