About What is needed to fly to europe from US and take either the train or bus to st petersburg, russia

What is needed to fly to europe from US and take either the train or bus to st petersburg, russia?
I am planning on flying to England or Germany from Las Vegas and then taking land transportation to St Petersburg Russia to save money. I know Russia requires a visa to stay there but are any other visas or transit visas required to travel through the european countries? Need real answers, damn it.

Answer 3 :
Why on earth you would want to fly to England or Germany then take land transportation to St. Petersburg is beyond my comprehension. Berlin to St.Petersburg by shortest land route is 1600 kilometres London to St. Petersburg is 260 kilometres and a ferry crossing would be required. Cheapest method is a flight from Las Vegas to St.Petersburg with flight changes in London and one of the main airport hubs in Europe, preferably booking a through ticket.
Answer 4 :
Why do you assume that ground transportation will be cheaper than flying into St Petersburg? First, you don't want to fly into London because ground transportation from there pretty much means taking the Eurostar to Paris as a start and that's expensive. Germany is closer to St Petersburg and there are budget flights to St Petersburg on Germanwings, Air Berlin and /or Air Baltic from many cities in Germany. see: http://www.whichbudget.com/ or http://www.skyscanner.net/ which are two good sites for finding budget flights here in Europe. It's faster, cheaper and you don't have to worry about visas other than the one for Russia

Answer 1 :
Yes, it should be plenty warm to swim. I've visited the St. Petersburg, Clearwater, Tampa area several times and it's always been warm enough to swim this time of year. The weather is usually warm to a little hot, with some occasional thunderstorms. It's not as hot and humid as summer, so that's good. It's usually around 80 degrees F this time of year in the daytime. St. Petersburg has a beautiful Pier and beaches. Also, Caladesi Island, located just north of Clearwater Beach, is gorgeous. I took a ferry to get there, because no cars are allowed on the island. It has a very clean, lovely beach. I highly recommend going there since you'll be in the area.
Answer 2 :
Most of the tourist find it more than acceptable to swim in the weather this time of year. You'll find us locals still wearing our parkas though, lol. We're so spoiled

I'm not familiar with the florida area and could have a prospective job and would relocate from another state. I guess from downtown tampa(USF) to st. petersburg (USF campus) I would say the travel points.

Answer 1 :
I have not heard of them, but be aware that there are a lot of fly by night places like that in Florida. Try a Google search and see if you get some hits, particularly reviews. Remember if it sounds too good to be true it probably is. Take a look at this: http://www.ripoffreport.com/reports/ripoff236000.htm Thursday February 1st we attended a sales presentation at 3:45pm in the Embassy Suites, Baymeadow Road, Jacksonville, Florida. The presenters represented United Vacation Network of 3690 East Bay Drive, Largo, FL 33771, and they also do business under the name Suncoast Travel Network. We were induced to attend by an offer for a free gift of a four day, five night cruise. The corporate logos of Carnival Cruise Line and Royal Caribbean Cruise Lines were printed on the offering card

Answer 1 :
Average time between two cities is usually 8 hours. The best time to travel is to take a train at midnight, sleep on the train and you are at your destination early in the morning. There are speedy trains that only take 4 to 5.5 hours. Obviously those are more expensive. Traveling by train is usually much cheaper. However, if you are taking a luxury compartment or taking an express fast train, traveling by plane might be cheaper in some situations. I would still suggest traveling by train between two cities. Less hassle with baggage to deal with and transfers to and from airport can be pretty exhausting especially in Moscow. I would suggest buying train tickets in advance. It is a very popular route, therefore, tickets sell out pretty quickly.
Answer 2 :
There's a fast express train from Moscow to St. Petersburg called "Sapsan", but it's expensive too. Takes about 4 hours to cover 800 km distance between cities. U will loose more time in the airport with all those pre-flight procedures and baggage... If U wanna save take regular train
