One foggy Moscow evening, when the wind whispered in the alleys of Kitai-gorod like an ancient guide who had shared his secrets with the world, Fyodor Dostoevsky, walking thoughtfully along the cobblestones, met a figure hidden in the semi-darkness. This stranger seemed to be the embodiment of all those souls that Dostoevsky wrote about - contradictory, like life itself.
The sky hung heavy as lead, and raindrops flowed like tears down the stone faces of the houses. At that moment, Dostoevsky, carried away by the play of shadows and light, heard the stranger speak in French. In the language, so melodic and refined, there sounded something naked, as if hidden behind beautiful words. Dostoevsky, an expert on human nature, immediately sensed something was wrong.
The alleys of Kitai-gorod, with their ancient walls and mysterious gateways, became the stage for an unusual conversation. Like characters from a novel, they exchanged remarks, each of which was filled with ambiguity and hidden meaning. Only rare passers-by, like ghosts of the past, ran past, not noticing the drama unfolding in this corner of Moscow.
Dostoevsky, sensing some danger in the stranger, remembered his heroes, who always stood on the edge of good and evil. He decided to expose his interlocutor using the language of art. Like an experienced detective, the writer began to talk about French novels and philosophy, leading the conversation to topics that could reveal the true intentions of the stranger.
At that moment, when it seemed that the words were about to reveal the truth, the rain intensified, and the booming sound of footsteps in puddles drowned out the last phrases. The stranger, as if dissolving into the night, disappeared, leaving Dostoevsky alone with his thoughts about the nature of the human soul.
The story that happened in the alleys of Kitai-gorod remained a mystery, like many things in life. But for Dostoevsky, it was another encounter with something that inspires and frightens at the same time - with the abyss that a person carries within himself.

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

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«
I will definitely recommend this company to my friends and we will use its services ourselves.
Excellent organization of excursions, all wishes were taken into account, punctuality at the highest level
Note: Review of the excursion-performance, which the guide Alexander specially developed as part of the order "Dream Tour".
"Theater capital" - an author's route through the places of Meyerhold, Stanislavsky, Nemirovich-Danchenko, Tairov (undeservedly forgotten, it was he who created the current Pushkin Theatre on Tverskoy Boulevard).
Two and a half hours of fascinating stories and urban theatre legends. I'll tell you one:
The great composer Sergei Prokofiev lived in Kamergersky Lane. And he managed to die on the same day as Stalin. There was a terrible crush in Moscow, everything was blocked off, the entire capital wanted to say goodbye to the leader. So, to see Prokofiev off, the coffin was carried out from Kamergersky Lane on the roofs. I can vividly imagine this picture.
