about provider

My 9-year-old daughter and I took the 'Moscow Kaleidoscope' tour, and we were very pleased. The purpose of the trip was to show my daughter Moscow as the capital, to explore its sights, history, and get a sense of life in the city. All our goals were met. Many thanks to the guides and tour organizers—everything was well-organized, and they chose really interesting places to visit. The hotel’s breakfast buffet was fantastic!
