Some lovely feedback from our clients
  • Our tour guide in Moscow, Julia Schelkunova: Educated, charming, stylish, and, above all else, patient while being peppered with questions from seven inquisitive Americans, four of whom are criminal defense lawyers with prodigious cross-examination skills. She knew the answers. Thank you, Julia, for making our trip lifetime memorable.

  • On several occasions, Julia Schelkunova guided groups of Indian guests that I was the tour leader of. Julia showed us the most spectacular Moscow locations, told us fascinating stories and made sure all our needs and special requests were met. But the greatest part was Julia's attitude - attentive and caring for each and every guest, her heart was with us. Thank you, Julia, I'm glad to have worked with you.
