Page 15 Summary

Before traveling to Moscow one has to decide wither to travel in a group or individual.  Either way there are many agencies that will provide all the available experiences that you will get in Moscow. There are many ways to travel in a group to Moscow. There is the regular way of traveling which is sight-seeing package tour. Also, for individual traveler, there is a group that is joined from individual travelers that usually don’t know each other. These groups are fairly big containing between twenty five to forty people. These groups combine standard features “First class hotel accommodations, tree full meals daily with full board, transportation, sight-seeing excursions, entrance fees and tour guide”(1). The second form of group travel is group with special interest. These groups get interest related tour programs form wide variety of activity and trips. These tours also include Airline travel and hotels booking. I also found an expansion to this topic in the book Fodor’s Moscow. The book Fodor’s Moscow has more information on the group travel.  “The price of these group travel with special interest range wide, but usually higher than escorted tours and programs”(2). Both travel plans are available with great tourist experiences in Moscow. Most travel agents will provide you with all of these options and more. The travel agents can also provide guided tours and excursions. While searching in to expand the summarized topic I found the book Eyewitness Travel Guides Moscow share the same topic. In the book Eyewitness Travel Guides Moscow, that the Travel agencies operate most of bus tours in Moscow these bus tours are the most popular way of tours in the city. “The Intourist agency offers a wide range of tours, mainly to the most well-known sights. Patriarshiy Dom Tours offers a range of tours in English”(3).
