Organizing a tour for the opening of a UNIQLO store on Arbat

Task. Develop a mini tour of Novy Arbat next to the new UNIQLO store for fashion journalists.

5 rounds of 20 minutes, 5 people each, with an interval of 2 hours. 

Each tour should be filled with interesting information about architecture, fashion and culture.  

Solution. We developed a script:

  1. Meeting point "Prague". The restaurant is like Arbat in miniature: a favorite meeting place for the elite of the Silver Age 1900-10s; Model canteen of Mosselprom 1920s; closed dining room for NKVD employees 1930-50s; exemplary restaurant of the Union 1960-80s; Telman Ismailov's farm 1990 - 2000... Searches for a new
    life and grandiose plans: the largest food court in Moscow. And around the corner
    UNIQLO.
  2. Invitation to a tour for the opening of a UNIQLO store on Arbat Movement along the old Arbat. The meaning of the name + a brief history of the area and the characteristics of street retail in pre-revolutionary Moscow.
  3. The first pedestrian street in the country. Arbat as a brand. How the street has changed over 30
    years of its pedestrian existence.
  4. Eclectic architecture of Arbat. Classic, modern, constructivism and gothic,
    adjacent to each other.
  5. A. Losev's house on Arbat. The last idealist in the country of materialists. Fashionable
    philosopher of the 20th century + Vakhtangov Fashion Theater. The eccentric princess Turandot
    as a symbol and talisman of all Vakhtangov residents.
  6. A. Scriabin's house in Bolshoy Nikolopeskovsky Lane. Modernist composer
    founder of color music, pedantic esthete, style icon of the Silver Age +
    The house of the poet K. Balmont is a knight of muses / musketeer of style.
  7. The arch of the book house is a portal to the 20th century and modernist modernity. New
    Arbat as a symbol of the Thaw. Coffee mania.
  8. Coffee break
  9. The birth of an avenue from idea to implementation. Government highway.
  10. Moscow Broadway. The most modern and fashionable street of the Union. Street fashion in the Soviet style.
  11. "Kalina Street" - a new avenue favored by youth subcultures Soviet Union. Hipsters, hippies and the first rockers on Novy Arbat. Assemblage points: "Broom" and "October".
  12. Festival traditions of New Arbat. Parade procession for the anniversary of Moscow 850, St. Patrick's Day.
  13. Reboot of Arbat in 2016 - the return of Broadway.
  14. The new center of attraction on Novy Arbat is the UNIQLO store (the first Moscow store of the legendary brand in the street retail format)

The customer approved the script. Excursion tours were carried out (at the highest level - the customer strengthened the group with two beautiful girls-hostesses). The customer and guests are happy, Uniklo is opened beautifully and stylishly.

By the way, we have a walking tour of Arbat for two and a half hours.

    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.

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

  13. Excursions with the travel agency "Radius" are always positive emotions for you, if you have chosen this agency. On your next visit, you planned an excursion to Zamoskvorechye. This is not the first time we have met with the guide Anton. We definitely recommend him to all our friends. The tour is educational, not overloaded with dates, the information is voluminous, but easy to perceive, because it is presented not like in a history textbook, dryly and academically, but in a light narrative manner. Thank you for this approach. We will contact the Radius bureau more than once on our next visit to Moscow.

  16. Studied together with relatives and Radius The soul of Moscow on my birthday. Everyone enjoyed the walk immensely! Anton told us many interesting facts about the capital and its history, led us into such spiritual depths that no one present suspected. Although among us there were mainly those who either from birth or have been living in Moscow for a very long time and walk around it a lot. It was educational, soulful and unforgettable 🙂

    Overall, this wasn’t the first time I’ve walked around Moscow with Anton, and each time it was a real adventure!

  17. Anastasia, good afternoon!
    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«

  18. Good day to all! I would like to share my impressions of the excursion "Journey to Christmas". Our guide was Anastasia. So! Everything was just magical: a slight frost of -4, snow, numerous Christmas trees, decorations, lights, garlands and all this to the interesting educational story of Anastasia. Despite the fact that we knew something about the New Year, there was a lot that was new, unexpected and interesting. And all this to the music of Tchaikovsky. In general, we are delighted. Thank you for the New Year mood you gave us. It is priceless!!!! Thank you!

  22. On my birthday, I went on an excursion with my friends. "Sinister Places". Excellent entertainment for a company. Professional guide Anton - special thanks to him for an interesting story and route. All recommended places and drinks were a hit with everyone. Lots of interesting, curious and funny facts. Thanks to this agency and of course to the tour guide Anton.
    Vyacheslav December 9, 2024
  23. The excursion is unusual, unconventional, I really liked it. The involvement of a girl in the role of Nina from "The Seagull" harmoniously fit into the narrative. I recommend developing in this direction. "Apartment 44" came in handy exactly at the moment when it was most needed. My wife is very pleased with both the excursion and the painting.

    Note: Review of the excursion-performance, which the guide Alexander specially developed as part of the order "Dream Tour".
    Alexei October 29, 2024
  24. We were on the excursion "Sinful Places", our group was small, three people, one of whom had a birthday, which we told the guide Alexander, and the format of the excursion turned into a real holiday! In addition to the walk and very interesting facts on the topic of the excursion, we went to incredibly creative establishments with delicious drinks and unusual serving, a cheerful contingent and a cool unusual interior, our guide Sasha took into account all our little wishes, conducted the excursion very cheerfully and sincerely! Thank you very much for a wonderful holiday! Very cool, we are delighted!

  25. This is the second time I've been walking and wandering around Moscow with the private excursion bureau Radius. The founder, native Muscovite Anton Latynin, a theater and art critic, leads the excursions himself and out of love.

    "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.

Advantages of individual excursions over group ones

  • You choose a time that is convenient for you and are not obliged to arrive early.
  • The guide is focused only on you, answering all your questions.
  • Less strain on your hearing as the guide is right next to you and speaks only to you.
  • You hear everything the tour guide says.
  • A personal guide remembers you, and you remember him. Such moments remain in memory.
  • Without unnecessary noise and inappropriate jokes from other participants.
  • The opportunity to discuss personal impressions and emotions with the guide during the process.
  • The guide doesn't make stops at points of sale (at least we certainly don't).
  • Possibility of adapting the route to your preferences and interests.
  • No one is in a hurry. Take a good look at the sights - they won't leave without you.
  • Possibility to visit places closed to large groups.
  • Opportunity to gain insight or exclusive information.
  • Take a break when needed - to rest or take photos.
  • At individual excursion you dive deeper.
  • The excursion can be either educational or easy, depending on your wishes.
  • An atmosphere of tranquility and privacy.
  • Your photos will not be crowded with other participants.
  • Absence of outside pressure.
  • We pay special attention to the places that interest you.

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 one is a journey through the city's secrets with a personal guide. Don't miss the opportunity to organize press tour for journalists in the form of an excursion to the opening of a store on Arbat or tours for journalists in your company's area. Our company offers a full tour service, including tours and photos from the tours, so that your moments remain in memory.

The excursion bureau "Radius" offers a variety of excursion services in Moscow, including cultural and historical and sightseeing programs in Russian and foreign languages. We organize excursions for journalists, including press tours of the capital's districts, and also offer unique individual routes that are suitable for both local residents and guests of the capital.

Our guides provide top-notch tour support, offering lively speech without cliches. We work with corporate clients, providing examples of tours with companies such as Yandex and Faberlic. For journalists, we offer a press tour in the form of a tour of the opening of a store on Arbat, which will be an excellent opportunity to get acquainted with the cultural and commercial aspects of the city.

You can choose walking tours or car trips, and also use gift certificates for excursions around Moscow, which will be an original gift for your loved ones. Stylish and intelligent guides are ready to conduct excursions in English, German, Spanish and Hebrew.
