I worked with these very cheerful young dancers from the D?sseldorf troupe "Deutsche Oper am Rhein" (“German Opera on the Rhein”) just one day on Sunday, April 20th. Louisa Rachedi (in the middle of this picture) requested my services on short notice (a week in advance). Fortunately I did not have date booked and was able to show Louisa and her couple of friends from the ballet troupe the city that day. It was interesting to work with this very sociable talanted people, the international group who currently lived and worked in Germany - Louisa from France, Colleen from USA and Taulyan from Albania. Even though it was quite chilly and rainy, they were excited to see and learn all about The Red Square, GUM, the changing of the Guards near Tomb of Unknown Soldier, Moscow Metro, Cathedral of Christ The Savior and we even had time to visit the Izmailovo Crafts Market with museum of Russian Bells before they gave their farewell performance of "Romeo in Juliet" in the theater of Stanislavskii and Nemirovich-Danchenko.

To all of you travelling to Moscow, surfing on Arthur's page debating on whether or not to hire his sevices, my only advice is DO IT! He will show you Moscow under a totally different angle.Not only will you get an in depth run down of what you are seeing,( as Arthur is very knowledgeable) but most of all you will have a fantastic human experience. being a tourist can sometimes get pretty lonely, (nose always burried in guide books, trying to desperately find your way in this maze of a city where the alphabet is not even the same).... But not with Arthur. With him you just have to sit back and enjoy. He will tailor the tour to your needs, sharing every single thing he knows about everything and anything.You will experience warmth, humour and true generosity on top of visiting a beautiful city.
I am recommending him a thousand times, as he will make your trip to Moscow an unforgettable priceless memory.
thank you arthur. You a truly a great man!
