It's been possible since at least 1812.

You need a Visa to visit Russia.

You need to be invited (Someone offering you a work-place, or a place
within college or some-such) in order to obtain a Visa.

You get one visa in, one visa out. So, should you wish to visit a
place that is outside of the boundaries of Russia, it's the long way
home I'm afraid.

I've been looking into this for a trip to Kaliningrad.

Yes, and tourist visas are readily available.

A hotel will arrange a tourist visa.

He'll be entering Russia at the Polish-Russian border, at which point
he'll be stamped "in". He'll go to Moscow, have a pleasant few days,
and drive back to the Russian-Polish border, at which point he'll be
stamped "out".

What's so hard about this?

 

Biffa Bacon (mobile) scribbled on the back of a napkin:

Hell of a long way to walk tho' if/when your bike gets nicked.

 

Taking a car, innhe?

Drive = car. Ride = bike.

 

....or some bugger blows up yer panzer.

 

Rubbish. As Blaney, said, tourist visas are readily available from hotels or
from a number of specialist travel agents.

Err, wrong again. I had one visa. It's still in my passport actually.

 

I only had one visa which was originally a 28 day single visit one
that I had replaced with a 12 month multiple visit visa simply by
making a phone call. What made it even better was that my original
visa wasn't for Russia but the replacement one allowed me into the
country. Working on a part Russian JV had it's good points.

 

Pip scribbled on the back of a napkin:

Not that it'll make it less nickable unless you drive a Lada.

 

The Older Gentleman scribbled on the back of a napkin:

Yebbut, you maybe able to find spare parts in the woods where grampa
park his...

 

He might want to visit Afghanistan, and Poland isn't on the way?

 

Or a Trabant?

Should get a T34. Should even be able to find some spares.

 

Been there. It's not really worth visiting.

 

I've got some hilton honours to use up, does Baku have a Hilton ;-)

 

You want the Mustafa Hotel in Kabul. It's a -2 star.

 

Isn't that against the charter?
