• dancinmum 0 contributions 5.0 of 5 bubbles Fantastic morning We went on the sunrise and Segway tour at Uluru Had a brilliant morning with fantastic view and a great tour. The guides were very informative , friendly and fun. We had a lesson in riding a Segway before we set off, (we didn’t need this as we have been onSegways a few times but good to have a refresher ) The base tour took a couple of hours with various stops for photographs in the areas which were allowed . I would recommend this as the best way to see the Rock Read more Written 3 April 2024
• badennsherylh 0 contributions 5.0 of 5 bubbles Great way to see Uluru We did the sunrise tour with the lite breakfast. Early morning (5:45) pickup from the resort was easy, just need to make sure everyone has a park past. At the viewing point we had a good selection of food and drinks for the lite breakfast. It was an awesome day the sunrise was perfect. Off to the base of Uluru for the training and guided walk to the watering hole. Training was well ran and even the newbies picked it up easily. We were lucky that the trail around the rock was open, as it had rained a couple of days earlier and parts had been closed. The 2hr ride was great and Nick our guide was very informative and helpful, with good stops along the way for photos. Back to the resort about 11am. Read more Written 3 April 2024

Amazing experience to see Uluru in a different light because of the rain, Amber was a lovely tour guide and Sammy was a great driver and a great photographer. Highly recommend, even though we didn't get to ride the Segway, we don't regret it and would do it again anytime!

• Footprints401796 0 contributions 5.0 of 5 bubbles Thanks, Nick I don't typically write reviews. This is the first time I leave a review without being asked. I want to share that this is a fantastic experience. Our guide Nick is super patient and knowledgeable. Never ridden a Segway before, I appreciate Nick gave us plenty of time to feel comfortable during the training course. Although there were tight time constraints, Nick handled the time pressure very well. Morning is a great time to tour Uluru base on Segway when the daytime high is 41 degrees. I can still feel the little breeze under the burning sun. Read more Written 20 March 2024
• Joanne D 0 contributions 4.0 of 5 bubbles Amazing From the booking; to the prompt picking up from Hotel; the knowledgable tour guides - it was an amazing experience. Breakfast was ok, maybe get coffee/tea cups with lids so the flies don't drop in though. The only downside is that you have to ride in single file and don't get to talk/chat to your companions. The training beforehand was wellworth it as it made the ride easy. All in all we loved it. I would recommend. Read more Written 19 March 2024

Moscow Metro

The Moscow Metro Tour is included in most guided tours’ itineraries. Opened in 1935, under Stalin’s regime, the metro was not only meant to solve transport problems, but also was hailed as “a people’s palace”. Every station you will see during your Moscow metro tour looks like a palace room. There are bright paintings, mosaics, stained glass, bronze statues… Our Moscow metro tour includes the most impressive stations best architects and designers worked at - Ploshchad Revolutsii, Mayakovskaya, Komsomolskaya, Kievskaya, Novoslobodskaya and some others.

What is the kremlin in russia?

The guide will not only help you navigate the metro, but will also provide you with fascinating background tales for the images you see and a history of each station.

And there some stories to be told during the Moscow metro tour! The deepest station - Park Pobedy - is 84 metres under the ground with the world longest escalator of 140 meters. Parts of the so-called Metro-2, a secret strategic system of underground tunnels, was used for its construction.

During the Second World War the metro itself became a strategic asset: it was turned into the city's biggest bomb-shelter and one of the stations even became a library. 217 children were born here in 1941-1942! The metro is the most effective means of transport in the capital.

There are almost 200 stations 196 at the moment and trains run every 90 seconds! The guide of your Moscow metro tour can explain to you how to buy tickets and find your way if you plan to get around by yourself.

Touring the Top 10 Moscow Metro Stations

By Claudia Looi 2 Comments

Komsomolskaya metro station looks like a museum. It has vaulted ceilings and baroque decor.

Hidden underground, in the heart of Moscow, are historical and architectural treasures of Russia. These are Soviet-era creations – the metro stations of Moscow.

Our guide Maria introduced these elaborate metro stations as “the palaces for the people.” Built between 1937 and 1955, each station holds its own history and stories. Stalin had the idea of building beautiful underground spaces that the masses could enjoy. They would look like museums, art centers, concert halls, palaces and churches. Each would have a different theme. None would be alike.

The two-hour private tour was with a former Intourist tour guide named Maria. Maria lived in Moscow all her life and through the communist era of 60s to 90s. She has been a tour guide for more than 30 years. Being in her 60s, she moved rather quickly for her age. We traveled and crammed with Maria and other Muscovites on the metro to visit 10 different metro stations.

Moscow subways are very clean

To Maria, every street, metro and building told a story. I couldn’t keep up with her stories. I don’t remember most of what she said because I was just thrilled being in Moscow.   Added to that, she spilled out so many Russian words and names, which to one who can’t read Cyrillic, sounded so foreign and could be easily forgotten.

The metro tour was the first part of our all day tour of Moscow with Maria. Here are the stations we visited:

1. Komsomolskaya Metro Station  is the most beautiful of them all. Painted yellow and decorated with chandeliers, gold leaves and semi precious stones, the station looks like a stately museum. And possibly decorated like a palace. I saw Komsomolskaya first, before the rest of the stations upon arrival in Moscow by train from St. Petersburg.

2. Revolution Square Metro Station (Ploshchad Revolyutsii) has marble arches and 72 bronze sculptures designed by Alexey Dushkin. The marble arches are flanked by the bronze sculptures. If you look closely you will see passersby touching the bronze dog's nose. Legend has it that good luck comes to those who touch the dog's nose.

3. Arbatskaya Metro Station served as a shelter during the Soviet-era. It is one of the largest and the deepest metro stations in Moscow.

4. Biblioteka Imeni Lenina Metro Station was built in 1935 and named after the Russian State Library. It is located near the library and has a big mosaic portrait of Lenin and yellow ceramic tiles on the track walls.

5. Kievskaya Metro Station was one of the first to be completed in Moscow. Named after the capital city of Ukraine by Kiev-born, Nikita Khruschev, Stalin's successor.

6. Novoslobodskaya Metro Station  was built in 1952. It has 32 stained glass murals with brass borders.

7. Kurskaya Metro Station was one of the first few to be built in Moscow in 1938. It has ceiling panels and artwork showing Soviet leadership, Soviet lifestyle and political power. It has a dome with patriotic slogans decorated with red stars representing the Soviet's World War II Hall of Fame. Kurskaya Metro Station is a must-visit station in Moscow.

8. Mayakovskaya Metro Station built in 1938. It was named after Russian poet Vladmir Mayakovsky. This is one of the most beautiful metro stations in the world with 34 mosaics painted by Alexander Deyneka.

9. Belorusskaya Metro Station is named after the people of Belarus. In the picture below, there are statues of 3 members of the Partisan Resistance in Belarus during World War II. The statues were sculpted by Sergei Orlov, S. Rabinovich and I. Slonim.

10. Teatralnaya Metro Station (Theatre Metro Station) is located near the Bolshoi Theatre.

An excellent read! Thanks for much for sharing the Russian metro system with us. We're heading to Moscow in April and exploring the metro stations were on our list and after reading your post, I'm even more excited to go visit them. Thanks again 🙂
