Moscow Tours
Walking Tours
Private guides can be hired through the major hotels. There are always individuals in the Red Square/Kremlin area, who will offer to act as a guide for a fee - visitors should negotiate this before setting off. Capital Travel (tel: (495) 232 2442; www.capitaltours.ru) offers various Moscow tours, including three-hour tours of the Kremlin museums, cathedrals and the Patriarch's Palace.
Bus Tours
As well as walking tours of the Kremlin, Capital Travel (tel: (495) 232 2442; www.capitaltours.ru) offers bus tours of the famous Moscow sights, including the Kremlin, Tverskaya, Christ the Saviour Cathedral, Victory Park and the Bolshoi. Bus tours can also be readily arranged through hotels and incoming tour operators, including Astravel (tel: (495) 781 2700; www.astravel.ru).
Boat Tours
One of the more pleasant ways to see the city is to take a boat trip on the Moskva River. Boats run by the Capital Shipping Company (tel: (495) 225 6070; www.cck-ship.ru in Russian) leave half hourly from a number of landing points in the city centre and the journey lasts up to 90 minutes, depending where you board. Good starting points are Kievskaya, near the Metro station, the Radisson Slavjanskya Hotel and the Borodinsky Bridge (the city's oldest, built in 1912). Tickets can be booked through hotels or from the boat company. For longer river cruises, including the trip to St Petersburg, contact Visit Russia (tel: (495) 626 0391; www.visitrussia.com).
