Nice warm group, making everyone feel special and at times push us to achieve more. Brought dream experiences like bali swing and the dreaded ATV experience to life. Still can't believe I was able to complete these just because of the pleasant company of entire group. Very comfortable trip and local guide is cherry on the cake.

I recently had the pleasure of traveling with Divas Sojourn on their Rajasthan tour, and I must say it was an incredible experience! The itinerary was thoughtfully curated, covering all the must-visit locations while giving us ample time to immerse ourselves in the vibrant culture and history of Rajasthan. A special mention goes to our tour leader, Sanjeev Jaitly, whose professionalism, knowledge, and warm demeanor added immense value to the trip. He went above and beyond to ensure that every traveler felt comfortable and had a memorable experience. The accommodations, transportation, and local experiences were all top-notch. I highly recommend them for anyone looking for a well-organized, hassle-free, and enriching travel experience. Thank you, Sanjeevji and the entire Divas Sojourn team, for an unforgettable Rajasthan adventure! 😊

Recently I did a Rajasthan tour with Sanjeev Jaitly as our tour leader. It was a very memorable and fantastic trip. I happened to fall sick during the trip. Thankfully doctor assistance was provided immediately which helped me recover in record time and enjoy the trip. Thank you Divas Sojourn for a wonderful experience. You rock!!!

I had a Wonderful Experience with Divas Sojourn Travel . I am grateful to Pooja Malhotra mam & her Amazing Team. I took the Ooty package. This was my 1st solo tour. Sanjeev Jaitley Sir was our tour guide. He was very well informed, cooperative, friendly & made our trip super Fun. Reema Mam helped me through all the details & paperwork. She has a lot of patience. The Team is Dedicated, Motivated & coordinated. Each fellow traveling lady was from a different part of India, which made the experience great as I gained new friends. Each hotel we stayed at was in some of the most beautiful locations with yummy hot food, clean spacious rooms. My tour was Exquisite. I plan to take many more trips because Diwas Sojourn & their Team were excellent. Our guide, Mr. Sanjeev Jaitley Sir made us all feel safe, secure & relaxed. With the countries they cover, you bet I will be travelling a lot in the coming seasons. The amazing part is they have a trip planned for each month with so many options. The Prices are very reasonable . I am amazed how they can!! Providing all the 5 star luxuries, a comfortable luxury bus & all other facilities. Going on my own would have cost me easily double, with all other hassles. Thankyou Dear Diwas Sojourn Team🌹 Thankyou Pooja Malhotra mam. 🌹 Wishing you All The Best in the New Year.🎊🎉 Dr Vandana Tiwari

The most fantastic trip to Dubai with Divas Sojourn. Thanks to Pooja, Sanjiv and Reema for this memorable experience. The itinerary was meticulously planned to include all major tourist hubs and also few places which is unique and cannot be seen with other travel agencies. My only feedback will be to plan trip preferably with people of same age group and ask for room preferences before booking. Highly recommended!

Russia tour packages for women are becoming an exciting option for Indian women who want to experience a destination that feels dramatically different from a conventional European holiday. From the grand streets of Moscow and the extraordinary Moscow Metro to the Arctic landscapes of Murmansk and Teriberka, Russia offers history, culture, snow, adventure and one unforgettable bucket-list experience: the Northern Lights.


But for a woman travelling for the first time, the question is rarely just, “Where should I go in Russia?”

You may also be wondering:

Is Russia comfortable for women travelling solo? Is a women-only group better than travelling alone? How much does a Russia trip from India cost? What is included? What should I pack? Is the Northern Lights experience worth it? How does the visa process work? And who will help me if something goes wrong during the trip?

That is exactly where a carefully designed Russia tour package for women can make a difference.

Divas Sojourn has designed its Russia Northern Lights women-only trip around these concerns, combining Moscow, Murmansk, Teriberka and St. Petersburg into an 8-day experience with international flights from Delhi, domestic flights, a high-speed train, guided sightseeing, two aurora-hunting experiences, an igloo-house stay and a Divas Sojourn tour leader. The currently published departure is 5th–12th October 2026, for 7 nights / 8 days, with the package currently listed from INR 347,999 per person.

Why Choose Russia Tour Packages for Women?

A Russia holiday can be extraordinary, but it is also a destination where logistics matter.

Russia is geographically huge. Travelling between Moscow, Murmansk and St. Petersburg requires coordination of flights, ground transfers and rail travel. Add Arctic weather, late-night aurora hunting and excursions outside the city, and a self-planned trip can become complicated very quickly.

This is one of the biggest reasons women consider Russia tour packages for women instead of building every part of the journey themselves.

A well-planned women-only group gives you:

  • A fixed itinerary
  • Organised intercity transportation
  • Accommodation selected in advance
  • Local guides
  • A tour leader
  • Group companionship
  • Scheduled sightseeing
  • Planned Arctic experiences
  • Support during transfers and excursions
  • Less time spent solving travel logistics

For women who have always wanted to travel internationally but have been waiting for the “right people” to go with, a women-only Russia trip can be a particularly attractive middle ground.

You can travel independently enough to enjoy the destination while still having the reassurance of a group around you.

Why Russia Is Worth Visiting as a Woman Traveller

Russia gives you several completely different travel experiences within one journey.

Moscow: Grand, Historic and Photogenic

Moscow is where your Russia journey begins.

It is the Russia most people imagine: monumental architecture, elegant squares, famous churches, extraordinary underground stations and an unmistakable sense of history.

The Divas Sojourn itinerary includes major Moscow experiences such as:

  • Red Square
  • GUM Mall
  • Alexandrovsky Garden
  • Cathedral of Christ the Saviour
  • Zaryadye Park
  • Sky Bridge
  • Moscow Metro Tour

The Moscow Metro deserves special attention.

It is not simply a transportation system. Several stations are known for their elaborate architecture, chandeliers, sculptures and decorative details, making the metro itself part of the sightseeing experience.

For a first-time woman traveller, Moscow is an excellent introduction to Russia because you get culture, architecture, shopping, history and city experiences before heading north into the Arctic.

Murmansk: The Arctic Adventure Begins

The real adventure begins when you fly north to Murmansk.

Murmansk is one of the defining stops on Russia Northern Lights tour packages for women, because the Murmansk region is a popular base for aurora-hunting experiences.

The Divas Sojourn itinerary features:

  • Alyosha Monument
  • Five Corners Square
  • Kola Bay viewpoint
  • Nuclear Icebreaker Lenin
  • Aurora hunting
  • Sami Village experience
  • Teriberka excursion

This part of the journey feels completely different from Moscow.

The urban environment gives way to vast Arctic landscapes, winter scenery and long nights designed around the possibility of seeing the aurora.

Northern Lights: The Bucket-List Experience

For many women booking Russia tour packages for women, the Northern Lights are the biggest reason for choosing this destination.

The aurora is not a performance that begins at a fixed time.

You cannot book a “7:30 PM Northern Lights show.”

It is a natural phenomenon dependent on factors such as darkness, cloud cover, visibility and solar activity.

That is why a professionally organised itinerary matters.

Divas Sojourn’s Russia package includes two Aurora Hunting experiences, giving travellers more than one opportunity to chase the lights. The trip also includes a one-night Igloo House stay, with the tour page specifically highlighting the possibility of viewing the Northern Lights from your room.

This does not guarantee that the aurora will appear. No responsible travel company should promise that a natural phenomenon will definitely be visible.

What an organised aurora experience can do is improve your practical chances by taking you to suitable viewing locations and managing the transportation and timing.

What If I Don’t See the Northern Lights?

This is one of the most important questions to ask before booking any Northern Lights tour.

The answer is simple:

No tour operator can honestly guarantee the aurora.

Clouds, weather conditions and solar activity are outside anyone’s control.

What you can control is your itinerary.

A strong Russia tour package for women should give you multiple hunting opportunities rather than making the entire holiday dependent on one evening.

Divas Sojourn’s itinerary includes two aurora hunts, which gives travellers another opportunity if the first outing is not successful.

Teriberka: Russia Beyond the Cities

Teriberka adds a completely different dimension to your Russia women-only trip.

Instead of grand buildings and city streets, you experience Arctic coastline and dramatic natural scenery.

The published itinerary includes:

  • Teriberka Village
  • Dragon Eggs Beach
  • Snowmobile sleigh ride towards the Arctic Ocean
  • Frozen waterfalls

For many women, this is the part of the trip that turns a conventional Russia holiday into an adventure.

You are not simply checking destinations off a list.

You are experiencing an Arctic landscape that looks nothing like a typical city holiday from India.

Sami Village Experience

Another memorable element of the itinerary is the Sami Village visit.

The experience adds cultural context to your Arctic journey rather than focusing only on photographs and sightseeing.

For women who enjoy learning about local traditions, meeting communities and understanding how people live in different environments, this can become one of the most meaningful parts of the trip.

St. Petersburg: A More Elegant Side of Russia

After Murmansk and the Arctic landscapes, St. Petersburg brings a dramatic change of atmosphere.

The city is famous for architecture, canals, historic monuments and European-inspired urban beauty.

The Divas Sojourn itinerary includes a St. Petersburg city tour with attractions such as:

  • Kazan Cathedral
  • Peter and Paul Fortress

The trip also uses a high-speed train during the journey back towards Moscow, adding another memorable travel experience.

Russia Tour Packages for Women: Detailed 8-Day Itinerary

Day 1 – Arrival in Moscow

Your Russia women-only adventure begins in Moscow.

After arrival, you will be transferred according to the programme and given time to settle into your accommodation.

The first day is designed to help you transition into the group and destination rather than overwhelming you immediately with sightseeing.

This is particularly useful for first-time international women travellers who may already be managing a long international flight.

Day 2 – Moscow City and Metro Tour

Day two introduces you to the highlights of Moscow.

Expect a sightseeing experience around the city’s iconic areas, including Red Square, GUM Mall, Alexandrovsky Garden, Zaryadye Park and the Moscow Metro.

This gives you a combination of history, architecture, shopping and local urban experiences.

Day 3 – Moscow to Murmansk

Today you travel north towards Murmansk.

Once in Murmansk, the itinerary includes sightseeing around major attractions including Alyosha Monument, Five Corners Square, Kola Bay and the Nuclear Icebreaker Lenin.

The atmosphere changes dramatically as you move from Moscow’s grand urban environment into the Arctic north.

Day 4 – Sami Village and Aurora Hunting

Day four introduces you to Sami culture and the Arctic environment.

The Sami Village experience is followed by an Aurora Hunting tour.

This is one of the nights you will most likely be thinking about before the trip begins.

Keep your warmest layers, gloves, thermal wear and camera ready.

And remember: aurora viewing depends on nature, so treat the hunt as an adventure rather than a guaranteed show.

Day 5 – Teriberka and the Arctic Ocean

This is one of the biggest adventure days of your Russia women-only tour.

You travel towards Teriberka and experience the Arctic landscape, including Dragon Eggs Beach and frozen waterfalls.

The programme also includes a snowmobile sleigh ride towards the Arctic Ocean.

A special part of the day is the Igloo House stay, where the accommodation becomes an experience in itself.

Day 6 – Murmansk to St. Petersburg

You leave the Arctic behind and travel onward to St. Petersburg.

The change in environment can feel remarkable.

After several days focused on snow, Arctic landscapes and aurora hunting, you return to a beautiful historic city environment.

Day 7 – St. Petersburg City Tour

Your final full sightseeing day is devoted to St. Petersburg.

The programme includes major attractions such as Kazan Cathedral and Peter and Paul Fortress, alongside other city sightseeing.

Use this day to enjoy photographs, explore the city’s architecture and experience the atmosphere before returning home.

Day 8 – St. Petersburg to Moscow and Departure

Your Russia journey comes to an end.

The itinerary includes a high-speed train journey towards Moscow followed by onward departure.

You leave Russia with a combination of city memories, Arctic experiences, women-only group friendships and hopefully a collection of unforgettable Northern Lights photographs.

What Is Included in the Divas Sojourn Russia Tour Package?

The current published package includes a substantial list of services, which is particularly important when comparing Russia tour packages for women.

Included in the package:

Visa and insurance up to age 59 for Indian passport holders, as stated on the Divas Sojourn package page.

International flights from Delhi

Two domestic flights

One high-speed train

One-night Igloo House stay

Two Aurora Hunting experiences

Hotel accommodation with breakfast

Selected dinners, including one dinner in Moscow and three dinners in Murmansk

Airport and sightseeing transfers

Sightseeing by minivan/minibus according to the programme

Entry fees for specified monuments

0.5-litre water bottle per day per person on the bus

Professional English-speaking local guides

Divas Sojourn Tour Leader

5% GST + 5% TDS, as specified on the package page.

This level of inclusion is important when comparing the headline price of Russia tour packages for women.

A cheaper-looking package may not actually cost less once you separately add international flights, domestic flights, transfers, aurora tours, hotels, sightseeing and visa-related expenses.

What Is Not Included?

The package page also clearly identifies exclusions.

These include applicable guide charges where applicable, costs resulting from natural calamities or political disturbances, possible increases in taxes or fuel affecting transportation and land arrangements, anything not specifically listed in the inclusions, and mandatory tips of USD 5 per person per day as specified on the package page.

Always read exclusions carefully before making your booking.

A transparent Russia tour package for women should make both inclusions and exclusions clear.

Russia Tour Package Price for Women from India

The current Divas Sojourn tour page lists the Russia Northern Lights women-only trip from INR 347,999 per person.

You may find older articles, cached pages or other references showing different prices for the same destination. For example, an earlier Divas Sojourn Russia page listed the trip at INR 325,000, illustrating why travellers should check the live tour page before making financial decisions.

The final price can depend on travel inventory and other operational factors.

What should you compare when checking Russia tour prices?

Do not compare only:

Package A = ₹X

against

Package B = ₹Y

Instead compare:

  • Are international flights included?
  • Are domestic flights included?
  • Are hotel breakfasts included?
  • Are transfers included?
  • Are aurora tours included?
  • Is the igloo stay included?
  • Is the train included?
  • Are sightseeing entry fees included?
  • Is insurance included?
  • Is visa assistance/inclusion provided?
  • Is a tour leader travelling with the group?
  • Are taxes included?

That is the only meaningful way to compare Russia tour packages for women.

Russia Visa for Indian Women Travellers

Visa requirements are one of the most frequently searched questions by Indian women planning a Russia trip.

For Indian citizens, Russia’s Foreign Ministry lists India among the countries eligible for the unified e-visa, subject to the applicable rules.

According to the official Russian Foreign Ministry e-visa instructions, the unified e-visa is a single-entry visa, is valid for 120 days from the date of issue, and permits a stay of up to 30 days from entry. The application can be submitted no earlier than 86 days and no later than 4 days before the planned entry date.

The Russian MFA also says applicants need a machine-readable passport that is valid for at least six months from the date of application, along with the required digital photographs and other application details. Medical insurance valid in Russia is required for e-visa travellers except where a specific reciprocity exemption applies.

Important:

Visa rules can change.

Your travel agent should confirm your exact visa requirement and eligibility before departure rather than relying on an old blog article or social-media post.

Divas Sojourn’s current package specifically states visa and insurance are included up to age 59 for Indian passport holders.

Is Russia Safe for Women Travelling in a Group?

Safety is one of the biggest concerns for women searching for Russia tour packages for women.

No destination can be described as completely risk-free, and responsible travellers should always follow local laws, official travel guidance and the instructions of their tour leader and local guides.

The advantage of joining a professionally arranged women-only group is not that it makes every risk disappear.

The advantage is that you do not have to manage every transfer, navigation decision and late-night excursion completely by yourself.

For example, your itinerary includes aurora hunting at night.

A woman travelling independently would need to manage transportation, timing, weather and remote-location logistics herself.

On an organised trip, these elements are coordinated as part of the tour.

That is particularly valuable for first-time international travellers.

Is a Women-Only Russia Trip Suitable for Solo Women?

Absolutely—this is one of the strongest reasons to consider Russia tour packages for women.

You do not need to wait for your spouse, family or friends to have matching holiday dates.

You can book as an individual woman and join a group of women who also want to travel.

This creates a different type of holiday.

You can start the trip as a solo traveller and potentially finish it having made new travel friends.

For women who want independence without complete logistical isolation, that can be a powerful combination.

Who Should Book Russia Tour Packages for Women?

This trip is particularly suitable for:

First-Time International Women Travellers

You want to travel abroad but feel overwhelmed by planning flights, hotels, transfers and sightseeing yourself.

Women Travelling Solo

You want the freedom of travelling without waiting for friends, but prefer travelling as part of a women-only group.

Adventure-Loving Women

You want something more memorable than a standard city holiday.

Northern Lights Dreamers

Seeing the aurora is on your bucket list and you want to combine it with a broader Russia experience.

Women Who Prefer Premium Planning

You value organised transport, comfortable accommodation, local guides and a tour leader instead of handling every booking individually.

Women Travellers Looking for a Different Destination

You have already visited typical international destinations and want something more unusual.

What Should Indian Women Pack for Russia?

Packing is especially important for this trip because Murmansk and Teriberka can be extremely cold.

Your packing list should prioritise warmth rather than fashion alone.

Clothing

Pack:

  • Thermal inner layers
  • Insulated winter jacket
  • Fleece or wool mid-layer
  • Warm trousers
  • Waterproof outer layer
  • Woollen socks
  • Thermal socks
  • Waterproof winter boots
  • Warm gloves
  • Inner gloves if needed
  • Woollen cap
  • Neck warmer or scarf
  • Comfortable clothes for hotel and travel days

Beauty and Personal Care

Cold weather can be harsh on exposed skin.

Bring:

  • Moisturiser
  • Lip balm
  • Sunscreen
  • Hand cream
  • Personal medications
  • Basic toiletries
  • Hair essentials

Electronics

Bring:

  • Phone
  • Power bank
  • Camera
  • Extra camera batteries
  • Universal travel adapter
  • Charging cables
  • Memory cards

Cold temperatures can reduce battery performance, so keep spare batteries protected and warm when possible.

Documents

Carry:

  • Passport
  • Visa/e-visa documents
  • Flight details
  • Travel insurance documents
  • Hotel information
  • Emergency contact details
  • Copies of important documents

Keep both digital and offline copies.

What Food Can Indian Women Expect in Russia?

Russia offers a wide range of local and international food.

Traditional dishes you may encounter include:

  • Borscht
  • Pelmeni
  • Pirozhki
  • Blini
  • Soups
  • Potato-based dishes
  • Breads and pastries

For vegetarian travellers, food planning should be discussed before departure, especially for remote Arctic excursions.

Large cities generally offer more variety than remote locations.

If you have dietary restrictions, allergies or religious food requirements, communicate these to Divas Sojourn before booking so that the team can advise you about practical arrangements.

How Much Free Time Will I Get?

A group tour is designed around a structured itinerary.

That means you get the advantage of seeing a lot within eight days, but you should not expect an entirely unstructured holiday.

The major attraction of Russia tour packages for women is that transportation, sightseeing and key experiences are planned for you.

There may still be some free time during portions of the journey, depending on the day’s schedule and operational conditions.

This balance is particularly helpful for women travelling internationally for the first time.

Why Book Russia Tour Packages for Women with Divas Sojourn?

There are many Russia travel companies.

So why should a woman choose Divas Sojourn?

1. Women-Only Travel

The trip is specifically designed for women.

That creates a different group dynamic from a conventional mixed-group tour.

2. Built Around the Female Traveller Experience

Divas Sojourn specialises in travel experiences for solo women travellers, rather than treating women-only travel as a small add-on to a conventional tour product. The company’s published positioning focuses on curated experiences for solo women travellers.

3. You Don’t Have to Find a Travel Companion

One of the biggest barriers to international travel is waiting for someone else to commit.

With a women-only group trip, you can make the decision for yourself.

4. Major Travel Logistics Are Organised

International flights from Delhi, two domestic flights and a high-speed train are part of the published package.

5. Two Aurora Hunting Experiences

Seeing the Northern Lights is never guaranteed, but two scheduled hunts provide more than one opportunity to experience the Arctic night.

6. Igloo House Experience

This is not just another hotel night.

It is one of the signature experiences of the trip, with the published itinerary highlighting the possibility of viewing the aurora from the room.

7. Local English-Speaking Guides

Local guides can help you understand the destination beyond simply taking photographs.

8. Divas Sojourn Tour Leader

A dedicated tour leader adds a familiar point of contact throughout the group journey.

9. Clear Package Structure

A detailed inclusion and exclusion list makes it easier to understand what you are paying for.

Russia Tour Packages for Women vs Planning Russia Yourself

Should you book independently?

You certainly can.

Independent travel may appeal to highly experienced travellers who enjoy booking every hotel, transfer and excursion themselves.

But the calculation changes for an Arctic trip.

A self-planned trip may require:

Multiple flight bookings.

Multiple hotel bookings.

Airport transfers.

Domestic travel.

Train reservations.

Aurora excursions.

Teriberka transportation.

Local sightseeing.

Visa arrangements.

Travel insurance.

Different operators.

Different cancellation conditions.

A professionally arranged Russia tour package for women combines much of that complexity into one organised journey.

For a first-time traveller, the convenience can be worth as much as the destination itself.

How to Prepare Mentally for Your First Women-Only Russia Trip

A first international group trip can feel exciting and intimidating at the same time.

You may wonder:

“Will everyone know each other?”

“What if I am travelling completely alone?”

“What if I am the quietest person in the group?”

“What if I have never travelled this far before?”

These are normal questions.

Remember that many women who join women-only trips are travelling because they also want companionship, confidence and a chance to do something outside their usual routine.

You do not have to arrive with a ready-made best friend.

Start with a simple conversation.

“Where are you travelling from?”

“Is this your first Divas Sojourn trip?”

“Have you seen the Northern Lights before?”

Group trips often create friendships naturally because everyone is sharing the same flights, sightseeing, meals and experiences.

Is October a Good Time for This Russia Women-Only Trip?

The published Divas Sojourn departure is 5th–12th October 2026.

October brings long evenings and the beginning of the colder Arctic travel season, making it possible to combine city sightseeing with Northern Lights hunting.

However, Northern Lights visibility depends on natural conditions, so the correct expectation is:

You are booking an opportunity to chase the aurora—not a guaranteed aurora sighting.

This distinction is important when selecting Russia tour packages for women.

What Makes This Trip Different from a Normal Russia Holiday?

A standard Russia holiday may focus mainly on Moscow and St. Petersburg.

This trip goes further.

It combines:

Capital city + Arctic city + Arctic coastline + indigenous cultural experience + Northern Lights + unique accommodation + high-speed rail + women-only group travel.

That combination is what creates the distinctive value of this Russia women-only tour.

Common Mistakes First-Time Women Travellers Make

Choosing a Package Only Because It Is Cheap

The cheapest Russia tour package may not be the best value.

Compare inclusions.

Ignoring the Arctic Weather

Murmansk is not Moscow.

Pack for the cold.

Expecting a Guaranteed Aurora

No ethical operator can guarantee a natural phenomenon.

Leaving Visa Preparation Until the Last Minute

Start your documentation early and confirm your specific requirements.

Packing Only Fashionable Clothes

Your Instagram photos matter—but staying warm matters more.

Not Asking About Food

Tell your travel company about dietary requirements before departure.

Not Reading Exclusions

Unexpected costs can create unnecessary stress.

Women who want an international adventure, Northern Lights experience, Arctic travel, cultural sightseeing or a solo-friendly group holiday can all be strong candidates for a women-only Russia trip.

How do I book a Russia tour package for women?

Start by enquiring with Divas Sojourn, confirm the latest departure availability, final package price, passport/visa eligibility, rooming arrangement, payment schedule and any dietary or personal requirements before making your booking.

Final Thoughts: Is a Russia Tour Package for Women Worth It?

For the right traveller, yes.

A Russia women-only trip is not simply a sightseeing holiday.

It is the experience of standing beneath Arctic skies in Murmansk.

It is travelling through Moscow and seeing Red Square in person.

It is exploring the Moscow Metro.

It is driving towards Teriberka and seeing the Arctic Ocean.

It is experiencing a Sami cultural visit.

It is sleeping in an igloo-style accommodation.

It is chasing the Northern Lights at night.

It is discovering St. Petersburg.

And perhaps most importantly, it is doing all of this without waiting for someone else to decide that they are ready to travel with you.

For a woman who has been saying, “I want to take an international trip, but I don’t have anyone to go with,” a women-only Russia tour package can turn that sentence into a real journey.
