We had the good fortune to be able to book Arthur for our wonderful 5 days in Moscow. Arthur is extremely professional, excellent English, and vast knowledge of the history and culture of Moscow and Russia. Not only is he a terrific driver and guide, he helped us find a place to stay after our choice of hotel let a lot to be desired. We noticed that some of the other tours near us were listening more to Arthur’s presentation of the history then their own tour guide. The photos that he took during our tour were outstanding and he presented us with a disc of photos when we were leaving. We have very fond memories about our stay in Moscow all because Arthur took such good care of us and every detail of the tour.
