- If you think that Kungur is just another industrial centre beyond the Urals that was built for the purpose of factory production, you are wrong. The city has been known for its commercial importance as a merchant's trading post for a long time. Thanks to trade a lot of graceful mansions and grand temples have appeared here.
- You'll visit the place of crossing of 7 roads, will be able to see and touch the navel of the Earth!
- Hear why people in Kungur still remember and respect Mikhail Ivanovich Gribushin who was the town head and Maecenas.
- You'll know why the city is considered to be the capital of ballooning, take a walk along the square of the same name and listen to an incredible story about Russian Icarus - Nikitka the Flying Man.
- You'll drive by the Sylvensky bridge, and your guide will tell you an interesting story: locals wanted to build the bridge 4 times, and only at the fifth attempt they succeeded. Not just a construction, but with the unique construction which has no analogs in the Urals.
- One of the key moments of the excursion becomes visiting of the visiting card of the Western Urals - Kungurskaya ice cave. Its icy elegance constantly draws tourists both from Russia, and from abroad. The cave is unique and included in the world's top-10 gypsum caves by the length (more than 5600 m!). The ecosystem with its grottos, lakes, "organ pipes" has made the cave the most popular tourist attraction in Perm Region.
- You' ll hear the story of how the famous conqueror of Siberia Ermak came to these places: how it happened that the legendary conqueror crossed the river Sylva with his troops, although he had another river on the itinerary - Chusovaya. A silent witness to these events is a huge rock, later named after Ermak. A picturesque view opens up from it.
- You’ll see a surprisingly beautiful Ural landscape from a specially equipped observation deck on the cliff, which rises 60 meters above the mighty river Sylva.
- You’ll learn interesting facts about the Trans-Siberian railway, along which the route will take you.
- The price includes guided tours and transport services.
- Excursion to the ice cave is extra chargeable (from 700 roubles/adult, 500 roubles/children).
