HOW TO CHOOSE
Choose the tour that best fits your day
This is the shortcut we would use ourselves.
First time in Moscow
Start with the City Tour. Add the Kremlin when you want the landmark core and have the time for it.
Art, museums and focused themes
Choose Tretyakov for Russian art, the Bolshoi for theatre heritage, Cosmonautics for space history, or the Soviet Moscow & VDNH route for architecture and pavilions.
Day outside the city
Sergiev Posad is the closest classic day trip; Vladimir and Suzdal are for a fuller Golden Ring day.
Custom or family pace
Use a custom day when guide, car, tickets and breaks need to work as one plan.
BEFORE YOU CONFIRM
We confirm the important details in advance
Guide and language
A licensed private guide for your group, with the museum or route expertise the day needs.
Tickets and entrances
Museum and monument timing is checked before we promise a route that depends on it.
Transport and pickup
Walking, car, metro or rail timing are selected around the actual route.
Realistic pacing
A shorter, well-paced day is better than rushing through a longer list of sights.
