The couple plan to visit the US consulate and see the city's sights. They will visit the fountains of Peterhof, the Yekaterina palace in Pushkin, the Yusupov palace and they will also visit the Piskaryovsky cemetery to pay their respects to the victims of the Leningrad blockade. In addition, the famous couple will be treated to a private evening of ballet in the Mariinsky Theatre.
After visiting Saint Petersburg Mr and Mrs Bush will travel to Sochi to meet Russian President Vladimir Putin and then to Moscow where they will meet former president of the USSR Mikhail Gorbachev.
