Essential information
  • The usual tip size in restaurants is 10% of the check. Recommended tips for guides and drivers is $8-12 per day for a great level of service.
  • ​If you're going on a tour in spring or late summer, make sure to take some light jacket or a sweater with you. It can get really windy in Moscow.
  • ​Debit and credit cards are accepted in most places in Moscow and there are plenty of ATMs if you need some cash for meals and tips. One exception is Trans-Siberian tours. You should bring a few hundred dollars with you on the trip to pay for food as trains do not have ATM machines.
Getting around The city
When it comes to traveling from sight to sight, Moscow offers wide range of public transportation, making it easy to get around the city. You can choose from metro, buses, trolleys, trams and taxis. To avoid traffic jams and for better access to landmarks, plan your trip using Metro services.
Recommended stay time
To get a real taste of the capital it is highly recommended to spend at least three days visiting different sights. Although if you travel during a festival, make sure to leave extra time for iconic landmarks.
