Radius guides are professional walkers
We organize private cultural walks and work as guides in Moscow.
Moscow studies is not a service, but a level of immersion.
The team includes guides with a theatrical, journalistic, historical, and architectural background.
Therefore, each excursion is not just a story, but a living, precisely constructed experience.
Craft among excursions
People come to us for walks that are not found on standard excursions:
— for two, companies and special formats,
— for those who have already seen Moscow and want to go deeper,
— for foreign and demanding guests.
Choose a route or set a goal – we will put together a tour just for you.
The tour guides are "on the level"
- Stylish, intelligent guides without the “old school”
- Lively speech without cliches and memorized texts
- On foot, by car, by water
- In Russian, English, German, Spanish, Hebrew
Anton Latynin Moscow expert, theater and literary critic, author and leader of dozens of thematic excursions around Moscow in Russian, German and English. He received higher education in Russia and Germany. Graduate of the National Research University Higher School of Economics with a degree in journalism and media communications. A native Muscovite.
In addition to our ready-made excursion programs, we offer guided tours by the hour in Russian and foreign languages, on foot or by car with a driver. We select a guide based on the task, language, route, format, and date—for a private walk, Moscow visits, business meetings, or unusual city experiences.
What tasks do you need a guide for?
Walking tour around the area
For yourself, friends, or family: Arbat, Zamoskvorechye, Basmanny, Presnya, Khamovniki, and other districts—without cliches or memorized text.
Guests from another city or country
We'll welcome your guests, explain Moscow in real-life terms, and tailor your itinerary to your pace, interests, and available time.
Sightseeing tour by car
We'll put together a clear route through the city's main points, add a driver, stops, and the desired ending to the program.
Foreign language
We conduct tours in English, German, Spanish, and Hebrew, and, where necessary, we accommodate guests' cultural backgrounds.
Corporate program
We work with teams, clients, partners, and educational groups: from a small walk to a large series of excursions.
Route for the task
If a ready-made route is not enough, we create a custom program: district, theme, object, biography, profession, or event.
How we work
In the "We Work!" section, you can see how real orders are structured: we travel to the location, plan the route, select a guide, language, transportation, timing, and accents tailored to the specific audience.
Urban theme for the task
A route through VDNKh and old Moscow was put together for company employees: the theme, audience, and district were combined into a cohesive program.
Cozy architecture
A chamber format, atmospheric details, and a vibrant city: sometimes it's not the scale that's most powerful, but the precise mood of the route.
A cozy walk for foreigners
For foreign guests, the route can be about more than just monuments: museums, cafes, walks, shopping, and the city through the eyes of locals.
Corporate classics
For a large company, reliability, repeatability, clear organization, and guides who can lead the group without being too formal are important.
Informal corporate party
When a group needs more than a dry overview, but a lively evening format, the route can be designed around atmospheric locations and interaction.
Group with several guides
For corporate groups, we select not only the theme, but also the number of guides, the rhythm, meeting points, and a clear flow of movement.
Route from scratch
A program around the area and residential complex was developed for the developer, rather than just a standard walk.
Large groups
Large groups require not only guides, but also organization: timing, transportation, division of participants, and support.
Personal walk
For one guest, the route can be made more precise: more dialogue, details, and unexpected turns.
Radius style
We don't sell mechanical narratives at monuments. A Radius guide runs the route like a live urban show: with drama, precise delivery, contextual awareness, and attention to the people walking alongside.
Anton
A thought leader, route creator, creative director, and co-founder of Radius. A journalist by training, a tour guide by passion. He has been working as a guide since his student days. He considers his native Moscow the best city on Earth and is eager to convince his audience of the same during his tours. Anton strives to constantly expand his own circle of interest, is fanatically passionate about the past, present, and future of the capital, and is eager to share this passion with others.
Anastasia
The most charming presenter on the Radius team. Her professional delivery, broad erudition, natural charisma, and easy communication skills regularly captivate both sophisticated Russians and discerning foreign audiences. A graduate of a foreign language institute, Nastya is equally captivating in leading tours in Russian, English, and Hebrew. She is the voice of Radius: answering calls and emails, organizing tours, and closing deals.
Alexander
Graduate of the acting department of GITIS. The youngest and most energetic member of the team - a rising star of "Radius". Since childhood, he celebrated his birthdays in the Pushkin Museum of Fine Arts. A hereditary Moscow courtyard expert with experience. Extensive erudition, professional command of words, the author's method of constructing the dramaturgy of the excursion does not leave guests indifferent. Sasha combines the craft of a guide with active theatrical activity. An expert on literary routes, an expert on "hot spots", a prominent representative of the intelligentsia of the new generation.
Stanislav
A well-rounded individual. He graduated from the History Department of Moscow State University and the Law School of MGIMO. He readily combines his legal practice with his work as a tour guide. During his studies at the History Department, he specialized in the everyday culture of pre-revolutionary Moscow, which allows Stas to share unique facts during tours. Furthermore, with his experience in Orthodox services, Stas is well-equipped to lead pilgrimage tours to monasteries and churches in the Moscow region.
Dmitriy
A seasoned tour guide, a masterful storyteller, and an artistic personality, Dima is a truly sought-after specialist, conducting programs for several popular agencies. Over the years, of the many available tour formats, the only one he hasn't covered the capital's sights from the cockpit is a helicopter. In addition to narrative tours, Dima often leads singing tours.
Elena
A highly experienced guide with excellent command of foreign languages. She studied in Germany and, before the pandemic, specialized in working with international tourists in English and German. A responsible approach, attention to detail, and a polite manner are characteristic of Elena's tours. She has a particular fondness for Zamoskvorechye. Incidentally, Elena is a finalist in the "Moscow Masters" in the "Tour Guide" nomination.
Valeria
A presenter with spark and perky disposition. Will add sincere positivity to any excursion! Gets along well with children of different ages. Knows how to find the right approach and captivate even the most distracted age audience. Not afraid of non-standard routes, always open to development. Specializes in sightseeing routes and thematic excursions: “Heart of the Capital”, “Ghostbusters”, “Poklon City”.
Alexei
Another of our cheerful guides, a seasoned Moscow expert with a broad range of interests. Initially specializing in Spanish-speaking groups, he decided to expand his expertise beyond the narrow confines of inbound tourism. And Alexey has plenty to share! For example, he recently worked as a translator during the construction of new metro stations, and since then, he's become thoroughly familiar with the history of the Moscow underground.
Natalia
She worked as an announcer on the Moscow 24 channel, then in the news department. A desire to directly interact with people and share stories about her beloved city led Natasha to tour guiding. Experienced, proactive, and always smiling, she finds a personal approach to any visitor, from a capricious young visitor to a seasoned city expert. She excels at conducting sightseeing tours of all formats, from a large tour bus to a small yacht.

Reports from the section "Reports»
on the topic “our guides / tour guides”
Recently, the guides from the Radius personal tour agency gathered to walk one of their routes, share their impressions, and revamp their signature program, "Journey to Christmas." Anton, the tour leader and author, immersed the children in a magical fairytale atmosphere. During their walk around the city, the guides learned that Manezhnaya Square hosts a new exhibition each year. This year, they created themed zones: Crafts, Merchant, Noble, and Trade Moscow. A tall young man dressed in merchant attire walks along Merchant Moscow, while in Noble Moscow, a young man dressed in noble attire greets guests. Overall, the guides were pleased, combining business with pleasure: they reminisced about old experiences and learned something new, prepared for their guests, and thoroughly enjoyed their time with their colleagues.

The Radius individual tour agency periodically trains personal guides. Anton, who develops new and exciting tour itineraries around Moscow and then trains his colleagues, runs these courses. This time, the city guides took the "Window to Europe" route (formerly known as "Foreign Customs")—a route through the Lefortovo Park and District of Moscow, near the Baumanskaya metro station. Catherine's Palace is currently in disrepair, but if restored, it would become a true gem of the area. Many guides, and indeed anyone who has strolled here, are struck by the white and gray building with arches, built as part of a renovation program and housing residents from old five-story buildings. Each apartment has a balcony, and the whole place looks very charming. Read more...

An axiom of the tour guide profession is that any self-respecting tour guide should never stunt their development. Our agency has long had a tradition of group walks along our signature tour paths. These encounters allow for the exchange of knowledge and experience, broadening horizons, and capturing the dynamic changes in the city. It's helpful for guides to meet periodically, compare route maps, maintain a distinctive approach to presenting information, and reach a common understanding of the thematic content of their tours. Recently, our diligent five-person regular tour guide team—Anton, Alexey, Anastasia, Elena, and Valeria—took a group walk through the alleys and courtyards of the Arbat area. Read more...

Local history isn't just about excursions. From time to time, fellow Moscow experts hold thematic conferences. Anton Latynin, head of our bureau, attended one such scientific and practical event, organized by the Basmania Museum. The venue was the Museum of Moscow on Zubovsky Boulevard. The conference, codenamed "Waters of Basmania," was dedicated to the historical and natural heritage of the Basmanny District. The invited experts focused on water—the Yauza River, its underground tributaries, and the historical heritage along its banks. They discussed various typologies of district identity, from palaces to factories. Of particular interest to conference guests and attendees was the experts' insights into the vibrant life of the city's rivers and streams, which is often invisible on the surface. Read more...

Have you noticed, friends, how hot spots and atmospheric drinking establishments have been popping up like mushrooms after rain in the capital's countryside in recent years? Whatever you say, our society is experiencing an extraordinary gastronomic boom right now. The variety of formats and ways to while away your time with a glass of wine is off the charts. Even the most seasoned connoisseurs of drinking establishments can't always keep up with new discoveries. Periodically, it's essential to patrol familiar streets and spot new establishments. With this goal in mind, two of our main drinking guides, Anton and Alexey, recently embarked on a reconnaissance mission to discover the latest "hot spots." The expedition was quite successful. The guys spotted several unique drinking holes. During their tour, they even came up with a preliminary concept for "Hot Spots 2," a sequel to the program beloved by many. Read more...
