Moscow City Breaks - Great Russian city of epic proportions
Moscow city breaks are a perfect introduction to a city at the heart of the great epic sweep of Russian history. The incredible extremes of the city (not least its climate!) ensure Moscow short breaks are an unforgettable experience. As well as the great historical sights of the Kremlin and Red Square, Moscow city breaks provide an endlessly fascinating insight into contemporary Russian society with all its contradictions and contrasts.

Moscow Short Breaks - Red Square and the Kremlin
Few Moscow short breaks are long enough to take in everything to see in this enigmatic city. All Moscow weekend breaks inevitably centre on the city’s familiar iconic sights: the Kremlin and Red Square. Most Moscow city break visitors are astonished by the sheer extent of the Kremlin and the variety of sights within, which include cathedrals and palaces as well as government buildings. Similarly, Moscow city breaks will return again and again to Red Square to visit Lenin’s Mausoleum, to go shopping in the famous GUM department store or simply take in the amazing spectacle of the domes of St Basil’s Cathedral. Moscow city breaks offer plenty of fine museums and galleries, along with world-famous ballet and opera at the Bolshoi Theatre and an amazing circus tradition. As well as history and culture, Moscow city breaks offer entertaining walks in Gorky Park, boat trips on the Moscow River, fascinating shopping, fine dining and some truly sophisticated nightlife. Just getting around the city is enough to make Moscow short breaks memorable, such is the astonishing grandeur and beauty of Moscow’s incredible metro stations.

Moscow weekend breaks - When to go
Winter city breaks in Moscow will find the city looking romantic under the snow but are not for those who feel the cold! Summer city breaks in Moscow are the most popular, but do consider spring and autumn Moscow weekend breaks when temperatures are better for sightseeing, Moscow cultural life is in full swing and there are far fewer tourists. Whenever you go, Moscow city breaks are sure to leave an indelible impression.
