Was so impressed by the Kremlin - seeing the churches (got to go into 2 of them). Plus seeing the building where Putin comes to work everyday. Read Less

This tour was not a walking tour although I did get off the bus for pictures and some walking around. I enjoyed seeing the Russian people doing everyday things. Read Less

The Kremlin in a "fortress." There were so many things to see. There was a bell that might have been modeled on the Liberty Bell in Philadelphia. Part of it was not only cracked but removed. The building where government functions are conducted was surprising to me. It seemed to have been a palace at one time. Read Less

Saw those pictures in the newspapers for real. What a treat. Nighttime was just beautiful Read Less

Although it was very chilly, seeing Moscow from the water was a real treat. Most of the building were outlined in white lights. Very enjoyable. Read Less

Rode the metro - lots of walking - Alexander Gardens - so much to see! Read Less

The Treasury is very interesting - especially the wardrobes and carriages!!! Read Less

Lots of walking that day - St. Basel's Cathedral is beautiful. Wish we could have stayed longer in the Square, but they were having a Military Tattoo at the time. Also wished we had more time in the GUM Department Store. Read Less

The lights at night were beautiful - especially overlooking the soccer stadium - got a special treat at the end.....Red October chocolate! Read Less

City Tour was very strenous. The city center is very cosmopolitan. Read Less

The Kremlin is huge. Very interesting to see the home of the Russian government and where Putin has his office. Read Less

Very strenuous tour of Red Square and the City Center. 4 mile hike up and down hills and stairs Read Less

Saw it on our own and as cruise excursion; great to visit an historic place; Saint Basil's is awesome; GUM is impressive; Lenin's tomb is surprisingly suppressed. Read Less

As we had seen Red Square and the Kremlin on our own a couple days earlier, we used some of the cruise excursion time to tour the State Historical Museum. It includes artifacts from dinosaur bones to carriages of the czars. All placards are in Russian so unless you know the language, it's hard to get a full appreciation. Still a good visit. We also visited the War Museum which is now showing an exhibit of the Great Patriotic War, what Russians call the War of 1812: the attack by Napoleon. It was splendidly done! Read Less

Had no idea how huge Moscow is. Wonderful architecture, beautiful city and our guide was excellent. Read Less

Exceptional; easy to get around on the Metro. Read Less

We all have traffic jams, people deal with them with little evidence of road rage Read Less

We toured Moscow on our own. We had a couple of days at the start of the trip to explore Moscow on our own using guidebooks we brought with us. Read Less

We visited the Metro Stations on our own, during our free time. It is a truly stunning experience. The architecture underground is remarkable and should not be missed. Simply get an Metro map, buy a ticket, and away you go. Read Less

Major traffic which made for a long drive to embarkation site Read Less

Very interesting but again: not enough time to see more (certainly not all!) in Armory Museum or Red Square, never mind shop for anything! Read Less

Saw so much in such a short time with great narrative. Local Guide was anti-Putin and ship guide pointed out how nice it was that he could express himself honestly. This was a highlight, and our ship guide handled it so diplomatically. Sasha is the best. Read Less

Great tour though we did the Armory and Diamond Fund on our own the day before. Sunny and cold most of the time. We dressed appropriately and loved it ...even being from South Florida. Read Less

Small group. Great tour guide from ship with time on our own. Time of year meant no crowds. Got to see the setting sun behind St Basil's. Read Less

Incredible art collection Read Less
