Description
Type: Single-day activity
Duration: 3 hours
* I invite you to take a walk... on the Red Square! Muscovites will be surprised: It is also the most famous place in the city, visited by everyone without exception. But I really want to surprise you by revealing some secrets that not every resident of the capital knows about. In particular, what is the "donkey march" and who took part in it? Why were there 17 divisions on the first clock on the Spasskaya Tower and when the Kremlin was an island? Who are the "scooters", what did the aircar look like, and how does this relate to the necropolis at the Kremlin Wall?
In the second half of the tour, we will visit one of the greatest monuments of Russian church architecture — the Cathedral of the Intercession of the Blessed Virgin Mary, on the Moat, better known as the "St. Basil's Cathedral". Built during the reign of Ivan the Terrible, the Cathedral never ceases to amaze with its incredible beauty and unique architecture. We will spend a whole hour and a half in the Cathedral, visit its churches, the exposition in the basement and in the sacristy of the Cathedral. We will learn about the secrets of its construction and decorative decoration, about its original paintings, about the precious shrines stored in its walls.

Собираетесь в Москву, но не любите банальные групповые туры? Или вы местный житель, и к вам приехали друзья или деловые партнеры? А может, вам самим хотелось бы отправиться на экскурсию по городу и увидеть его с непарадной стороны — таким, каким его знают и любят москвичи?
Готова вам помочь. Я аккредитованный экскурсовод (русский язык) и гид-переводчик (английский язык), провела более 1500 пешеходных, автобусных и теплоходных экскурсий по столице — для тех, кому небезразлична Москва. Среди моих клиентов — офисные работники, родители с детьми, компании друзей и, конечно русские и иностранные гости нашего города.
По первому образованию я музыкант, и у меня, в числе прочих, есть экскурсии на тему искусства и музыки.
