No need to guess
You can purchase a certificate for a specific excursion or an excursion of your choice - then the recipient will choose an excursion for himself with the help of our consultant when he decides to use it.
More fun together!
The certificate allows the bearer to take 4 more people with him. This means that the recipient will be able to take an educational walk around Moscow with friends, family or just the two of them with their loved one!

Radius Bureau - excursions you won't be ashamed to give as gifts

We offer private, customized tours of Moscow for those who want to give not just a gift, but a day in the city: with a good guide, a clear route, and conversation without the boring routine of a typical excursion.

We are trusted by major clients such as Yandex, Faberlic, Russian Railways, and developers such as Donstroy, Rodina, and Samolet, among others. We also maintain the same level of preparation for private clients: couples, families, friends, and small groups who come with a gift certificate.

A certificate for our own people, not a mass walk

A gift certificate is perfect for a small group: the recipient can come alone, with two people, or with four additional people. This allows for a personalized tour at your own pace, without the hassle of crowds or the feeling of being rushed through a gift.

You can gift a specific theme or leave the gift to the individual to choose from. Then, the recipient can choose their own itinerary with our consultant and use the certificate on a convenient day.

Why does this gift work?

  • The signature routes are led by guides who know how to hold people's attention and speak to real people, rather than lecture them into thin air.
  • The format can be easily adapted to the recipient: a family outing, a date, a meeting with friends, or a relaxing excursion for visitors to Moscow.
  • The price remains clear for a personal gift, and the impression is stronger than a regular card, item, or another souvenir.
  • The certificate can be quickly sent as a PDF or delivered, and the recipient can choose the tour date later.
