Why explore the Urals with us?
Because we offer a collection of unforgettable tours for every taste!

We believe that travel should be memorable – bright, unusual, and exciting! We constantly create new routes, original projects, and open up unique destinations for travelers. Our specializations are historical, interactive, and authentic eco-tours.

We know the secret to crafting unforgettable tours of varying difficulty and intensity. We have routes for beginners and experienced travelers, for young people, and for anyone who wants to discover and get to know the Perm region better.

What’s more, we are a client-oriented company – we take care of our travelers 24/7, and we offer hikes suitable for schoolchildren as well as active retirees. Curiosity and a desire to visit new places are the defining traits of our travelers. We do everything to ensure they have unforgettable experiences.
Our company "White Stone" was founded in 2004 and has been operating as a tour operator for 15 years (registration number in the tour operator registry: 020449). We offer not only a collection of time-tested tours but also actively develop new, original routes.

In 2018, we received the "Ambassador of Perm Krai" Award as the best domestic tour operator in the Perm region.

We have unique signature projects, including:
  • Interactive game programs in Khokhlovka (the project was a runner‑up in the All‑Russian Tourism Award "Route of the Year 2019", taking honorable second place);
  • Theatrical excursions "Perm: Living Histories";
  • Tram excursions with musical surprises;
  • Basegi Nature Reserve;
  • Fairytale Foothills: Luneg Mountains (the route was a finalist of the All‑Russian Tourism Award "Route of the Year 2019");
  • "Kyn – a portal to the beauties of the Ancient Urals";
  • Modular tour of Perm Krai "Along the Ural Ridge";
  • Creative Perm;
  • Perm – Land of Impressions.

With us, it's always interesting!

How we work

  • Recognition
    The efforts of the White Stone team have been highly appreciated. In 2018, we received the "Ambassador of Perm Krai" Award as the best domestic tour operator. In 2025, our company won two GRAND PRIX awards at the All-Russian Tourism Award "Route of the Year 2025".
  • For Young People
    We have been active participants in the tourism project and mobile app "Don't Stay Home" since 2018. We started developing youth tourism back in 2004. We are committed to actively engaging young people in exploring Perm Krai, which is why we design tours specifically for this audience
  • Ecotourism
    Developing ecotourism destinations is also important to us. Our stunning nature‑rich tours – "Basegi", "Usva", "Chusovaya River" – allow travelers to discover the region's unique beauty. Our new eco‑tour takes you to the "Luneg Mountains" nature sanctuary, a unique and little‑known location.
  • Mentorship
    Our company is also involved in training personnel for the tourism industry. We organize various seminars and workshops for tour guides in Perm Krai. Our theoretical courses are reinforced with practical experience and include numerous internship excursions around Perm and the region. Our former trainees can be found working at tourism companies and museums in Perm and the region.
  • Interactive Experiences
    Among our interactive tours in Perm Krai is not only the youth project "Khokhlovka – Lens of Time" at the Khokhlovka Museum, but also:
    - The "Perm: Living Histories" project (theatrical excursions around Perm);
    - Tram excursions (New Year's Tram, Victory Day Tram, and others).

    Just imagine celebrating New Year's merrily to the clatter of tram wheels – amazing memories guaranteed!

    "Kyn – a portal to the beauties of the Ancient Urals" is another unique creation of White Stone, as are the impressive "Routes of the Great Northern Expedition", "In Search of the Anfalovsky Settlement", and others.
    Following the paths of Yermak or visiting the lands of the Stroganovs will be interesting for travelers of all ages.
  • Ethno-tourism
    Ethnographic tours are attracting more and more people not only in Russia but also abroad. Last year, our ethno‑tours to the Perm Tatars and Bashkirs in the Bardymsky and Kungursky districts interested travelers from the United Kingdom and Finland.

    We have been developing this unique direction since 2010 and take pride in introducing travelers to the lifestyle and traditions of the Ural peoples. White Stone promotes not only the nature of Perm Krai but also the customs of its indigenous inhabitants.

    Our packages include both comprehensive and niche tours of the region, for example:
    - "Heavenly Fair of the Urals with a visit to the Preduralye Nature Sanctuary";
    - Religious tour "Temples of the Kama Sea".
  • Reliabiliti
    White Stone not only designs and conducts tours but also constantly cares for the comfort and safety of travelers. We work only with trusted partners. We are always in touch to answer any of your questions.

    Traveling with us is not only interesting - it's reliable!
