Hi, I was just wondering whether anyone knows of some reliable guides that can run independent tours of places such as:
- Cathedral of Christ the Saviour
- Kolomenskoe
- Novodevichy Convent

I will be in Moscow 19/6/08 - 24/6/08,

With a little bit of research, you could easily do on your own. But these guys have a number of students that might be able to offer great insight. I did a few days with Ivan a few years ago.

I sent you Private Message with some information. WTR will not allow me to post 3 URLs in 1 Reply. I understand the reason for the restriction.

I just got back from Moscow, and I can assure you that you don't need a guide for the Cathedral of Christ The Redeemer. You just walk in and marvel at the sight of it. There's not much to explain except how they paid for it all. But if you are getting a guide anyway and want to make that one of several stops I guess it won't hurt. We did everything without a guide except for a 3 hour city bus tour run by Capital Tours that included a stop outside the Cathedral.
