A walking tour in the Big City area, the most modern and dynamically developing part of Moscow. This excursion provides an opportunity to get acquainted with both historical sights and the newest high-rise symbols of the capital. On the route: Poklonnaya Gora, Triumphal Arch, Borodino Panorama, Kutuzovskaya Izba, Sberbank City High-Rise Complex, Fomenko Workshop, Bagration Bridge, skyscrapers of the Moscow City quarter.

If you wish, after the excursion you can purchase a ticket to the highest observation deck in Europe, located on the 89th floor (approximately 2290 rubles for an adult) and go up there on your own or with our guide.

Background

Moscow International Business Center "Moscow City" is a developing business district in Moscow on Presnenskaya Embankment. The first plans to create an international business district in Moscow appeared back in 1991.

Now Moscow City is the first stage of creating the Moscow region “Big City”. “Moscow - Big City” (less commonly “Moscow - New Center” or “Moscow-City-2”) is a new district already being designed in Moscow. It is assumed that it will be located on the site of former industrial zones between the Moscow City under construction and Khoroshevskoye Highway (total area - about 1000 hectares).

Additionally

Often, in addition to a walk around the Moscow-City area, clients want to go up to the observation deck to fully experience being in a skyscraper. Therefore, in addition to our signature route "Poklon-City", there are options with a climb to the skyscraper "Federation Tower" (observation deck Panorama 360) and a tour at the top.

 

  • Excursion around Moscow City and ascent, 2.5 hours

The guide will walk with you around the City, telling you about the area. Next, you go up to the observation deck together, where he will continue the story about the complex of skyscrapers and about the part of Moscow that can be observed from the observation deck.

 

  • Excursion “Poklon City” and ascent, 3.5 hours

With this option, excursionists on the Poklonnaya City route described on this page will walk from Poklonnaya Gora, hear about the military history of our country and see the adjacent sights of Moscow in peacetime. And at the end, they will ascend with a guide to the Moscow-City skyscraper.

  9. Anastasia, good morning!
    Thank you and Masha for yesterday!
    The speakers are happy. The connection in the headphones often failed, especially at the checkpoint, but this is our current life situation. It was audible if they were standing close, no further than 1.5 meters. Colleagues have already asked for your contacts. I will gladly share and will be glad to have a new opportunity to work with you. Special thanks to the Director for the Bureau

  13. Excursions with the travel agency "Radius" are always positive emotions for you, if you have chosen this agency. On your next visit, you planned an excursion to Zamoskvorechye. This is not the first time we have met with the guide Anton. We definitely recommend him to all our friends. The tour is educational, not overloaded with dates, the information is voluminous, but easy to perceive, because it is presented not like in a history textbook, dryly and academically, but in a light narrative manner. Thank you for this approach. We will contact the Radius bureau more than once on our next visit to Moscow.

  16. Studied together with relatives and Radius The soul of Moscow on my birthday. Everyone enjoyed the walk immensely! Anton told us many interesting facts about the capital and its history, led us into such spiritual depths that no one present suspected. Although among us there were mainly those who either from birth or have been living in Moscow for a very long time and walk around it a lot. It was educational, soulful and unforgettable 🙂

    Overall, this wasn’t the first time I’ve walked around Moscow with Anton, and each time it was a real adventure!

  17. Anastasia, good afternoon!
    I wanted to express my gratitude once again for the wonderful excursion on Saturday - we really enjoyed the walk, the information and the communication with you, then we discussed for a long time what everyone remembered and what struck them. It would seem that you have lived in Moscow all your life, there was Moscow studies at school, but it turns out that you still don’t know so much!! In general, thank you very much, my mother said it was the best gift for her birthday!
    Note: this is about the excursion "Soul of Moscow«

  18. Good day to all! I would like to share my impressions of the excursion "Journey to Christmas". Our guide was Anastasia. So! Everything was just magical: a slight frost of -4, snow, numerous Christmas trees, decorations, lights, garlands and all this to the interesting educational story of Anastasia. Despite the fact that we knew something about the New Year, there was a lot that was new, unexpected and interesting. And all this to the music of Tchaikovsky. In general, we are delighted. Thank you for the New Year mood you gave us. It is priceless!!!! Thank you!

  22. On my birthday, I went on an excursion with my friends. "Sinister Places". Excellent entertainment for a company. Professional guide Anton - special thanks to him for an interesting story and route. All recommended places and drinks were a hit with everyone. Lots of interesting, curious and funny facts. Thanks to this agency and of course to the tour guide Anton.
    Vyacheslav December 9, 2024
  23. The excursion is unusual, unconventional, I really liked it. The involvement of a girl in the role of Nina from "The Seagull" harmoniously fit into the narrative. I recommend developing in this direction. "Apartment 44" came in handy exactly at the moment when it was most needed. My wife is very pleased with both the excursion and the painting.

    Note: Review of the excursion-performance, which the guide Alexander specially developed as part of the order "Dream Tour".
    Alexei October 29, 2024
  24. We were on the excursion "Sinful Places", our group was small, three people, one of whom had a birthday, which we told the guide Alexander, and the format of the excursion turned into a real holiday! In addition to the walk and very interesting facts on the topic of the excursion, we went to incredibly creative establishments with delicious drinks and unusual serving, a cheerful contingent and a cool unusual interior, our guide Sasha took into account all our little wishes, conducted the excursion very cheerfully and sincerely! Thank you very much for a wonderful holiday! Very cool, we are delighted!

  25. This is the second time I've been walking and wandering around Moscow with the private excursion bureau Radius. The founder, native Muscovite Anton Latynin, a theater and art critic, leads the excursions himself and out of love.

    "Theater capital" - an author's route through the places of Meyerhold, Stanislavsky, Nemirovich-Danchenko, Tairov (undeservedly forgotten, it was he who created the current Pushkin Theatre on Tverskoy Boulevard).

    Two and a half hours of fascinating stories and urban theatre legends. I'll tell you one:

    The great composer Sergei Prokofiev lived in Kamergersky Lane. And he managed to die on the same day as Stalin. There was a terrible crush in Moscow, everything was blocked off, the entire capital wanted to say goodbye to the leader. So, to see Prokofiev off, the coffin was carried out from Kamergersky Lane on the roofs. I can vividly imagine this picture.

Reports on the topic “Bow City”

On the fourth day of a private tour in Moscow, our guide Elena gave her guest a packed itinerary. It all began with a visit to the panoramic deck on the 89th floor of the Moscow-City complex. They reached the complex by metro, allowing them to experience the rhythm of city life. A surprise awaited them at the deck: the Chistaya Liniya company presented a new product—hot frozen tea. These were brightly colored berry bars that simply needed boiling water to create a fragrant drink. Read more...

Two beautiful ladies from Germany came to Moscow for a visit and contacted us for a personalized tour program. Lidiya Grigoryevna moved abroad thirty years ago from Kazakhstan. Her granddaughter, Nicole, is twenty and was born in Germany. This was her first visit to the Russian capital, while her grandmother had only previously been through Moscow. As a result, the young ladies spent several days exploring the city by car with a guide and driver, following a personalized program.

A couple of corporate excursions. The second - along Moscow City and Poklonnaya Hill

Guide Alexey takes a selfie while the bakers take photos on the Floating Bridge in Zaryadye.

The first excursion was for transport workers—"Poklonnaya City." The route from Poklonnaya Hill to Moscow-City could be called the "From Wars to Business through the Soviet Union" tour. During the traditional reminiscences of this walk, one of the participants recounted his great-grandfather, a Don Cossack who fought in the Civil War, including on the White side, and became a full Cavalier of the Soviet Order of Glory during the Great Patriotic War. Finally, the guests ascended the Federation Tower skyscraper. Bakers from St. Petersburg learned more about Moscow during another corporate program. Read more...

Tour of Moscow City for the management of JSC Russian Railways

Tour of Moscow City for the management of JSC Russian Railways

In the spring, we conducted a private tour for several Russian Railways employees. They enjoyed it so much that they decided to book a corporate tour for seven groups of Russian Railways management, totaling 79 people. Four groups took the "Poklon-City" route and four took the "Uncle Gilyai" route (about the life of the capital by the author of the legendary novel "Moscow and Muscovites"). We organize the tours. We request all the necessary information from our clients, discuss the details, and send the invoice. We also inquire with our partners, the main observation deck in Moscow City, "Panorama 360." We're waiting for the big day. Read more...

Advantages of individual excursions over group ones

  • The guide will not go anywhere without you. No one is in a hurry, see the sights at your own pace.
  • Individual guide remembers you, and you remember him. These moments remain in memory.
  • You hear everything the guide says, because he is literally right next to you and speaks only for you.
  • All attention is on you. Answers to all your questions.
  • Take a break when needed - to rest or take photos.
  • The guide doesn't make stops at points of sale (at least we certainly don't).
  • You choose when to start the tour. You don't have to get up early or come at an inconvenient time.
  • There is less strain on your hearing and attention, as the guide speaks only for you.
  • Your photos will not be crowded with other participants.
  • The opportunity to discuss personal impressions and emotions with the guide during the process.
  • Opportunity to gain insight or exclusive information.
  • Possibility of adapting the route to your preferences and interests.
  • An atmosphere of tranquility and privacy.
  • The excursion can be either educational or easy, depending on your wishes.
  • An individual tour of Moscow City allows you to immerse yourself more deeply in the atmosphere of the city.
  • We pay special attention to the places that interest you.
  • Without loud laughter and inappropriate jokes from other tour participants.
  • Possibility to visit places closed to large groups.
  • Absence of outside pressure.

How much more expensive are personal tours than mass tours?

If you are alone or in pairs, then a sum of several thousand for a walking tour of the city or twenty thousand for a car excursion is significant.

But if you're going for a walk with family or friends, the cost for an individual participant approaches one or two thousand - the amount that each person would pay for a group excursion with strangers.

For your group of 8 or more people, the price becomes even lower when calculated per person, making a private tour truly attractive.

***
A mass excursion is tourism, an individual excursion is a journey through the city’s secrets with a personal guide.

We offer a wide range of programs, as well as the development of individual routes. Our clients include both individuals and corporate customers, including such companies as Yandex, Faberlic, Uniqlo and Russian Railways.
