Russia Tour Planning

Thinking of visiting Russia this July and have a few questions:

- I am planning on visiting Yekatrinberg and I noticed that Chelyabinsk is about 3 hours away. Is there anything to see in Chelyabinsk with respect to the meteor that crashed there not too long ago? I can fly into one airport and fly out of the other. Would a day be enough to see both places? In Yetatrinberg, I'm only planning on seeing the Church of Spilled Blood and Ganima Yama.

- St. Petersburg. How long would it take to see Peterhof? Would it be possible t see Peterhof, Hermitage, and the Peter & Paul Cathedral?

- Moscow. Are there official taxis? The last time I was, individuals were acting as cabs and it made me nervous and so ended up taking the bus to the airport.
