We conduct excursions around Moscow on a Mercedes Sprinter minibus for groups from 7 to 19 people. For larger numbers of people, buses with 30-50 seats are used, for smaller numbers - minivans of the same German brand.
Excursions by Mercedes Sprinter minibus and bus in Moscow
The sightseeing tour, led by our guide, Valeria, was an unforgettable experience. The Artek teachers chose the symbolic beginning of September to enjoy Moscow at night. The tour departed from their hotel on Novoslobodskaya Street. The first stop was Red Square, where the group admired the splendor of GUM and St. Basil's Cathedral, illuminated by the lights. Next, the group headed to the Cathedral of Christ the Savior. At the observation deck of the Patriarch's Bridge, which offers a panoramic view of the illuminated Kremlin, Valeria explained the history of these majestic structures. The next stop was Vorobyovy Gory, where the participants admired the views of Luzhniki, Stalin's skyscrapers, and Moscow State University, taking souvenir photos. The journey continued toward Moscow City. Read more...

How do you organize an unforgettable nighttime tour of Moscow for a couple hundred teachers from Kyrgyzstan and Russia? Our tour agency has the answer! In mid-August, we organized a personalized adventure for teachers who had come to the Russian capital to explore its majestic streets and iconic landmarks. The three-hour tour began on Olympic Avenue, where our guests were amazed by the scale of the famous stadium's reconstruction. A guide on each of the four buses explained local attractions, including the rich history of Grandfather Durov's Corner. As darkness fell, Moscow at night lit up the tour participants with all its lights and colors. The tour participants traveled along Moscow's main ring roads, admiring the Garden and Boulevard Rings.

Mrs. World: A Tour of Moscow in Social Media Style
Mrs. World Tour of Russia's Capital. Participants are photographed near the Italian Grotto in the Alexander Garden
Today, our agency managed to organize a personal tour for true stars! In Moscow, guide Sasha accompanied the first African-American Mrs. World and her friends from the beauty pageant. It was a true highlight for all of us. Our guide took the participants to the capital's most iconic sites, including the Spasskaya Tower and Red Square. This unusual tour turned into a true cultural exchange: Sasha shared his knowledge, and a translator helped Miss World, an African-American, understand every word. It was a wonderful experience of interaction and collaboration. However, no matter how hard we tried to impress them with stories about Moscow, our guests' attention was riveted by creating content. They actively recorded reels and took photos with the city's landmarks. Read more...

Guides Anton and Alexey set off with the MGIMO participants on buses. The individual route took the shortest route along Vernadsky Avenue, offering magnificent views of the capital. The guides shared interesting information about Moscow and its landmarks, such as Moscow State University and the Cathedral of Christ the Savior. After disembarking at Vasilievsky Spusk, Masha and Nastya joined the guides, and the participants regrouped. Everyone was given headphones, and the organizers set a clear goal: be at the Kremlin's Kutafya Tower in an hour and a half so that the participants could attend the concert. Unfortunately, the tour began an hour later than scheduled, due to a delay caused by some participants. The group included many MGIMO students representing various regions, as well as guests from Transnistria and Armenia. Read more...

On the first day of summer, guests from China arrived in Moscow to take a guided tour of the city and learn many new and interesting things about the capital. The tour was conducted using radio guides: Elena spoke into a microphone, and guests heard her voice through headphones. The guide was also assisted by a translator, who explained any confusing points. The guests were eager to have Radius staff show them around the capital, so they agreed to have the tour translated into English. The group numbered over forty people, and Elena, the guide, met them in Skolkovo. As it happened, the guide had never been there before, but it turned out to be very conveniently accessible via the D1 line. Elena transferred at Belorusskaya station and boarded the comfortable and modern Ivolga train. Read more...

Top managers of Metro Cash & Carry from various cities, including Novosibirsk, Novokuznetsk, Zelenograd, and others, embarked on a sightseeing tour of the capital. They departed from their office, passed Leningradskoye Shosse and Leningradsky Prospekt, then drove along Tverskaya Street and saw the entire city center. They visited Red Square and strolled through Zaryadye Park. Naturally, the corporate guests wanted to stand on the Floating Bridge, and their wish came true. They wanted to take a photo by the fountain in the center of GUM, but the New Year's tree was already up, so they took a photo with it. Then, the group wanted a snack, found a place with delicious pies, and then continued their exciting tour. They made a stop at Vorobyovy Gory and took photos from both sides. Read more...

Our wonderful corporate excursionists gathered in the capital for a nutritionists' convention. Some of the girls were from Moscow, while others came from Rostov-on-Don, Ivanovo, and Nizhny Novgorod. All of them are studying at the International Center for Continuing Professional Education. Initially, the girls had requested a tour of the Stalinist skyscrapers, which they had never seen before. But by the time the guide arrived, the guests were eager for some sushi, champagne, and a little relaxation. They headed to the third floor of GUM, where they sat comfortably on the comfortable sofas right on the bridge. From there, they enjoyed a beautiful view of the Central Fountain. The girls had a wonderful time, chatting, and relaxing. Then, they all boarded a luxury car with leather seats and headed to Vorobyovy Gory. Read more...

Recently, we conducted a sightseeing tour for a prestigious group of oil workers from Uzbekistan. Zarubezhneft approached us with a request to organize a private sightseeing tour by minibus for colleagues after official events. The main objective was quite traditional—to impress with the beauty of central Moscow, so it was absolutely necessary to miss Red Square, Zaryadye Hills, the Cathedral of Christ the Savior, and the Patriarch's Bridge. In addition to postcard views of the Kremlin and its surroundings, we showed the distinguished guests of the capital the entire Boulevard Ring. True, exploring the sights involved occasional stops in everyday traffic, but then, jostling in tight traffic has long been an important part of Moscow tradition. Read more...

Author's extended sightseeing tour of Moscow for VTB by minibus
We contacted Unistaff Corporate Communications (an international agency that has been organizing and hosting high-level corporate events since 2004): We need to organize a bus and walking tour for 15 people on April 6th, from 2:00 PM to 6:00 PM. Guests need to be picked up from the Crowne Plaza Hotel, and the tour ends at Afimall, where they have dinner at 6:00 PM. The guests are Russian speakers, so the tour needs to be in Russian. We need something interesting, and a guide is essential. The participants are mostly men, with an average age of 45. We've been on sightseeing tours before, and this isn't our first time in Moscow. We need a guided tour; quests are not an option. We'll meet guests in the hotel lobby with a "VTB" sign. We've proposed a custom-designed itinerary, essentially an extended sightseeing program with a Ferris wheel for 4 hours: - The entire Boulevard Ring. Read more...

The first excursion was for transport workers – "Poklonnaya City." The route from Poklonnaya Gora 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. At the end, the guests ascended the Federation Tower skyscraper. During another corporate program, bakers from St. Petersburg learned more about Moscow. The best employees of one bread-producing company were given, among other things, a guided tour of the capital by car, which we warmly welcomed, and guide Alexey gave a competent introduction to the city.

Have you ever traveled around the city with a small group of friends or family on a vintage double-decker bus? And not just ride along a standard route, but choose your own desired locations, starting and ending points, and stop durations? Our clients, for example, have had this opportunity. Perhaps we can repeat it. We conducted our first private tour of this type this week. After receiving a request for this unusual order, we arranged a time and location with a friend who drives a vintage double-decker bus. We chose a guide experienced with children, as three of the four guests were children of various ages. We quoted the price to the client. We bought tickets for the "Flight over Russia" ride and the funicular on Sparrow Hills (these locations were part of the order). Read more...

Wedding excursions around the Patriarchal
Walking wedding tour of the Patriarch's Ponds
Late August. Excursions for bachelorette parties, birthdays, and weddings are in high demand! We're receiving two requests for excursions during a wedding, including the route from the registry office to the restaurant. One requested a tour using the agency's transportation, the other a walking tour. Both had romantic overtones, without dates or predetermined phrases. We're taking your requests into account. For the Moscow minibus tour, we developed two routes: one for rain, the other for clear weather. The exact number of guests in both groups wasn't known in advance. We initially announced 7-15 people each, aiming for the maximum. For the transportation excursion, we booked an 18-seat Mercedes Sprinter. The days of the excursions were fine in both cases.

Excursion support to the Red October factory
At the Red October factory
– Hello, is this the tour assistance team? – Good afternoon. Yes. What date and how many people would you like to book for? – We're organizing a corporate tour of the Red October factory in three days. We're short on guides. We'd like to book a guide who would tell guests about Moscow and its sights along the way to the factory. She'd be interesting, truthful, and have no dates. We're sending Nastya. We explain the task: to give a great overview of Moscow along the way to the factory, supervise the entry of the tour vehicles through the ancient front gates, and hand the guests over to the factory guide. We inform the client of the cost and accept payment. The guests in this case had their own tour bus. On the appointed day and time, the vehicle, the tour participants, and the guide arrived at the designated location, from where they departed for the factory. Read more...

A few words about regular tourists on historical walks around the capital
For almost a year, we've been running minibus tours of Moscow for a large government organization. The service began with a request just before New Year's and has continued successfully to this day. Initially, these were almost monthly groups of up to 18 people in a Sprinter. Now, we rent a bus for new city tours, as the number of employees seeking a cultural ride keeps growing. It goes like this: Once a month, we receive tour requests. We develop a route that might appeal to the client. We offer options from our existing tour menu, as well as create something new to suit the client. We write a description and send it to the client. Once approved, we invoice. Read more...

Excursion to a wedding. Twice
Guide Egor takes a tour to a wedding
Wedding tours are often requested. This Saturday, we had two wedding tours: a sightseeing tour by minibus for 12 people and a dream route, a customized tour for 25 people. Both began at the registry offices and ended at restaurants. We decided to add a twist to the sightseeing tour by minibus with a standard route, and the guide alternated between explaining the sights and singing along with the guests, using a harmonica and guitar. The client had been notified in advance, and they promised to sing along. The second tour was more moderate. Led by the director of the Radius bureau, the guests visited the Novodevichy Convent and other important places. Read more...

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.
