Very knowledgeable guide

Our guide was extremely knowledgeable and we learned a great deal about the history and interesting facts and anecdates relating to the Metro stations. I am sorry but I can't remember his name.... the only thing that could be improved would be to give us more time to take pictures. I felt the tour was too rushed and I often found myself walking fast to catch up after stopping to take photos. Also, we were the only two in the tour as others didn't show up, which turned out to be great - but I think it's better to use a headset so people can hear the guide over the noise. Overall, I'm glad I reserved the tour!

Amazing historic tour!

This was like going back in time with a guide. We got to visit several of moscows major stations and find out about the fascinating history and detail behind each station. I highly recommend.

Must must must

I feel very bad I forgot the guides name... I thinks it was Andre.... he seemed like a very fun guy.... he really knows his stuff... extremely patient.... and a good sense of humour.... it’s because of him I understood the metro system so well .... and have used it for my entire trip.... I recommend everyone to go for this trip hosted by Moscow me...

A Pleasurable Tour

My Husband and I booked a tour with Ksenia last summer to see the Metro in Moscow. We had a wonderful time. Ksenia was a well of information and very knowledgeable about the history. She was very sweet and friendly answering all our questions and taking her time in showing us around. I highly recommend the tour with Ksenia.

Perfect Tour

Ksenia led a group of 4 of us on a fascinating and fun tour of the Moscow metro. Her English is great and her knowledge fund is outstanding! She knows how to make a tour interesting as we simultaneously shared laughs and insight into a local's perspective on this beautiful and unique city. She also gave us great food and drink recommendations, and was a blast to be around. I have been on all types of tours in many different countries, and having Ksenia as a tourguide was definitely memorable! Enjoy!

Best way to learn about Moscow

Ksenia took us on a private tour of the Moscow Metro and completely opened my mind on this amazing city and the country's history. The tour was so good that a year later we are using Ksenia's services again! In a couple of hours you get a comprehensive overview of Russia, insight into her people and lots of fascinating stories to tell friends about after the tour.
