Family from Germany on a tour of Red Square and the Kremlin
On a beautiful June day, we conducted a private tour of the very heart of Moscow for a foreign family. The mother is Russian, the father is German and their little daughter enjoyed seeing the sights of the city under the sensitive guidance of our guide.
In Germany, this family lives in a small village with only a few houses. The excursionists' parents previously had their own farm, but now only a few inhabitants remain. But, despite this, the guests were friendly, inquisitive, and open to knowledge about the culture, architecture and history of Moscow.
The guests chose the “Heart of the Capital” route. The excursion took place in German.
We decided to start the sightseeing tour with St. Basil's Cathedral, also known as the Cathedral of the Intercession of the Blessed Virgin Mary. We also listened to men's choir church singing there. The father of the family really wanted to go on an excursion to the Kremlin, so we went there with a guide; tickets to the territory were booked by the guide in advance. And, since it was Saturday, the tourists were lucky enough to catch the changing of the guard of honor. Kremlin cadets impressed a foreign family with their article.
Then the guests visited GUM, where, of course, according to tradition, they tasted that legendary ice cream. The guide also showed the German guests images of the center of Moscow created many years ago, during Soviet times. This helped tourists even better track the changes and flourishing of the capital in different eras. They even asked Elena to then send all the photos to them by email, so that upon returning home they could admire photographs of GUM in seasonal decorations, as well as modern and rare views of the city. And at the same time remember this small but memorable journey.
You can also book a tour "Heart of the capital" and others.
A very nice young man, we visited with him such lovely courtyards, alleys, the existence of which we did not even suspect, we learned so many new things,
We really liked everything and hope to continue our acquaintance.
Alexander! Thank you! We had a great time with you and thoroughly enjoyed it. See you soon!
What we personally missed: we would have liked more of a historical section related to ancient Moscow and the history of Kitay-gorod. There were quite a few stories about the Soviet period and bar life, but for our group, it wasn't very relevant. We think the program could have been more tailored to the age and interests of the group.
It would also have been interesting to add more historical facts, monuments, and details about old Moscow and the area itself. That said, the tour was still interesting, and some places and churches were truly memorable. These aren't really "cons," but rather suggestions for an even more comprehensive program.
We had a corporate group of 10 people. Our guide was Anton, and we had a tour of Bulgakov. I would like to point out the excellent organization; everything went smoothly. The managers were very accommodating to our changes in the number of participants. The bus was very comfortable. Anton is a super-engaged and motivated guide.
He lives this story and takes great pleasure in sharing his knowledge and creating impressions.
Everything went well. I recommend it!

I'd like to express my gratitude and that of my supervisor for organizing the tour! We were very pleased.
We would like to repeat this in October, but on a different route – ZIL.
Note: This is about a tour for developers of the Samolet Group of Companies, conducted by guide Maria.
Was on excursions along Sukharevskaya Square – we reached Tsvetnoy Boulevard, I didn’t expect it to be so interesting!
For those who are wondering whether to go or not – go, it really has become one of the coolest summer memories!!!
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

It was very interesting to hear how the Krasnaya district developed. Presni, how Prokhorov's figure influenced the development of our city. A pleasant dive into a quiet, previously unexplored area!
Note: we are talking about the excursion with the guide Anton
There was a great tour of the area. Patricks.
We learned a lot of new things. Anastasia is a master of her craft. The tour was exciting, not boring at all, lively and interesting. Everyone was satisfied. Full of new impressions. I definitely recommend it. You will be satisfied!
Overall, this wasn’t the first time I’ve walked around Moscow with Anton, and each time it was a real adventure!
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“
