Figure $120 per day and you can get a guide and translator rolled into one.

so for the record, I found a translator-guide that is going to work with me for $5 an hour, I'll pay meals, metro, and entrance fees...........I think this is fair and I am very happy about it! Cool

Why do you even need a translator/guide if your friend you are traveling with is Russian? And you have been there before?

My friend is Russian and speaks almost no english, so it is better if we have someone that speaks both. In the evening we will be on our own, which we have done before, but it hard to do that for six straight days. At night it is good, we get to work on each others language!
