We were a group of five. Natalie, our guide walked us in Kremlin and took us to Metro stations. Her hospitality was genuine and warm and she was very knowledgeable with excellent English. By sharing the experiences of her friends and family she enables us to understand relevant history and today's Russian life. Outstanding!

We used the company for few days during our July 2016 trip to Moscow and the guides were very knowledgeable, professional and nice. We had a 5 people group that included 2 kids and a grandmother and all of us enjoyed it!
Anna from the tour company was very quick to respond and helped to create the best itinerary possible. If you want to add destinations / attractions they are very flexible.
We had the following tours (packed schdule but fulfilling)
First day - MOSCOW MUST-SEE'S
Second day - Armoury Chamber and the Diamond Fund (self guided) and after we took the tour company for Kremlin Grounds tour, lunch and finished with the subway tour
Third day - Sergiev Posad Tour and go self guided in the evening to a folk dancing and see the Kremlin at night (highly recommended)
Forth day - MOSCOW DRIVING TOUR. The order of the trips was perfect to learn Moscow and experience it from different angels.
Highly recommended !!
