Go beneath the streets on this tour of the spectacular, mind-bending Moscow Metro! Be awed by architecture and spot the Propaganda , then hear soviet stories from a local in the know. Finish it all up above ground, looking up to Stalins skyscrapers, and get the inside scoop on whats gone on behind those walls.

Know More about this tour

We begin our Moscow tour beneath the city, exploring the underground palace of the Moscow Metro. From the Square of Revolution station, famous for its huge statues of soviet people (an armed soldier, a farmer with a rooster, a warrior, and more), we’ll move onto some of the most significant stations, where impressive mosaics, columns, and chandeliers will boggle your eyes! Moreover, these stations reveal a big part of soviet reality — the walls depict plenty of Propaganda , with party leaders looking down from images on the walls. Your local guide will share personal stories of his/her family from USSR times, giving you insight into Russia’s complicated past and present. Then we’re coming back up to street level, where we’ll take a break and refuel with some Russian fast food: traditional pancakes, called bliny. And then, stomachs satiated, we are ready to move forward! We’ll take the eco-friendly electric trolleybus, with a route along the Moscow Garden Ring. Used mainly by Russian babushkas(grannies) during the day, the trolleybus hits peak hours in the mornings and evenings, when many locals use it going to and from their days. Our first stop will be the Aviator’s House, one of Stalin’s Seven Sisters, followed by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs — and you’ll hear the legends of what has gone on inside the walls. Throughout your Moscow tour, you’ll learn curious facts from soviet history while seeing how Russia exists now, 25 years after the USSR.

Traveler Reviews

This tour exceeded our expectations. Nikolai (Nick), our tour guide, was very knowledgeable, thorough, and has a great personality. He didn't take shortcuts and really covered everything that was on the agenda in great detail. We saw beautiful metro stations and learned the history behind them, including many of the murals and designs.

We did the tour with Anna her knowledge and understanding of the History surrounding the metro brought the tour alive. Well done Anna!

Tour Expedition Leader Lindblad Buys Adventure Travel Group

Jesse Chase-Lubitz , Skift

May 3rd, 2024 at 12:39 PM EDT

The new partnership is just the latest in Lindblad's recent acquisition spree.

Jesse Chase-Lubitz

Expedition travel leader Lindblad Expeditions announced this week the acquisition of Wineland-Thomson Adventures , an award-winning adventure travel group, through its subsidiary Natural Habitat Adventures.

The companies didn’t disclose the terms of the deal.

The move is meant to strengthen Lindblad’s presence in East Africa, particularly Tanzania, with the addition of Wineland-Thomson’s most prized possession – Thomson Safaris. Four-decade-old Thomson operates experiences across the Serengeti.

Wineland-Thomson’s portfolio also includes Gibb’s Farm, a lodge on the slopes of the Ngorongoro Crater in the Eastern Rift Valley of Northern Tanzania.

Shared Values Fuel Acquisition

Lindblad and Wineland-Thomson say they prioritize “sustainable” tourism practices and education. 

“With the addition of Wineland-Thomson and its esteemed Tanzania-based travel offerings, and world-class team members, we are not only expanding our footprint but are also creating more opportunities to inspire, educate, and preserve the wonders of our nature world,” said Sven-Olof Lindblad, founder and CEO of Lindblad Expeditions.

An Acquisition Spree

Lindblad acquired three other tour operators in April, including Off the Beaten Path, DuVine Cycle and Adventure Co, and Classic Journeys. This most recent acquisition aligns with Lindblad’s strategy of acquiring established adventure travel companies.

“The strategic acquisition of Wineland-Thomson will allow us to further expand our land offerings in and around East Africa,” said Ben Bressler, Founder and President of Natural Habitat Adventures. “And with the addition of Thomson Safaris … we will tap into the growth potential of small-group safaris in the beautiful Great Plains of Tanzania and beyond.”

Wineland-Thomson will continue providing stand-alone offerings and leverage Lindblad’s resources to accelerate growth and take advantage of demand trends, executives said

Growth at Lindblad

Lindblad also published its first-quarter earnings reports this week. Its total revenue increased 7% year-over-year to $153.6 million, and bookings were 4% ahead of the same period in 2023. 

While its EBITDA for land experiences was in line with the same period in 2023, the company said that increased tour revenues were offset by higher operating costs, including staff, investing in more departure options, and increased marketing.

• Kelly Kazek | [email protected]

If you haven’t heard of Greta Van Fleet, you need to put this band on your bucket list.

The group is touring in summer 2024 in support of their latest album, “Starcatcher.” Made up of the Kiszka brothers – twins Josh and Jake, and Sam – and Danny Wagner, Greta Van Fleet came on the scene in 2017 with the EP “Black Smoke Rising” and have since released the full studio albums “Anthem of a Peaceful Army,” “The Battle at Garden’s Gate” and “Starcatcher.”

The rockers will be at the Orion Amphitheater in Huntsville, Ala., May 8, 2024.

How to find tickets

Fans in Alabama can find tickets to the Huntsville show at Vivid Seats | StubHub | SeatGeek . The cheapest secondary tickets available at the time of this writing were $80 each from SeatGeek .

Greta Van Fleet’s second EP, “From the Fires,” won the 2019 Grammy Award for Best Rock Album.

“Anthem of the Peaceful Army,” released on October 2018, topped the Billboard Rock Albums chart in the first week after its release. The album’s first single, “When the Curtain Falls,” was the band’s third No. 1 single on the U.S. Billboard Mainstream Rock chart.
