Excursions for the family. Individual family tour of Moscow

Our tours are mainly intended for adults and high school students, as these routes are cultural and historical rather than entertaining. However, we regularly organize tours for families with children of different ages, and our guides adapt the “adult” material so that it is interesting for the little participants. Moreover, some guides like to conduct tours for children almost more than for adults.

We believe that the most obvious routes for children are Ghostbusters Walking Tour And Sightseeing tour by car.

Today, a group of tourists from Almaty took a private tour. They were eager to see the most popular, interesting, and historically significant stations of the Moscow Metro in addition to the main sightseeing program.

A family from Nizhny Novgorod with two children flew to Moscow by helicopter, and a guide met them at the Reutov Heliport. The helicopter kicked up a snowstorm, making filming difficult—the snow was blowing in their faces. The couple flew to Moscow for a few hours individually to visit the exhibition in the "Regions of Russia" pavilion at VDNKh. The daughters saw an advertisement for the exhibition on TV and were thrilled. The exhibition had two halls. They first saw the North—the guests were interested in Kamchatka, as they were planning a trip there. The tour took about an hour. Read more...

The next day, we planned a family trip to Tsaritsyno and a cruise on the Radisson yacht. In Tsaritsyno, where the guests arrived by minivan, the tour participants had only 50 minutes, so we took an electric car, where the tour continued, this time with a recorded narrator explaining the park and the sights we passed. The park and palace were very picturesque. At the top, the guide took photos of the guests. As we descended the mountain, we passed a musical fountain. Read more...

On Wednesday, the guests had free time from the tours: they spent the day relaxing and shopping, and in the evening they attended a comedy performance. The next day, a minivan took the guests to Kubinka, to the Museum and Temple Complex of the Russian Armed Forces. They visited the main temple of the Armed Forces, strolled around the grounds, and stopped at the museum, where they picked up audio guides. The experience would have been interesting even without them, as the exhibition is superbly organized—everything is very modern. The ladies ended up staying there for two hours. Incidentally, there are stands near the museum serving various dishes, including shashlik, pancakes, and pelmeni. Read more...

Our excursion guests, a beautiful young couple named Yulia and Alexander, were married at the Cathedral of Christ the Savior and have been married for over ten years. Their son, Misha, is five. They decided to start their Moscow sightseeing day with a private boat ride on a small six-seater boat. They departed from Nagatinsky Zaton, where there's a beautiful metro station decorated with mosaic images of fish. Each fish contains an Easter egg—a unique feature that stands out from the crowd of mosaic cubes. For example, one of the fish contains a shell containing a pearl. Read more...

The group was small, consisting of the parents of the bride and groom and one other relative. Read more...

On a beautiful June day, we gave a family abroad a private tour of the heart of Moscow. The Russian mother, German father, and their little daughter thoroughly enjoyed exploring the city's sights under the attentive guidance of our guide. In Germany, the family lives in a small village with only a few houses. The parents once owned a farm, but now only a few residents remain. Despite this, the guests were welcoming, inquisitive, and open to learning about Moscow's culture, architecture, and history. Read more...

A group of six friends took a tour of "The Master and Margarita." Among them were a mother and a small child, aged between 10 and 12, who abandoned the group mid-tour due to heavy rain. Everyone else thoroughly enjoyed the walk. Tour guide Anastasia led the group to the building where Bulgakov lived. There, the group enthusiastically took photos near the graffiti-covered walls. One participant was particularly enthusiastic about capturing all the picturesque views along the route. When the rain intensified, the group headed to a coffee shop near Patriarch's Ponds, where they enjoyed tea. Read more...

The group traveled from the Kemerovo Region to visit their daughter and grandchildren who live on Nikolina Gora in the Moscow region. This area is home to a writers' village. Sergei Mikhalkov (the author of the national anthem and father of Nikita Sergeyevich) once had a dacha here. The couple said they have three grandchildren, one of whom had an equestrian competition planned the day before, which significantly delayed their arrival. The elderly couple hadn't been to Moscow for over 40 years and asked our guide for a private tour of the city's sights. 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.
