SOME PEOPLE THINK THAT WINTER TOURS ARE NOT SO INTERESTING. BUT THOSE WHO VISITED STALINGRAD IN

WINTER NEVER REGRET IT

   WHY?  
Because the most important and dramatic events of 1942/43 started here together with colds and Russian counterattack

Some reasons for winter tours

  HISTORICAL

                                                                             The winter events chronologically coincide with :

     -last crazy and desperate attempts to capture Stalingrad
    - complete German failure in urban warfare tactics
    - preparations and beginning of the Russian counterattack
    - building up of the Russian bridgeheads,
    -dramatic mistakes made in Stavka,
    -Goring’s and Manstein’s failures to rescue the surrounded German troops
    -Hitler’s betrayal of his own soldiers
    - last days of the surrounded in the pocket
    -beginning of the the Third Reich downfall
    -price the World had paid to free the World from fascism

  EMOTIONAL 

               With a bit of imagination and Russian winter around we shall help you re-enact and follow the drama of  Stalingrad back in 1942-43.

    PRACTICAL 

      Winter tours have obvious benefits for those who

    -  is not limited to travel by vacations or holidays

    -  hates crowded hotels, restaurants or airports

    -  prefers following historic events in similar conditions

  PERMANENT 

  We tend to give an objective picture of the battle and consider political intrigues as a method to conceal incompetence of running human resources
  efficiently. Nationalism has never been favored on the tours.
