Soviet Moscow Sightseeing Tour - Itinerary


The tour, after a pick up from your hotel in the city, takes you to

Tverskaya Street: The street houses original multi-storey administrative and apartment buildings, which were constructed during the rule of Stalin. Apart from the architectural and historic sights, there are many exhibition halls, theatres and all kinds of shops and cafes on the street.

Central Park of Culture and Relaxation (Gorky Park): Built by the Muscovites with their own hands in 1928, the Central Park of Culture and Relaxation is one of the most popular leisure areas for both locals and tourists.

The district of the VDNKh Metro Station: Stroll through the district and it will seem that you have walked into a Stalinist Disney World. Modern constructions stand peacefully side by side with remarkable monuments of the past. The indissoluble unity of the national economy is symbolized by the world-renowned sculpture of V. Mukhina, “The Worker and the Collective-Farm Women”. The 24-metre high figures, carrying hammers and sickles, portray the romance, enthusiasm and powerful impulse of the first Soviet five-year plans.

At the end of the tour, you will be returned to your hotel.
