We have extensive experience in conducting excursions around Moscow for journalists and bloggers. As a rule, these are individual routes with the goal of “making you fall in love with Moscow” or simply telling a great story about a region or a topic for a specific event. For example, for the opening of a new brand store.
Excursions for journalists and bloggers around Moscow
Anton gave Garrett Johnston a personal tour of Moscow. This Russian-speaking Irishman, a renowned business strategist, was a guest on the tour through the Prechistenka and Ostozhenka districts. Anton, who had enjoyed Garrett's interviews many times, was delighted to meet him in person. Incidentally, Donstroy, whose employees we recently conducted a series of tours for, approached Garrett for a consultation. The expert himself sought our advice to better understand the historical and cultural context of Moscow's elite neighborhoods. Read more...

In early November 2022, the monument to Kuzma Minin and Dmitry Pozharsky, located on Red Square, was unveiled after restoration. The Ivanovo branch of the Russian Geographical Society, which was involved in the unveiling of the monument, commissioned a tour for its staff and students to commemorate the event. The guide was to meet the group at Vasilievsky Spusk at the designated time. Then, for an hour, they would share the most interesting and important moments related to the heroic deeds of Minin and Pozharsky, the monument itself, and highlights of nearby attractions.

The result of this creative collaboration is already available on YouTube: The route in the program is slightly different from the usual, but overall, all standards are met. Read more...

In March, Mosgortur contractors approached us with a request to conduct a tour for journalists from Saratov. These journalists were from the tourism industry. Our goal was to make them fall in love with Moscow. Here's a quick tour organization guide. We discussed all the details with the client, including the cost, and on May 28th, the group arrived on the designated route. We were required to lead the tour in a minibus from point to point: from the train station to the hotel, from the hotel to the Depot for breakfast, from the Depot to VDNKh, and from VDNKh to the Youth Palace.

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.
