Moscow sightseeing tour

Overview

Meeting with tour guide at hotel lobby. Departure for the excursion.

A sightseeing tour is a fantastic immersion in the atmosphere of legends and traditions of ancient Moscow! You will find yourself in a fortified city of the 15th century located on 7 hills and guess its landscape in the ring layout of a modern city. You will see patterned palaces and ancient temples and learn how Moscow became the center of the ancient Russian state. You will meet the monuments to the great Russian princes - Vladimir the Red Sun baptized Rus, who founded Moscow Yuri Dolgoruky, who defeated Dmitry Donskoy over the Golden Horde army - and hear their stories. Take a ride along the Boulevard and Garden Ring, where once the medieval fortress walls rose and transported to the unknown "country of boyars and merchants." Admire the swan pond at the white stone walls of the most beautiful Novodevichy Convent and discover the secrets of the life and death of the monastery prisoners - former royal wives, daughters and daughters-in-law. Take a look at the golden domes of the Cathedral of Christ the Savior and go to the Patriarchal bridge. Once in Kitay Gorod, you will understand how Russian writing, typography and the stock exchange were born. And finally, you will enjoy wonderful views of the main sights of the capital: the grandiose, perhaps one of the most beautiful Red Squares in the world, the “seventh wonder of the world” St. Basil’s Cathedral with its semiprecious onion domes and the magnificent towers of the ancient Kremlin.
