George, concerning our meeting.
I'll explain for you main information concerning trips to
Finland from St-Petersburg.
First of all - all tourist trips from St-Petersburg have
the departure on Thursday with arrival to Helsinki on Friday morning.
After that, duration of staying will depend on concrete tourist
trip and duration of trip, but all trips have arrival to Helsinki
on Friday morning, every week.
Therefore, if you'll come to Wednesday, you should wait till Friday
morning for my arrival. Or you should find flight with arrival on Friday too.
Agency should arrange full tourist package of trip for me.
They should book - ticket, medical insurance and room in hotel,
after that they will show these documents in Finnish embassy, and
after that Finnish embassy will give my visa. Embassy will reject
my visa if agency haven't even one of these papers. Because of visa
rules of Schengen countries for Russian citizens.
Therefore - we have two variants - or I'll need 300-320$ to book my trip,
and you'll book your ticket and room in the same hotel, or I can book
my trip but with double room and you'll need your ticket only. I'll need
your full official name to do it. And I think I'll need about 200$ more, to do it.
Because I'll do by train, and I do not think the train ticket have
price more than 100-120$.
George, all tourist agency in Russia not accept credit cards. I
perfectly know it, because I was finding out this information already.
I took bank account for payment from abroad.

Full account of travel agency in my town is -
SWIFT code of bank - SABRRU2P
Name of bank - Saving Bank of the Russian(Severo-Zapadny Office) St-Petersburg
Number of account - 42307978255385000011
Name of account - Travel agency Olga Bordovskaya
