Moscow Add-on
This 2 night stay in Moscow can be added to the start or end of any of our Trans-Siberian itineraries allowing you longer to explore Russia's rejuvinated capital - Moscow.

Moscow conjures up such vivid contrasts, as whilst retaing an ambience heavy with history, it also eporomises fast-moving, go-getting, designer-clad 'New Russia'. There is a long list of 'must-sees; such as admiring the striking beauty of Red Square, (framed by St. Basil's Cathedral), the State Department Store (GUM) packed with designer shops or the red brick Kremlin and Lenin's Tomb. As well as visiting Bohemian Old Arbat and the ever impressive Pushkin Museum, we recommend including a few lesser-known museums like the Russian Harmonica Museum and the Russian Vodka Museum.
