Coming to Moscow? Want to make the most of your time here?
The very first thing you need to know about Moscow is that it's a huge city! Exploring it on your own without a private guide can be a challenge, unlike in other world capitals. Don’t expect tourist-friendly infrastructure or widespread English-speaking locals – that’s simply not the case here. Nevertheless, Moscow is a fantastic destination with many wonderful and exciting things to offer, even if they’re not as obvious or widely advertised as in other major cities. That’s why you will certainly need a guide to take you to the most fascinating spots and offer helpful insights on how to get around.
My name is Maria, and I offer a wide range of tours designed to cater to different types of visitors. We can start with a classic sightseeing tour, covering iconic locations like Red Square, the Novodevichy Monastery, and other significant historic landmarks. If you’re passionate about art and culture, Moscow has several large museums dedicated to classic art, along with many modern galleries for you to explore. Not to mention the numerous shopping spots, from luxury boutiques to hidden local gems, where you can find unique and rare items.
When it comes to nightlife, Moscow never sleeps! Whether you’re into trendy bars, vibrant clubs, or quiet spots for a drink, there’s something for everyone.
Visiting Moscow during the summer is a special treat – the city comes alive with street performances, outdoor events, and bustling public spaces. However, there are many hidden gems and special places that you might miss or find difficult to locate on your own, especially since most locals don’t speak much English. This is where I come in! As a professional guide, I can help you navigate Moscow, and you’ll discover how beautiful, diverse, and fascinating this immense city can be when you see it from the right perspective.
Let me help you make your Moscow experience unforgettable!

This was a very fun tour and a window onto-some little-seen places in the Chistie Prudi area. I learned a lot from Maria, who told us, for example, why the Chistie Prudi were named "The Clean Ponds"-it's a pretty strange and interesting story! And gave us other interesting, bizarre, and charming tidbits on Moscow and its inhabitants. We saw some lovely sidestreets and ancient houses that I would have not wandered to on my own, as well as taking a sidetrip to see a dovecote with some extraordinary birds in a quiet courtyard-- definitely a well-kept secret! I enjoyed the stories that Maria interspersed as well as her combination of Russian and English tour-guiding, which was instructive and fun for those of us foreigners learning Russian. Atmospheric and interesting tour, charming and interesting tour guide! And she also brought tea and snacks for us :).
