9 Best Travel-Size Hair Tools for Flawless Looks on the Go

By Leah Prinzivalli and Jennifer Hussein

We love our tried-and-true hot tools , but some of our clunkier devices are far from travel-friendly . That's where the best travel-size hair tools come in to save our vacation looks. Whether you're traveling to a frizz-inducing tropical climate or attending a destination wedding, hair is most likely the biggest part of your beauty routine that needs serious adaptation on the road — and, of course, wanderlusters forget about far too often.

Doing your hair on vacation doesn't have to be complicated. Of course, you can always rock the natural look flawlessly, but if you'd rather blowout, curl, or straighten your strands during your vacay, we've compiled a list of the mini hair styling tools that'll perform just as well as your full-size favorites, even when you're miles (and maybe even an ocean or two) away from home. These tools won't take up too much room whether you're checking a bag or simply traveling with a carry-on and will ensure you have a vacation entirely filled with effortlessly gorgeous styles.

Jet-setting soon? Don't forget to pack one of these TSA-friendly travel stylers. Below, check out the best compact hairstyling tools Allure editors and pro hairstylists alike adore — just make sure to pack a bottle of heat protectant , too.

T3 Afar Travel Hair Dryer

Ulta Beauty

The T3 Afar Travel Hair Dryer looks like the Rolls Royce of compact hair dryers, but this nifty little blowdryer offers more than just shelfie-worthy looks. It's one of the most pro-recommended products on this list for its luxurious design that offers multiple heat and speed settings. "The T3 Afar is by far my favorite dryer for travels," says New York City-based hairstylist and colorist Paul Labrecque .

BabylissPRO

BaBylissPro Mini Straightening Iron

If you're all about pin-straight styles, Brandie Devillier , a Texas-based hairstylist, says you need to add the BaBylissPro Mini Straightening Iron to your vacation hair-care routine. "This flatiron travels with me everywhere I go," she says.

This miniature flatiron features half-inch titanium plates that glide through a wide range of hair types with ease. This dual-voltage device's plates heat up to 450 degrees Fahrenheit and feature a beveled-edge design for versatile styling. It also comes with a heat-resistant carrying pouch to prevent any items in your carry-on from being seared.

Kitsch Ceramic Rollers

Instead of packing a large curling wand, Devillier suggests opting for a travel-friendly eight-pack of Kitsch's Ceramic Rollers. "When I want big, fluffy hair but don't have time for a curling iron, I'll blow out my hair and pop these ceramic rollers right in," she says, adding that they work best on hot hair. "As they cool down, your hair will cool and form into the shape of the roller."

GHD Flight Travel Dryer

Saks Fifth Avenue

Devillier is also a major fan of the GHD Flight Travel Dryer for its compact size that fits into any of her carry-ons and mighty hair-drying power. "It's also lightweight and has the amazing GHD technology of cooling down when too close to the hair," she says.

Ceremonia Diffuser de Rizos

No matter which blow dryer you decide to pack (or even if you use the hotel's option), Allure deputy digital editor Kara McGrath says the Ceremonia Diffuser de Rizos will be a perfect fit. She says curly hair types should pack this diffuser in their go-bags for its universal fit and collapsible design. It literally blew our editors away, much so that it nabbed an Allure Best of Beauty Award in 2022.

Drybar Baby Buttercup Mini Blow Dryer

Sometimes, life takes us to a place that doesn't have a Drybar. Thankfully, the blowout pros have an at-home line to help us fake it. The Drybar Baby Buttercup Mini Blow Dryer folds up into its own travel bag and is designed with international voltage compatibility.

Conair Flirty Flat Iron

The mini Conair Flirty Flat Iron is so purse-friendly that you can easily pack it in a tote bag or backpack. Since this little gadget features ceramic plates that heat up to 356 degrees Fahrenheit, the phrase "tiny but mighty" truly applies to this hair straightener.

Kristin Ess

Kristin Ess Defining and Detailing Mini Flat Iron

Honey, Kristin Ess shrunk the flat iron. This mini version of the Defining and Detailing Mini Flat Iron is great for smoothing short hair, bangs, detailing, and, of course, last-minute travel styling. The tool has a single heat setting of 380 degrees Fahrenheit, features titanium, corrosion-resistant plating, and can even be used internationally.

Moroccanoil

Moroccanoil Ionic Ceramic Thermal Brush (55mm)

Bluemercury

Now that you've packed your teeny curling iron, foldable blow dryer, and curling iron, you need a hair brush that can withstand heat. The Moroccanoil Ionic Ceramic Thermal Brush features a 55-millimeter barrel that's designed with ceramic technology to distribute heat evenly and smooth frizz and flyaways.

The Best Travel Hair Products for Every Type of Hair Texture

When you’re traveling, you want to make the most of every minute—and ideally not spend two hours fussing over your hair. But when it comes to summer vacations , the sun, saltwater, harsh winds, humidity and drastic changes in temperature can all play a role in making our hair behave unpredictably. And let’s face it, those complimentary bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your hotel room don't suit everyone’s hair needs.

I have super curly hair and always resort to getting a protective style like braids so I don’t have to worry about it on the road, but I’m tired of doing braids every time I take a trip, and would much prefer to wear my curls out and not suffer the next day consequences of tangled, dry locks. Luckily, a slew of brands have come to the rescue with everything from anti-humidity gels to dry shampoos with UV filters that protect your hair from the sun—all in TSA-friendly sizes. I called on my fellow Traveler staffers to help test the few dozen products that crossed my desk—here are our favorites travel hair products to pack for your next trip.

For straight, thin hair that needs a pick me up

Amika Silken Up Dry Conditioner

Dry conditioner hasn't gotten as much hype as dry shampoo, but Silken Up Dry conditioner has proved its worth. Vegan and cruelty-free, this formula includes Provitamin B5 which restores hair’s resilience and reduces split ends, plus an anti-static spray that softens and smooths hair between washes.“I have straight, super fine hair, but this conditioner gave it some volume and made my hair look fresh from the cut I had two days before,” says photo editor Meg Reinhardt. “It also left my hair feeling soft and clean without the grit that some dry shampoos have.”

Ouai Hair Oil

Oil is an essential item for keeping hair moisturized, and this multitasking one from Ouai really gets the job done. Ingredients include African galangal root extract, which protects hair from color degradation caused by UV exposure, smooths frizz, and seals split ends with a high gloss finish. Bonus: it doubles as a hydrating overnight mask, too.

Oribe Gold Lust Repair Shampoo & Conditioner

This shampoo and conditioner set combines century old healing oils like cypress, argan, and maracuja to rejuvenate hair and give it a youthful and healthy appearance. It’s formulated for all hair types, but especially hair that's been damaged from styling and processing over time. “My hair is dyed and often feels dry and brittle at times. I loved the conditioning properties of both the shampoo and conditioner—my hair felt noticeably softer after the first use,” says articles director Stephanie Wu. “The products are light enough to be used daily as well, and didn't make my hair feel heavy afterward.”

Community editor Megan Spurrell gave it a test drive on a recent vacation: “This shampoo/conditioner duo was great, and helped keep my hair soft and minimally frizzy, even in the humidity of Belize ."

Living Proof Perfect Hair Day Bodybuilder Hair Spray

Hairspray can be tricky and sometimes leaves your hair feeling stiff. This one from Living Proof comes with a customizable nozzle that lets you adjust the particle size and spray rate, and the formula contains a blend of polymers that help create body and softness, allowing the hair to still feel light and moveable. “On days when I just need a little extra oomph, a couple spritzes of this will do," says associate editor Meredith Carey. "While on nights when I want to go all out with curls or volume, I can turn the power-up. It’s an all-in-one bottle."

For loose curls that don't agree with humidity

Ouai Anti-Frizz Sheets

These anti-frizz sheets are game changers for curly hair that tends to get frizzy in humid weather. A few swipes from the roots to the ends leaves the hair shiny, smooth and free from flyaways. Ingredients include coconut oil and shea butter, and it's made of eco-friendly hemp paper. “My hair was a mess after a recent flight and I was headed straight into several meetings, with no time to stop and clean up. These sheets took the edge off, if you will, made some of my impossible flyaways tame down, and helped revitalize my red-eye ragged curls,” says Paulie Dibner, Traveler's director of operations.

Ouidad Advanced Climate Control Gel

Humidity has been a longtime foe for those with curly hair, but this climate control heat and humidity gel changes everything. The formula includes a protein from silk that helps to keep the hair cuticle moisturized and sealed, and a UV filter that helps protect against sun damage. “I normally dislike hair gel. I don't like to feel like I have the product in my hair. This gel actually didn’t leave any kind of residue and really tamed frizz without leaving my hair looking oily” says photo contributor Natalie Leonard.

Buy Now: Ouidad Advanced Climate Control Gel (2.5 oz), $10 at ouidad.com

Living Proof Frizz Instant De-Frizzer

Smooth, soft and shiny curly hair can be achieved with this instant de-frizzer. It works as a dry conditioning spray that tames over 90 percent of frizz, refreshes dull hair in-between shampoo, and contains a special five-oil blend that mimics natural oils found in healthy hair. “It feels light and leaves zero residue in the hair. It didn’t make my hair feel sticky, and solved all of my frizz problems,” says Leonard.

Buy Now: Living Proof Frizz Instant De-Frizzer (2.8 oz), $15 at sephora.com

For tight curls that are all about bounce

Shea Moisture Curl Enhancing Smoothie Styler

This coconut and hibiscus curl enhancing smoothie provides great moisture and definition to tight curls. It’s an all-natural styling cream formulated with neem oil and silk protein which helps protect hair against breakage, keeping curls moisturized and super soft. On days when you want to throw your hair up into a quick ponytail, it adds definition and bounce.

Head & Shoulders Root Rejuvenating Pre-Wash Masks

Made from a lightweight formula that includes tea tree extract to invigorate roots and restore the scalp, this pre-wash mask does a great job at getting all the product residue out of your hair at the end of the day—an essential for coily hair, which tends to suffer from more build up at the roots. Even better, the masks come in carry-on-friendly packaging that takes up no space, and can be packed individually depending on how many washes you think your hair will need throughout a trip.

Heatless curlers make hair styling easier while traveling so you can leave the hot tools at home.

Travel + Leisure/Anna Mejorada

Curling irons are great for creating long-lasting hair styles, but hot tools are notoriously bad for your strands . Heatless curlers provide a damage-free alternative that is especially well-suited for travel. Eliminating the need for voltage adapters and plug converters on international excursions, heatless curlers also expend less weight and real estate in your luggage. Since heatless curlers take just minutes to apply and can be worn overnight, they help you spend less time in front of the bathroom mirror and more time soaking in every moment of your vacation.

We put 23 heatless curlers to the test over the course of two weeks, testing each product at least two or three times, paying careful attention to how it performed in the following categories: ease of use, comfort (including during overnight use), curling ability, hair look and feel, and durability. These are the seven heatless curlers that are worth the space in your luggage.

Best Overall

Silke london silk heatless curler.

Silke London

The non-damaging silk roller is comfortable for overnight use.

The carrying case is a bit bulky.

In terms of fabrics that’ll come in contact with your hair or skin, silk is an exceptional choice. Not to be confused with satin (which can be produced from silk or other fibers), silk won’t draw moisture from your hair like other fabrics can. It also helps reduce creasing. That’s why this roller set crafted from 100 percent pure mulberry silk tops our list. The high-quality materials help produce bouncy, voluminous waves that look shiny and natural. 

In our tests, we found that this product was very comfortable to sleep in — even for a side sleeper. Though this particular team member's naturally straight hair migrated down the rod just a bit overnight, it mostly stayed in place and produced a curly hairstyle that began approximately mid-way down the hair shaft and lasted all day. We found this product to be user-friendly (just as simple as braiding your hair), even for a heatless curler beginner. 

The rod is one-size-fits-most and can be used on all hair types. For best results, we recommend starting with slightly damp hair and leaving the curling rod in place until your hair completely dries (or overnight). Though you can use the curler without any additional hair products, a little mousse, curl cream, or setting spray can increase the longevity of your curls.

Best Overall, Runner-up

Lilysilk silk curling headband set.

The 43-inch rod is great for people with long or thick hair. 

It would be nice if it included a claw clip to secure hair.

This 100 percent silk-lined curling rod looks as gorgeous as the bouncy curls it produces. Available in three shades and decorated with dainty pearls at the tips, this heatless curling set stood out in our tests for its ability to create bouncy, frizz-free waves with minimal crimps and no added damage. People with very long or thick hair will appreciate the added surface area on the 43-inch rod. If your hair is shorter, you can fold up the unused ends of the rods and secure them with the included scrunchies.

Though it would have been nice if this set came with a claw clip to secure the rod in place while wrapping your hair, most people won’t find this to be much of an issue since you can use any large claw clip you already own (or you can purchase one separately for fairly cheap). We found this to be comfortable for overnight use and preferred to use it that way over daytime wear. It’s safe for dry cleaning or hand-washing. 

The Details: 100 percent silk | Includes one silk curling rod and two silk scrunchies

Best for Volume

Octocurl heatless curler headband.

You won’t have to keep track of any other accessories with this one-piece curling tool.

It was difficult to achieve a tighter curl pattern.

Don’t be intimidated by this heatless curling device’s unusual shape — we found it surprisingly simple to use, especially after watching tutorials on Octocurl’s Instagram page . In our tests, we thought the cotton poplin headband, which is attached to eight curling rods, was very comfortable to sleep in, since the fabric and interior stuffing were both super soft. The adjustable headband didn’t feel tight or constricting. 

Since the curling rods have elastics attached to the bottom, all you need is this one item — making it extra convenient for travel since you don’t have to worry about storing and containing multiple pieces. We love that it’s available in four sizes based on hair length (ranging from seven-inch straps to 17-inch straps), as well as a kid-friendly version with a headband that is one inch smaller. 

The Details: Cotton poplin | Includes one curling headband

Best for Long Hair

Mane label hair co. original sway heatless curling ribbon.

Mane Label Hair Co.

The 63-inch velour curling ribbon is comfy to sleep in. 

It won’t work as well on layered haircuts. 

If you have long hair, you’ll appreciate the added length on this 63-inch velour heatless curling wand. Though we experienced a bit of a learning curve when trying to use this product, once we got the hang of it, we were able to wrap our hair in as little as five minutes — much less time than it takes to curl hair with a curling iron. The product (which comes in nine gorgeous color options) was very comfortable to sleep in, making it an excellent choice for overnight use. We also love that this product uses eco-friendly dyes, which do not produce harmful chemicals or environmental pollution.

The Details: Cotton plush velour | Includes one curling ribbon, one claw clip, and two elastics

Most Comfortable to Sleep In

Mermade hair heatless curls kit.

Mermade Hair 

The silk fabric is better for your hair than cotton.

An anti-frizz serum may help improve the look of the curls. 

Heatless curlers that are comfortable to sleep in are ideal for travel since you can wrap your hair in minutes before bed and wake up with a camera-ready hairstyle without taking precious time away from your trip for morning styling. In our tests, this pick by Mermade Hair stood above the rest in terms of overnight comfort and convenience. The 100 percent mulberry silk curling ribbon won’t draw moisture from your hair and helps prevent unwanted creasing. Meanwhile, the included silk scrunchies made it simple to secure our ends, and the claw clip held everything in place while we wrapped our hair. 

The Details: 100 percent mulberry silk | Includes one curling ribbon, two silk scrunchies, and one hair clip

Best Budget

The vintage cosmetic company satin heatless hair curler.

This wallet-conscious pick is great for beginners. 

 The curls may loosen a bit throughout the day.  

If you’re a heatless curling beginner and looking for a solid yet budget-friendly product to try, we recommend this satin and foam curling ribbon, which includes two scrunchies made from the same material. (We recommend securing it atop your head with a claw clip, which is not included.) Though not as delicate on your strands as its silk counterparts, we were still able to achieve voluminous curls with this item and especially appreciated it for overnight use. The soft material made it comfortable to sleep in, and therefore, we found it more convenient and luggage-friendly to pack for travel than a traditional hot curling iron. 

The Details: Polyester satin and foam | Includes one heatless curling ribbon and two scrunchies

Travel + Leisure / Kristen Geil

Best With Multiple Rods

Kitsch satin-wrapped flexi rods.

The satin rods provide voluminous, beachy waves. 

They’re not the most comfortable for overnight use.  

For a voluminous, loosely curled hairstyle that resembles bouncy beach waves, try Kitch’s six-piece flexible curling rod kit. Though not quite as comfortable as many of the other options on our list for overnight use, these are perfectly suited for curling your hair during the day. Simply divide your hair into six sections and wrap each around a single rod (if you have thicker hair, you may want to invest in a second pack to make sure all your hair fits in the rods), then twist into place. We liked that the product provides a more voluminous look than a heated curling iron, however, we found that hairspray was helpful to keep the curls in place. 

The Details: Vegan satin | Includes six curling rods

Other Heatless Curlers We Liked

There were a few other heatless curlers that stood out during testing, although they had some setbacks.

Cozy Curlers Short Cozy Curlers : The foam rods were great for creating tight curls, however, they were less comfortable to sleep in than many of our other favorites. 

Halo Hair Labs Icy Halo Heatless Curling Kit : Though this was easy to use and caused no issues overnight, we wished the rod had a bit more length to better accommodate long hair. 

Invisibobble Heatless Curling Set : This heatless curling set did the trick, but we prefer a silk option 

To find the very best heatless curlers in every category, we tested 23 products in a real-world setting over the course of two weeks. Each product was tested at least two or three times during the testing period. We applied them to slightly damp hair, or according to the manufacturer’s directions, and left them in our hair for a minimum of two hours. We paid close attention to ease of use, comfort (including during overnight use), curling ability, hair look and feel, as well as durability. We will continue to test our winners for an additional six months to make sure they hold up and will update the results as needed.

Tips for Buying Heatless Curlers

Consider your hair type.

All hair types can benefit from heatless styling (as opposed to hot tools), but certain types of heatless curlers are better suited for some hair types than others. While people with thicker hair may find foam rollers or flexi-rods provide the most hold, those with fine hair might have better luck with fabric-covered curling ribbons, which you can keep in overnight for longevity. 

Watch tutorials first

If you’ve never used heatless curlers before, there can be a bit of a learning curve. We recommend watching tutorials on how to use the specific product you’re considering buying. Make sure you understand the best methodology for getting the desired look with the product, and choose one that you think you'll use the most. Even after you purchase the product, we recommend learning how to use it and testing it out before traveling for best results.

Pick one for your desired hairstyle

Curling ribbons tend to create larger, beachier curls, while individual rods or foam rollers are better at creating a more tightly curled look. Consider your desired hairstyle when choosing the best product. You’ll also want to keep your hair length and thickness in mind, as longer hairstyles may require curling ribbons with added length, and thicker hair may need a greater number of curling rods or rollers to achieve the desired look. If you are planning to curl your hair overnight, we found that curling ribbons are the most comfortable option, while curling rod multi-packs work better for daytime use.  

Though instructions vary from product to product, in general, it is recommended to start with clean hair that is about 70-80 percent dry. Wrap your hair in the curlers per the product instructions, and leave them in your hair for at least two hours or overnight. (Overnight use is recommended for longevity of your hairstyle.) After unwrapping your curls, you may wish to use hairspray for added staying power. We recommend trying your heatless curlers at home before your trip so you can get a feel for the product and find the best methodology for your specific hair type and length.

In our tests, many of the heatless curlers provided comparable results to curling irons in terms of longevity, especially when used overnight. Depending on how well your natural hair holds a curl, most heatless curlers will create a hairstyle that lasts all day, although a bit of hairspray can help add staying power. 

Yes! As opposed to electric curling irons, which can damage your hair with excessive heat , heatless curling irons do not damage your hair at all. Our favorite fabric for heatless curlers is silk, as it does not draw moisture away from your hair (as cotton can), and it helps prevent unwanted creasing. Heatless curlers can safely be used on all hair types. 

Why Trust Travel + Leisure

For this story, Talia Ergas pored over Travel + Leisure 's copious notes to understand the pros and cons of each product tested. She combined extensive research into the heatless curler category with her years of experience as a beauty editor to provide a detailed analysis of the best product in every category.

The Hot Tool Brand Behind Jennifer Lopez and Anne Hathaway’s Bouncy Blowouts Is 20% Off

Hurry, this deal ends soon.

Shark/ InStyle

I’m inept with a hair dryer . Try as I may, mastering the wrist flick and tension that stylists employ with a round brush to create bouncy waves has proven practically impossible.

Luckily, tools designed to help the non-professionals among us achieve salon-worthy results exist. Among the most lauded are those from Shark , which produce more polish than most non-professionals can muster—which is not to say the pros aren’t using the tools, too. Celebrity stylists have employed Shark tools on the likes of Jennifer Lopez , Anne Hathaway , and Sydney Sweeney . Moreover, Chris Appleton , Shark’s Global Ambassador, who has worked with the likes of Kim Kardashian and Sofia Vergara , has full conviction behind the brand’s stylers. So, too, does my niece, a cosmetology student. “After I brought [the Shark FlexStyle ] to school, my entire class bought one too,” she told me. “Now we all use the Sharks and people assume they’re the ones that come in our kits.”

Shark FlexStyle Air Styling & Drying System Ultimate 6-Piece Accessory Pack Hair Stylers

Naturally, these pro-grade stylers come at a price—yet, from now through April 27, the brand’s hero product, its FlexStyle Air , is discounted exclusively for InStyle readers : Simply add the code INSTYLE20 at checkout to receive 20 percent off of four of the brand’s most covetable hot tools.

Shark FlexStyle Air Styling & Drying System Ultimate Travel Set in Copper

The Shark FlexStyle Air Styling & Drying System is a multi-functional hair tool that simultaneously dries, styles, and sets. Designed for all hair types and textures, it relies on a stream of temperature-controlled air—which, unlike traditional hot tools, is damage-free, per the brand.

The FlexStyle comes with numerous detachable, interchangeable heads, each with a unique function. The air-powered, hair-wrapping barrel attachments, for instance, create effortless waves, while a round brush attachment imparts salon-worthy bounce to any blowout. Perhaps most intriguing: The finishing attachment, designed to smooth flyaways for a sleek, salon-worthy finish. Simply put, versatility is at the forefront of this device, which allows for creating endless styles on a whim—without cluttering your hot tool collection with extra devices. 

The Shark FlexStyle is a win from an aesthetic standpoint, too: For one, it comes in an array of stylish hues (I’m eyeing the copper variation). Plus, the tool itself is sleek and surprisingly compact. At just 1.5-pounds in weight, it also mitigates arm ache (which, given my lengthy hair extensions and lack of muscle tone, is the bane of my blow-drying existence).

For a stylist-approved, celebrity-used hair tool that might just replace your salon blowouts, shop the Shark FlexStyle Air Styling & Drying System while it’s 20 percent off. Remember: Use the code INSTYLE20 at checkout, and hurry—the sale ends on April 27.

The best vacuum storage bags make the most of your space by removing the air inside and sealing it tight. Many use a vacuum or hand pump to suck out all the air, while some travel-friendly space bags can actually be hand-pressed shut. Because of this, they're great for packing out-of-season clothes, bedding and more into small spaces like under your bed or inside your suitcase .

After consulting our in-house experts and scouring online reviews, we've rounded up the best vacuum storage bags to shop on Amazon, starting at just $8 (with fast, free shipping to boot!).

The original Spacesaver vacuum storage bags are our top pick for heavy-duty storage needs where damage protection is imperative, like cross-country moves and travel. You can use either the included hand pump or your vacuum to reduce volume by up to 80%, according to the brand. Choose from small to jumbo sizes and variety packs for all your storage needs.

Reviewers appreciate its ease of use and sturdy plastic . "I'm moving all the way across the country and was stressed out wondering how much of my clothing I could actually take with me. These Space Saver bags are a life saver!" wrote one five-star reviewer . "They are so easy to pack, zip and vacuum out the air. One of my best purchases ever here on Amazon (and I've made thousands)."

Stow bulky bedding, sweaters, pillows and more with these space-saving storage bags. You can either use the included hand pump or a standard vacuum cleaner to compress each bag and reduce volume by up to 80%, according to the brand. For under $20, this pack comes with four bag sizes to store different items: the smallest size fits six to eight sweaters while the largest fits a queen-sized bedding set.

The triple-sealed valve is designed to keep bags airtight so your items stay condensed, and the double-layered material is designed to be puncture- and scratch-resistant, making it more durable against damage. "They're strong and sturdy," one Amazon reviewer said . "They have great sizes and storage space, and they hold the seal (some for a year now)."

Skip the checked luggage line at the airport with these travel-friendly storage bags. Forté named the Ziploc Space Bag a long-standing Lab favorite. There's no need for a pump or a vacuum to take the air out — simply fill each with up to five pounds of clothing or bedding, seal it with the Ziploc slider and fold to press out the air. It also costs under $10 for a pack of two.

Since they don't require any bulky equipment, these bags are a great option for users on the go. The brand claims the bags reduce the volume of clothing and bedding by up to 75%. They're also waterproof and airtight per the brand, meaning they should help protect your items from damage caused by travel and storage.

Boasting more than 38,000 five-star reviews and counting, Amazon's #1 best-selling space saver bags claim to shrink the size of your items by up to 80%. This variety pack includes 20 bags, making them great for anyone moving houses or with lots of vacuum storage needs. The pack includes standard vacuum-sealable bags as well as travel bags that can be rolled to press out air — no pump required.

Waterproof and reusable (purported by the brand), the bags' valves and seals are designed to prevent expansion and keep moisture and debris out. "The quality of these bags is outstanding," one online shopper wrote . "I feel confident storing my clothing, bedding and other textiles knowing they are safe and well-preserved."

Whether you need to increase your under-bed storage space or condense your clothes on the go, this pack offers the most variety with six different-sized bags for all your needs . The standard bags range from pouch-sized bags for lingerie and T-shirts to extra-large bags for bedding sets and pillows . Each waterproof bag has a handy line to show you where to stop filling them, making it more intuitive to pack than other options on our list.

While it can be sealed with the included hand pump or a vacuum, we love that the travel bags can be rolled to seal out excess air sans tool if needed. "These were a game changer during our move," an Amazon reviewer wrote . "The sizes vary drastically, accommodating many different types of items from quilts to pillows as well as clothes."

Hefty is known for its durable garbage bags and freezer bags, but the brand also has a line of high-rated vacuum storage bags. Including three large and three extra-large sizes, Hefty's Shrink-Pak bags claim to be waterproof and reusable season after season, so you don't have to worry about moisture, dust or bugs ruining your items. Plus, you can simply press the air out with your hands and seal.

We love how the extra large bags have a zipper on the long side rather than the shorter top, making it easier to pack bedding supplies like pillows and comforters. Shoppers agreed, with one writing : "We just went through a very long, drawn-out move and the shrink bags have been a true lifesaver! We were able to put lots of our clothes, towels and blankets in storage while we shopped for a new house. When we finally started unpacking, everything looked exactly the way it did when it was packed!"

Outfitted with a stylish plaid print, we wouldn't mind keeping these space bags out in plain sight. And it's not just for aesthetics. Their unique woven texture provides a bit of grip to their exterior, helping them to stay in place better while stacked. The bags come in four sizes and packs of six to 26, making them great for small organization projects and large undertakings.

Plus, they compress with a vacuum or its included pump. Reviewers appreciate the variety of sizes and ease of use, too. "I love these sealable storage bags!" one shopper wrote . "The quality is fantastic, very well-made and sturdy. I really like the assortment of colors and sizes, too, so much so that I ordered a second box!"

If you need to store cumbersome items like king-sized duvets, foam cushions or dog beds , Vacwel's XXL bags offer an impressive storage capacity of 47 by 35 inches . Featuring a nylon lining for extra durability, the brand claims these bags are waterproof and protect against dirt, bugs and dust. They even come with sticker labels to easily identify stored items.

"These bags are durable and got the job done," an Amazon shopper added . "I was able to vacuum seal large comforters and sheets! Very surprised at how many bedding items that I was able to put in the bags." Note that a pump is not included, so you'll need a vacuum handy to seal these bags.

Protect your out-of-season garments and make room for new pieces with these clever hanging storage bags on Amazon. You can stash up to five pieces of clothing inside each, including coats, jackets and suits . Just place one included hanger on each rotating ring, zip it up and vacuum all the air out. The vertical storage design keeps your clothes clean and organized until you're ready to wear them again.

"I get immense joy out of packing away my winter clothes in the Taili hanging bags," an Amazon reviewer said . "[It] shrink wraps everything into compact boards ... It was very easy and effective to use."

How we chose the best vacuum storage bags

With so many different options on the market, it can be difficult to determine which vacuum storage bags are worth buying. To help you find the right pick for your needs, we consulted our experts in the GH Institute Cleaning Lab and vetted customer reviews to bring you a range of vacuum storage bags that suit a variety of purposes.

How do you choose the best vacuum storage bags?

Choosing the best vacuum storage bags depends on your individual needs — do you just need to store a few seasonal sweaters, or pack up your whole house for a move? According to, the size and dimensions can help you figure out which options are right for you.

" They should be large enough to hold multiple items and be durable enough to use from year to year ," Forté says. For those who don't own a vacuum (or have one readily accessible), opt for a bag that can be rolled to compress or can be hand pumped.

What do you put in a space bag?

While you might want to use your vacuum storage bag to compress bulky items like winter coats and duvets, Forté warns against vacuum-sealing down-filled items . Instead, she recommends only compressing them halfway.

"Otherwise, you risk crushing and breaking the down feathers and they may then not be as lofty or insulate as well," Forté says. Additionally, be sure not to store wet items, or you risk creating mold and causing long-term damage.

How long can you store items in a vacuum storage bag?

Forté recommends using storage bags for short-term and seasonal storage . "Keep items in them too long, and you risk permanently setting creases or crushing and flattening items that are supposed to be lofty and puffy," Forte says. For best results, be sure to check the recommended storage time on your bag's instructions.

Associate Commerce Editor Lauren Gruber put together this list of the best vacuum storage bag picks, based on insights and recommendations from Carolyn Forté .

City Street Guides by f.d. walker: A Street Photography Guide to Moscow, Russia

*A series of guides on shooting Street Photography in cities around the world. Find the best spots to shoot, things to capture, street walks, street tips, safety concerns, and more for cities around the world. I have personally researched, explored and shot Street Photography in every city that I create a guide for. So you can be ready to capture the streets as soon as you step outside with your camera!

At over 12 million people, Moscow is the largest city in Russia and second largest in Europe by population ( Istanbul is #1). An urban, cosmopolitan metropolis with more than enough glitz and glam to cater to the elite, but without losing its fair share of Soviet era roughness around the edges. It can be fast paced, brash, busy, and trendy like other big cities, but it has its blend of West meets Russia atmosphere and beauty that provides plenty of unique interest. The Red Square is as famous as it gets, but there’s so much more to this city, including the most beautiful subway system you’ve ever seen. It would take years to capture all of Moscow, but that means you have an endless amount of areas to discover.

So here’s a Street Photography guide so you can be ready to capture all that Moscow has to offer before you even arrive!

• Patriarch’s Pond
• Old Arbat Street
• Maroseyka Street
• Tverskoy Boulevard

Top 5 Street Spots:

1. red square.

The Red Square is the most famous square in not just Russia, but all of Eastern Europe. The name actually doesn’t come from the color of the bricks or communism, but from the name in Russian, Krásnaya, once meaning “beautiful” before its meaning changed to “red.” This large plaza is what you see on the cover of guide books and magazines for Moscow, with St. Basil’s Cathedral being the center piece next to Lenin’s Mausoleum surrounded by the Kremlin Wall. Of course, the Red Square attracts hordes of tourist due to the main attractions, but all that activity around an interesting atmosphere does provide street photo opportunities. It’s also the central square connecting to the city’s major streets, providing a good starting point to explore outward.

You’ll also find the popular pedestrian only Nikolskaya Street connecting the Red Square to Lubyanka Square. This line of expensive shops includes plenty of activity, while also leading you to another popular square. Filled with history rivaling any city, the Red Square and surrounding areas are the heart and soul of Russia.

2. Patriarch’s Ponds

Patriarch’s Ponds is one of the most exclusive neighborhoods in Moscow. Despite the name being plural, there’s only one large pond, but it’s worth a visit with your camera. It’s a popular spot for locals and expats to come relax or take a stroll around the pond. You get an interesting mix of young and old too, from young love to “babushkas” feeding pigeons. It’s a very peaceful park atmosphere in one of the nicer areas within the city center, while bringing enough activity for street photography. 

The pond is shallow and in the winter becomes a popular spot for ice-skating too. The area is also well-known for the location in the famous Russian novel, The Master and Margarita. 

3. Old Arbat (Stary Arbat)

Old Arbat is the most famous pedestrian street in Moscow, and dating back to the 15th century, also one of its oldest. Originally, it was an area of trade, but soon became the most prestigious residential area in Moscow. During the 18th century, Arbat started attracting the city’s scholars and artists, including Alexander Pushkin. Cafes lined the streets and impressive homes filled the neighborhood. Since then, New Arbat street was created as a highway in the area, while Old Arbat was paved for a 1km pedestrian only walkway.

Due to the historic buildings, famous artists that lived here, and the bohemian atmosphere, Old Arbat has become a big attraction for tourists today. Now, there’s a mix of cafes, restaurants, souvenir shops, street performers, street merchants and other attractions for visitors, and some locals, to come enjoy. It can get really busy here and there’s usually something interesting going on so it’s a good street to come walk with your camera for guaranteed life.

4. Gorky Park

One of the most famous places in Moscow is Gorky Park. The official name is Maxim Gorky’s Central Park of Culture & Leisure, which gives you an idea of what goes on here. When built, it was the first of its kind in the Soviet Union. Divided into two parts, it stretches along Moscow River. One end contains fair rides, foods stands, tennis courts, a sports club, a lake for boat rides, and more. This end brings more active life due to its number of attractions, while the other end is more relaxed, where you’ll find gardens, trees, older buildings, and an outdoor amphitheater.

Gorky Park attracts mostly locals so it’s a good spot to capture the non-tourist side of Moscow life. Muscovites come here to escape the city and unwind in a picturesque setting. The park remains alive outside of the warmer months too, especially when the lake turns into the city’s largest outdoor skating rink. I’d recommend taking the metro out here to spend at least half a day exploring the massive park’s life with your camera.

5. Maroseyka Street

Maroseyka Street is a popular area not too far from the Red Square. The long, winding street turns into Pokrovka and is lined with restaurants, cafes, bars and places to stay. It’s actually where I like to stay when I’m in Moscow due to its location and solid street photography opportunities itself. You have Kitay-gorod station near and if you keep walking southwest, you’ll get to the Red Square. But if you walk northwest, as it changes to Pokrovka, you can find a long street of activity for photography with its own interesting atmosphere.

6. Tverskoy Boulevard

Tverskoy Boulevard is the oldest and longest boulevard in Moscow, beginning at the end of Nikitsky Boulevard, and finishing at Pushkin Square, a spot to come for activity itself. The boulevard is made up of two avenues, with pedestrian walkways in-between. You’ll find grass, shrubbery, trees, benches and more walking it’s almost kilometer length. Many people come here to enjoy some relaxation, walk their dog, or just to use it to walk wherever they’re going. Its center location also provides a nice place to walk with your camera near plenty of other spots you’ll want to check out anyway.

Sample Street Walk:

For a full day of Street Photography, covering some of the best spots, you can follow this sample street walk for Moscow:

• Start your morning walking around the Red Square (1), while exploring the surrounding area, including Nikolskaya Street
• Then walk northwest to Patriarch’s Ponds (2) and slowly walk the pond and surrounding area with your camera
• Next, walk east to the Pushkin Monument and stroll down Tverskoy Boulevard (6)
• Once Tverskoy Boulevard (6) ends, it will turn into Nikitsky Boulevard. Follow this down until you get to the start of Old Arbat Street (3), across from Arbatskaya station
• After you’re done walking down Old Arbat Street (3) for more street photography, spend some time checking out Moscow’s beautiful metro stations
• To finish off the day with more street photography, get off the metro near Red Square (1) again, Maroseyka Street (5) or wherever you’re staying for the night.

3 Things I’ll Remember about Shooting in Moscow:

1. museum metro.

The Moscow metro system was the first underground railway system in the Soviet Union and today includes 203 stations across 340km of routes. The elaborate system has some of the deepest stations in the world too, with escalators that seem to go on forever. None of this is what makes it so special, though. Many of its stations feel like stepping inside a museum, making it without a doubt the most interesting and beautiful metro system I’ve been in.

When built, Stalin wanted to make the metro stations “palaces for the people” with marble, chandeliers, and grand architecture. The best part is the variety of architecture and styles used, making many of the stations a completely different experience visually. You could easily spend a whole day traveling the stations and there are even tours available for people who wish to do just that. My advice, though, would be just to buy a ticket and hop on and off at different stations, while exploring different lines. The museum-like surrounding mixed with the crowds of characters can make for a great photography experience.

Since there are so many stations, here are some of my favorites to check out:

• Novoslobodskaya
• Mayakovskaya
• Elektrozavodskaya
• Komsomolskaya
• Ploschad Revolyutsii
• Dostoyevskaya
• Prospekt Mira

2. Moscow is Big

It’s no secret that Moscow is a big city, but it can feel even bigger with how spread out much of it is. This is especially true if you compare it to cities outside of Asia. If I compared it to cities in Europe, I’d probably say only Istanbul would warrant more time to really discover the depths of this city. Most only explore around the Red Square and surrounding area, but that is such a small part of the city. Although, that central area does give you plenty to see on its own.

Fortunately, I had a good friend living in the city to show me around, but it opened up my eyes even more to how much there is to discover in Moscow. It’s a big city with a variety of atmosphere that can take you from “east” to “west” and trendy to rugged depending on where you go. I’d imagine you’d have to live here a while to really know the city.

3. Cosmopolitan Mix of East meets West

Modern skyscrapers mixed with amazing architecture, a world-class metro system with museum-like beauty, trendy fashion and chic clubs, Moscow is a rich mix of Russian culture and history in a more western cosmopolitan package. There is a push to keep the Russian culture, while also pushing forward with a modern metropolis the whole world will envy. This comes with an impressive skyline, that continues to grow, and endless modernities, but with soviet nostalgia and atmosphere mixed in for good measure.

Mixed in with this grand western cosmopolitan atmosphere, is a strong national pride in Russia. This includes their famous leader, Vladimir Putin. Maybe no other place will you see a country’s leader more often. All over, from the pricey tourist shops to the underground walkway stalls, you’ll find goods with Putin’s likeness covering them. From t-shirts to magnets to Matryoshka dolls. There’s a strong national pride that can be seen around the city, which also extends to their leader. Moscow is many things. It’s East meets West, modernizations meets Soviet era, and a whole lot more.

What To Do For a Street Photography Break?:

Eat at a stolovaya.

Stolovayas are Russian cafeterias that became popular in the Soviet days. You grab a tray and walk down the line of freshly prepared local dishes, and select whatever you want from the chefs. They’re usually inexpensive and a much better value than restaurants, while giving you the opportunity to try from a wide selection of everyday Russian food. They’re also very tasty. I always include some borsch on my tray and go from there. The places themselves are all over Moscow and usually come with Soviet-era aesthetics to complete the experience.

Street Safety Score: 7

*As always, no place is completely safe! So when I talk about safety, I’m speaking in general comparison to other places. Always take precaution, be smart, observe your surroundings and trust your instincts anywhere you go!

Being the 2nd largest city in Europe with over 12 million people, you’re going to have your dangerous areas, but for the most part, it feels safe walking around. Russia is statistically higher in crime compared to most of Europe, but this generally doesn’t apply to tourists and visitors. Around the Red Square and surrounding city center, you should feel completely safe walking around. Pick pocketing can happen, but no more than other touristic places. I always explore Moscow freely without coming across too much to worry about. It’s a spread out city, though, so of course it matters where you are. Just use basic street smarts, know where you are and Moscow shouldn’t give you a problem. 

People’s Reaction Score: 7

Moscow is fast paced, big city life, which usually means people aren’t too concerned with you, or your camera. I don’t find people notice or pay much attention to me when I’m out taking photos in Moscow. For the most part, people just go about their day. You shouldn’t get too many looks or concern. But it can depend on the area you are in. The more you stick out, the more you might get noticed with suspicions. I’ve never had any problems in Moscow, or Russia, but just be careful who you’re taking a photo of if you get out of the city center. Other than that, it’s about average for reactions. 

Street Tips:

Learn the alphabet .

Much of Moscow, including the metro system, doesn’t use english. The Russian alphabet uses letters from the Cyrillic script, which if you aren’t familiar with it and don’t know the sounds, can be hard to decipher the words. This is most important for street names and metro stops when trying to get around. It can save confusion and make it easier getting around if you learn the basic alphabet. At the very least then, you can sound out the words to see which are similar in the english conversion, which can help matching them to maps. When out shooting street photography, getting around is as important as anything. So save yourself some time and frustration by learning the Russian Alphabet.

Use the metro

While Saint-Petersburg feels very walkable for a city its size, Moscow can feel very spread out, even for its bigger size. Outside of the Red Square area, you can have plenty of walking before getting anywhere very interesting, so you’ll need to take the metro a lot if you really want to explore the city. Maps are deceiving here too, it will always be further than it looks.

Another reason it’s less walkable than Saint-Petersburg is its completely different set-up. Moscow’s streets are mostly contstructed in rings with narrow, winding streets in-between. This is common with medieval city cities that used to be confined by walls, but you usually don’t have it in a city this massive. Saint-Petersburg has a more grid-like pattern that also uses the canals to help you know your way around. When it comes to navigating on foot in Moscow, it can be more difficult, so bring a map and take the metro when needed. It’s why Moscow’s metro carries more passengers per day than the London and Paris subways combined.

Explore other areas if you have time

Moscow is really big. While most people stay around the Red Square within the Boulevard Ring, there’s so much more to the city. I covered some other spots outside of this circle, but if you really want to see the city, you’ll need time. If you do have time, some other areas I’d check out first are Zamoskvarechye, along some of the south and western Moscow.

Inspiration:

For some more inspiration, you can look through the Street Photography of Moscow photographer Artem Zhitenev  and check out 33 of my photos taken in Moscow .

Conclusion:

Moscow’s name brings a certain mystique, but once you’re there it might bring a different atmosphere than you expect. It’s big and sprawling, but beautiful in many ways. It can feel like a European capital on a grand scale, but you can definitely find its Russian side in there.

The urban sprawl of Moscow can be intimidating, but give it enough time and you’ll be rewarded with plenty to discover. All with the world’s best metro system to take you around.

I hope this guide can help you start to experience some of what Moscow contains. So grab your camera and capture all that Moscow has to offer for Street Photography!

19 Unique And Fabulous Experiences In Moscow

• Destinations

Thinking of visiting Russia? When visiting such a famous city, one must, of course, visit the iconic landmarks first. Moscow has plenty of those, most of them in the center of the city, which is very well-planned for tourists. Once you’ve seen the sights that are on most travelers’ lists, it’s time to branch out and visit some of the lesser-known sites, and there are some fascinating places to see and things to do.

I know this list is long, but I just couldn’t help myself. You probably won’t have the time to see them all. But that’s okay. Just scroll through the list and choose what sounds the most interesting to you. Where possible, make sure to book in advance, as things can get crowded, especially during high season.

1. The Red Square, Kremlin, And Surroundings

Red Square (Krasnya Ploshad) is the heart and soul of Russia, and where much of the country’s history has unfolded. This is the most famous landmark in Moscow and indeed the whole country, it’s an absolute must-do! The square is always full of people and has a rather festive atmosphere!

Saint Basil’s Cathedral

This is the famous church with the rainbow-colored, onion-domed roof. The cathedral was commissioned in the 1500s by Ivan the Terrible and according to legend, the Tsar thought it was so beautiful, that he ordered that the architect’s eyes be cut out afterward, so he could never build anything more beautiful! He wasn’t called Ivan the Terrible for no reason!

Lenin’s Mausoleum

The “love-it-or-hate-it” of tourist attractions in Russia. A glass sarcophagus containing the embalmed body of Russian revolutionary, Vladimir Lenin. It may seem a bit bizarre to display the mummy of a person, but it has been there for almost half a century and the 2.5 million visitors who come each year, clearly feel the queuing and thorough body search are worth it, to be in Lenin’s presence.

Pro Tip: no photos and no loud talking are allowed inside the Mausoleum.

Eternal Flame

There is an Eternal Flame in honor of an unknown soldier on the left side of Red Square. The hourly changing of the guards is worth seeing.

The Kremlin is the official residence of the Russian president. You can see it from the outside, or you can take an excursion to one of the museums located inside. This is the biggest active fortress in Europe, and holds a week’s worth of attractions! Once behind the 7,332-feet of walls, there are five squares, four cathedrals, 20 towers, various museums, and the world’s largest bell and cannon to see. Worth a special mention is the Armory Chamber that houses a collection of the famous Faberge Eggs.

Pro Tip: You can only go inside the Kremlin if you are part of a tourist group.

2. Bolshoi Theatre

Bolshoi Theatre translates to “The Big Theatre” in Russian, and the building is home to both the Bolshoi Ballet and Bolshoi Opera — among the oldest and most famous ballet and opera companies in the world.

Pro Tip: It’s hard to get an inexpensive ticket, so if you’re reading well in advance of going to Moscow then try buying tickets on the official website . Last-minute tickets cost around $250 per person. If this is out of your budget, about an hour before a performance, you can try buying a ticket at the entrance from a reseller. Most can speak enough English to negotiate the price.

Tour the Bolshoi Theatre: You can take a group guided tour of the Bolshoi Theatre which focuses on the history and architecture of the theatre and behind the scenes. There’s an English language tour that lasts 2 hours and costs around $300 for a group of up to six.

3. Luxury Shopping At GUM And TSUM

Russia’s main department store, GUM, has a stunning interior that is home to over 100 high-end boutiques, selling a variety of brands: from luxurious Dior to the more affordable Zara. Even if shopping is not on your Moscow to-do list GUM is still worth a visit; the glass-roofed arcade faces Red Square and offers a variety of classy eateries. TSUM, one of the biggest luxury malls in town, is right behind the Bolshoi and GUM. It’s an imposing building with lots of history, and worth a visit just for its design and its glass roof.

4. Christ The Savior Cathedral

This is one of Russia’s most visited cathedrals and is a newer addition to the gorgeous array of Muscovite cathedrals, but don’t let its young age fool you. After perestroika, in the early 90s, the revived Russian Orthodox Church was given permission to build a cathedral on this site. It did the location honors and built the largest temple of the Christian Orthodox Church. The façade is as grand as you’d expect, but it’s the inside that will mesmerize you, with its domes, gold, gorgeous paintings, and decor!

The cathedral is located just a few hundred feet away from the Kremlin and was the site of the infamous Pussy Riot protest against Putin back in 2012.

Pro Tip: Bring a shawl to cover your hair as is the local custom.

5. Gorky Park

Moscow’s premier green space, Gorky Park (Park Gor’kogo) is the city’s biggest and most famous park. There is entertainment on offer here for every taste, from outdoor dancing sessions to yoga classes, volleyball, ping-pong, rollerblading, and bike and boat rental in summer. In winter, half the park turns into a huge ice skating rink. Gorky Park is also home to an open-air movie theater and the Garage Museum of Contemporary Art. There is also Muzeon Art Park, a dynamic contemporary space with a unique collection of 700 sculptures. It is located right in front of Gorky Park.

6. Sparrow Hills Park

If you take a walk from Gorky Park, along the Moscow River embankment, you’ll end up in the city’s other legendary park, Sparrow Hills. Although the park doesn’t offer as many activities as its hip neighbor, it has a great panoramic view of the city

Pro Tip: You can take a free walking tour to all of the above attractions with an English-speaking guide.

7. River Cruising

One of the best ways to experience Moscow, and see all the famous landmarks, but from a different angle, is from the Moscow River. Take a river cruise. Avoid the tourist crowds. There are little nameless old boats that do the cruise, but if you are looking for a more luxurious experience take the Radisson Blu cruise and enjoy the sights with some good food and a glass of wine.

8. Metro Hopping

Inaugurated in the 1930s, the Moscow Metro system is one of the oldest and most beautiful in the world. Started in Stalinist times, each station is a work of art in its own right. I’d recommend touring the stations between 11 a.m. and 4 p.m. This way, you’ll be able to properly see it without the crowds. Ideally, I’d recommend taking a tour with a knowledgeable guide with GuruWalk, who will tell you stories of forgotten stations and how the history of the country is interconnected with the metro development. If going by yourself, then I definitely recommend checking out: Mayakovskaya, Ploschad Revolutsii, Kievskaya, Kropotkinskaya, Kurskaya, and Novoslobodskaya stations.

Visit the free Moscow Metro Museum: For real train enthusiasts, located in the southern vestibule of Sportivnaya station is a small free museum. Here you can take a peek into the driver’s cabin, see a collection of metro tokens from different cities, and see different models of a turnstile, traffic lights, escalator, and more.

9. Moscow State University View

In his effort to create a grander Moscow, Stalin had seven skyscrapers built in different parts of town; they’re called the Seven Sisters. The largest of these buildings and the one with the best view is the main building of the Moscow State University. Although this is a little outside the city center, the view is more than worth it.

10. Izmailovsky Market

Mostly known for the city’s largest flea market, the district of Izmaylovo is home to a maze of shops where you can get just about anything, from artisan crafts to traditional fur hats, handcrafted jewelry, fascinating Soviet memorabilia, and antiquities. It’s also one of Moscow’s largest green spaces. There are often no price tags, so be prepared to haggle a bit. Head to one of the market cafes for a warming mulled wine before continuing your shopping spree.

The History of Vodka Museum is found here, and the museum’s restaurant is the perfect place to sample various brands of the national drink.

Once you’ve covered the more touristy spots, Moscow still has plenty to offer, and the places below will also be full of locals! So for some local vibes, I would strongly recommend the spots below!

11. Moscow City

With a completely different vibe, Moscow City (also referred to as Moscow International Business Center) is like a mini Dubai, with lots of impressive tall glass buildings. Here is where you’ll find the best rooftops in towns, like Ruski Restaurant, the highest restaurant both in Moscow City and in Europe. Moscow City is great for crowd-free shopping and the best panoramic views of the city.

12. Tretyakov Gallery

Tretyakov Gallery started as the private collection of the Tretyakov brothers, who were 19th-century philanthropists. They gave their private collection to the government after their deaths. If there is just one museum you visit in Moscow, I recommend this one!

13. Tsaritsyno Museum-Reserve

Tsaritsyno was a residence of Catherine the Great more than two centuries ago. It became derelict during the Soviet era but has now been fully renovated. With its opulently decorated buildings, gardens, meadows, and forests, Tsaritsyno Park is the perfect place for a green respite in Moscow.

14. Kolomenskoye

A 10-minute metro ride from the city center is Kolomenskoe Museum-Reserve, where you can get an idea of what Russia looked like 200 years ago. You’ll find ancient churches (one dating back to the 16th century), the oldest garden in Moscow, and the wonderful fairytale wooden palace of Tsar Alexey Mikhailovich, father of Peter the Great.

15. Ostankino TV Tower

Built in 1967, Ostankino TV Tower was the tallest free-standing construction in the world at the time, it’s still the 8th tallest building in the world and the highest in Europe. It’s also the best observation deck, with a glass floor and 360-degree views. The speedy elevators take you 1,105 feet in next to no time.

Pro Tip: You need to book in advance; entrance is based on specific ticket times and the capacity is limited and only a certain number of tourists are allowed per day. Don’t forget your passport, you’ll need it to get through security.

16. Zaryadye Park

Zaryadye is a newly opened, landscaped urban park so new you won’t find it in a lot of tour guides. The park is near Red Square and is divided into four climatic zones: forest, steppe, tundra, and floodplains, depicting the variety of climatic zones in Russia.

These last three suggestions are a little quirky, but all are really worth checking out.

17. Museum Of Soviet Arcade Games

Release your inner child playing on 66 arcade machines from the Soviet era! What a great way to spend a couple of hours when tired of visiting museums and palaces. The staff speaks excellent English and are happy to explain how the games work.

18. Moscow Rooftop Tour

Take a 1-hour private Moscow rooftop tour with an experienced roofer. I can just about guarantee none of your friends will be able to say they’ve done it! For your comfort, I recommend wearing comfortable shoes. Take your camera, there are some amazing photo opportunities out there!

19. Sanduny Banya

This classical Russian bathhouse opened its doors in 1808 and is famous for combining traditional Russian banya services with luxurious interiors and service. If you enjoy spas and saunas, then you should experience a Russian bathhouse at least once in your life! Go with an open mind and hire a specialist to steam you as it’s meant to be done — by being beaten repeatedly with a besom (a leafy branch)! This is said to improve circulation, but is best done by a professional!

So there you have my list of things to do in Moscow. I could have gone on and on and on, but I didn’t want to try your patience! There are so many things to do in this vibrant city that you’ll definitely need to allocate several days for exploring.
