We spent 5 days in Moscow and 5 in St. Petersburg in April/May 2010 and, as others have noted, everything was perfect!

We concur with all of the highly positive statements in the other testimonials but what we really want to say is that Alex of Alex's Tours and Travel sells, in part, confidence. We were a little hesitant about going to Russia and had dozens of questions.

We were traveling as part of a tour group, are both age 50 plus, and always stay in apartments.Through a never ending series of e-mails Alex addressed all of our questions and helped us every step of the way. On arrival we were fully confident that had we run into any difficulties he (and his network of contacts) was one phone call away. It was like having a personal friend in Russia.

We had an absolutely wonderful time thanks in large part to Alex's arrangements and tour guides but also due to all of the friendly Russian people that we met. This was an amazing holiday! Russia - if it isn't already - put it on your list!
