Vodka Museum Tour with transport (excursion only)

Lena, our guide in Moscow was excellent. She was very knowledgable and could answer any question we had for her. We liked that she could pick up on our interests and take us places we might not have thought of to go. When we realized that one of the places we had chosen to see would probably not be that interesting to us, she was able to arrange entry to the Diamond Fund and the Armoury for us. Riding the Metro with Lena was a real adventure and a lot of fun. In Saint Petersburg we found Anna well versed in the history of the Tsars and in the Hermitage collection. Arkady in Veliky Novgorod was a very good guide and answered all of our questions with ease. Novgorod was perhaps a long way to go for a day trip, but we did enjoy it. Vasily was a great driver to have and kept us safe with good humour and skill. We enjoyed ourselves so much, my daughter says she is already planning to return. We would both have no hesistation to recommend ExpresstoRussia to anyone we know.

Just wanted to let you know that My grandson Bruno and I couldn´t have been more pleased with our week in Moscow (6/15 - 6/21). We were absolutely enchanted with the whole experience, including getting lost a couple of times in the Metro during our free time. Although both our guides (both Eleanas) were excellent, I would particularly commend the first one (she took us to the Tatiakov, the KGB tour, and to that beautiful cemetery where so many great Russian artists, authors, composers, musicians, militarists, and politicians are buried). Her knowledge is encyclopedic; and her understanding of today´s Russia as a product of its past was, for us, truly enlightening. I will be taking another tour in Russia, with my wife, within the next two or three years. I will be in touch with you when the time comes. Meanwhile, I will refer you to other potential visitors to Russia as I meet them.

Moscow, a City Like No Other

Moscow is Russia’s largest city with a population of between 12 and 13 million. It is also Europe’s largest city and when you visit Moscow, you can feel it. The layout and architecture of the city is eclectic, ranging from crooked, ancient streets and alleyways to wide, bustling boulevards, from medieval churches to Stalin skyscrapers and to modern, glass buildings towering over everything and of course in the center of it all is the Kremlin and the magnificent Red Square. Moscow is also home to a fantastic, efficient and very beautiful metro system – each station having its own special design. In fact, Express to Russia’s Moscow metro tours and excursions are some of our most popular attractions that we offer. On our Moscow tours, you will see this and more.

Moscow Tours centering on Russian History

Moscow has a long and interesting history and has been the capital of Russia in many of its different iterations – capital of the Grand Duchy of Moscow , the Russian Empire and of course the Soviet Union (who could ever forget the Soviet Union?). Moscow, was founded in the 12th century by Prince Yuri Dolgaruki (Yuri of the long arms – he really did have long arms!). From that time on, it was home to the Russian Tsars until Peter the Great moved the capital to St. Petersburg in 1703. The city has survived invasions and sieges from the Mongols, the Tartars, the Poles, Lithuanians and Napoleon but has always persevered. Our Moscow tours will enlighten you on this great history and give you insights into Muscovites and their unique culture. Our Moscow tours show you what the city is like today but also brings to life the past. Moscow never seems to sleep and is bursting with energy. A Moscow tour with Express to Russia is truly the best way of getting to know Russia’s largest and most vibrant city.

Frequently Asked Questions From Our Travelers

What is the best time to visit moscow.

Any time of year is fine depending on what you plan to do. Summertime is pleasantly warm, ideal for exploring the city and its vibrant atmosphere, but Moscow will be much busier and accommodation is more expensive. Winter can be quite cold but beautiful nonetheless, and this is unproblematic if you intend to spend most of your trip in museums and galleries. There are also various festivals and events organised throughout the year. For more information about the best time to visit, read our guide

How many days are enough in Moscow?

If you plan your itinerary strategically and aren’t averse to a packed schedule, you can cover Moscow’s main sights over a long weekend. Most popular attractions are in the city centre, and the Moscow Metro allows you to cover much ground in a small amount of time. Ensure that your accommodation is fairly central and book tickets in advance, so that you can make the most of your days. For an informative and well-organised day out, check out our Moscow day tours with options to suit all interests.

Do they speak English in Moscow?

As Russia’s capital city, tourists are well accommodated in Moscow. There should be English-speaking staff in restaurants, bars, hotels, shops and attractions in tourist hotspots, and there are also English-speaking tourist police. Transport services have English translations on their maps and English announcements via intercom; alternatively, order taxis from the Yandex Taxi app (Russian Uber), though it’s unlikely that your taxi driver will speak English. If you get stuck and cannot communicate, it’s fine to use Google Translate.

Is it safe to travel to Moscow?

It is no less safe to travel to Moscow than to any European city if you exercise common sense and look after your belongings. As with every city some regions can be more unsavoury than others, but no tourist attractions are located there. The traffic in Moscow is notorious, so exercise caution when crossing roads. Do not take unlicensed taxis; book in advance or take public transport, which is widespread and perfectly safe. If you encounter any problems, look for the special tourist police who can help you. For more information, read our guide about staying safe in Russia .

Gary Player: ‘Tiger Woods’ PGA Tour career completely ruined’ amid “wrong decision”

Player dropped a bomb regarding Tiger Woods’ career and how changes prevented him from winning more majors on the PGA Tour.

Share All sharing options for: Gary Player: ‘Tiger Woods’ PGA Tour career completely ruined’ amid “wrong decision”

Gary Player joined the German KW Golf YouTube channel to discuss various topics, including his health, fantastic golf courses, exercise, golf coaches and the difference between pros and amateurs.

But most interestingly, he voiced his opinion on Tiger Woods' career and how the Big Cat’s choices saw him underachieve, relatively speaking of course.

Starting at 8:45 in the video, Player dropped the microphone.

“Tiger Woods had his career ruined, completely ruined,” Player said. “He won the 14th major at the U.S. Open at Pebble Beach. He won by 14 shots. The next week, he’s having a lesson from a man who, I don’t know if he played in the Masters, couldn’t break 80, but he’s having a lesson from this guy.”

He did not stop there. The 88-year-old explained how Woods continued to make what he deemed poor decisions.

“Then he goes to another guy who couldn’t break probably 85 in the Masters, with the pressure or the British Open or the PGA on the final day, and he’s having lessons from them,” he said. “Why did Tiger do that? He was so good, but I understand he wanted to get better. If he went along and never changed, he would have won a minimum of 22, maybe more.”

“He would have gone down as the greatest athlete the world has ever seen, man or woman on the planet, but he made the wrong decision,” Player said.

Player goes on to state there are at least 20 players that have screwed up their game because of their swing coach choices. He named Trevor Immelman, Mike Weir, Michael Cameron and Woods as a few examples.

Tiger won his 15th major in 2019 at the Masters, taking home the green jacket for a fifth time. After that, the horrific 2021 car crash set him back.

“Unfortunately, he’s hurt his leg so badly. Whether he’ll win another tournament or not is debatable,” Player noted.

The 24-time PGA Tour winner explained how he will always root for Tiger because of how he changed golf.

Player did not drop any swing coaches’ names, but those who have followed Tiger’s career likely know who he is hinting at ruining the 82-time winner’s career. Regardless, he voiced a strong opinion that will certainly create some discourse.

Did Woods ruin his career by changing his swing so many times, or were injuries and other elements causing him to underachieve as a golfer? Sound off in the comments, and let us know what you think.

Dillon Board wanted to go back to 'being a creator.' He created a gem last week in Texas

Dillon Board needed to refresh his game and had the solution. 

Go back to work. 

He not only found it in the dirt but in some familiar Westside dirt, with his longtime swing coach, at the Bent Creek Golf Club following two missed cuts in Argentina and Chile. 

And they were no-frills practice sessions. 

“No launch monitors, no video, no Track Man ... just me hitting and Eric watching,” said the Baldwin High graduate and member of the Korn Ferry Tour. “We went back to basics, hit some shots, tried not to over-analyze and just tried to paint a picture in my head. Real old-school stuff.” 

It worked, at least for one week, and it guaranteed that Board will get more starts, beginning in two weeks with the Korn Ferry’s stop in Kansas City, Mo. 

Board posted his best career finish on the Korn Ferry Tour last week with a tie for 16 th in the Veritex Bank Championship at the Texas Rangers Golf Club in Arlington, Texas. Board shot 19-under 165, with rounds of 64, 66, 69 and 66. 

Board made eight birdies in the final round and drained four putts of 17 feet or longer – including a 52-footer at No. 16. 

“It was a solid week,” he said. 

Board had to correct misses to the left

Board said he developed a left miss in South America, which is especially dangerous since he and Holcomb committed to a left-to-right game a few years ago. 

“When you’re aiming left for a fade and you go left, that’s concerning,” Board said. 

The work he and Holcomb put in took a week to take hold. Board missed his third cut in a row at the LECOM Suncoast Classic but he made enough birdies to convince him he was on the right track. 

Board said he likely would have made the field for the Advent Health Championship May 16-19 without his finish in Arlington. But the tie for 16 th got him in the field under the Korn Ferry Tour’s top-25 exemption for the following week and no doubt will help moving forward. 

Board is 90 th on the Korn Ferry points list. 

Board plays better when he's 'a creator'

In the end, he said when he has a feel for the game, he plays better. 

“I try to be a creator, an artist,” Board said. “I was trying too hard to be too precise. And it’s all about giving yourself opportunities. 

If Board can gain some steam, it would be one of the better success stories on the Korn Ferry Tour. He earned conditional status at the PGA Tour Q-School last December (then captained the winning team in the Henry Tuten Gator Bowl Pro-Am) and posted a top-20 in his first start in Colombia. 

Board played golf at three colleges and, by his best estimate, eight mini or developmental tours. He said he made a deal with his wife Mackenzie that if he didn’t get Korn Ferry status by the time he was 30, he’d “hung it up and gone out in the real world.” 

He turned 30 last November. Time is still on his side.

For successful performance coach Julie Elion, there’s nowhere to hide

With ascendant wyndham clark, stephan jaeger and now akshay bhatia, elion reluctantly embraces her moment.

Julie Elion, the performance coach, was at THE PLAYERS Championship last month when she was approached by a veteran who had fought in Afghanistan. He said he’d seen Wyndham Clark’s episode of “Full Swing” with its focus on mental health (including plenty of screen time for Elion) and had been moved to get help for his PTSD.

“I was tearing up, he was tearing up,” she said. “His wife was there. It was amazing.”

Such is life these days for golf’s most recognized sports psychologist, who until recently was so allergic to attention that she went by the nickname “Stealth.”

“It’s too late now,” Elion said. “I’m not ‘Stealth’ anymore.”

That’s probably an understatement.

Akshay Bhatia won the Valero Texas Open on Sunday to qualify for his first Masters this week. You can draw a line back to Elion via Ryan Davis, who works for her company, Center for Athletic Performance Enhancement (CAPE), and is Bhatia’s mental coach.

Two weeks ago, Stephan Jaeger won the Texas Children’s Houston Open for his first PGA TOUR title at age 34. You can draw a line back to Elion, who calls him one of her hardest workers and predicted a win was imminent while being interviewed for this story.

Last season, Wyndham Clark won the Wells Fargo Championship and U.S. Open and was the biggest turnaround story in years, and, again, you can draw a line back to Elion.

When it comes to the "Elion Effect" on the PGA TOUR, she could scarcely be any bigger. Things have gone well enough to invite comparisons to Bob Rotella, although she’s so in demand it might be better to call her a sort of Butch Harmon of the brain.

And it’s not just PGA TOUR pros. Players on the Korn Ferry Tour, LPGA and DP World Tour; junior golfers (or their parents) and collegiate stars – all have seen the example of Clark and called Elion to say, in essence, “I’ll have what he’s having.”

“I couldn’t be any busier,” she said. “Would I make an hour for Rory? Yeah, I would.”

That might sound brash if it didn’t come from the self-effacing Elion. Her ideal work attire would be an invisibility cloak, but that would be incompatible with the demands of building a business. CAPE is growing, and in an effort to keep up with demand, she recently vetted and hired three sports psychologists, Davis among them. He heard Elion on a podcast late last year and was struck by the similarities in the ways they thought about their jobs.

“She helps the whole person,” he said, “and the golf tends to follow. We spoke, and our styles are so similar. She’s given me some pearls along the way.”

Added Elion, of Davis, “The minute I met him I knew he was right for this.”

Bhatia and Davis spoke for the first time on March 10 and immediately began working together via Zoom and phone calls. Something clicked. Bhatia tied for 11th at the Texas Children’s Houston Open, then won the Valero, where he built a five-shot lead through 36 holes.

“I was talking to my psychologist last night,” Bhatia said Saturday night after a third-round 68 gave him a four-shot lead over Denny McCarthy. “Just all the stories that could happen. What if I lose this lead? What if this lead goes to 10? So many things are in your mind.”

His final-round 67 should have been enough, but McCarthy shot 63 – with birdies on the last seven holes – to force a playoff. With McCarthy in the water, Bhatia birdied the first extra hole, the par-5 18th. Davis, a psychiatrist and life coach to college athletes and NBA executives in Los Angeles, was watching from afar and marveling at his young client.

“We’ve gone zero to 60 in three weeks,” Davis said by phone Sunday night. “It’s pretty crazy.”

And now Davis, who told his wife he’d like to go to the Masters for his upcoming 45th birthday, will in fact be going to his first Masters this week. He’ll stay in a house with Elion, and this will mark the first time he and Bhatia have met in person.

“It’s just nuts,” Elion said of CAPE’s current run of victories.

Be that as it may, she is determined to stay focused on the two things that matter: the sanctity of her client relationships and better mental health for all.

At the start of the war between Israel and Palestine last October, she offered her services – pro bono for 12 months – to Israeli LPGA golfer Laetitia Beck and a Palestinian golf team that has relocated to Cairo. She knows how good she has it, so why not pay it forward?

Elion lives in Washington, D.C., with her husband, Rick, a family- and sports-medicine-physician, and their two golden doodles, Daisy and Charlie. She grew up in San Francisco playing soccer in Golden Gate Park, mixing in some basketball.

“I’ve always been an athlete,” she said, “but nothing serious.”

She wound up in Western Massachusetts for college, attending Amherst for pre-med, followed by Hampshire College for graduate work. She had moved to Washington, D.C., and started a practice when a friend referred her to a professional golfer to give marriage counseling. With a golfer as a client, she attended her first tournament on the PGA TOUR, where word travels fast. Phil Mickelson started working with her as well as Jimmy Walker.

One of her clients won a major for the first time in 1999. She stayed in the background. She has worked with players you know about and others whom she’s never mentioned, for it is delicate work and she keeps her mouth shut unless a client talks publicly about her first.

Elion and her husband have a daughter, Hana, 30, and a son, Noah, 28. They are helping her retire the “Stealth” nickname in the wake of a very noisy 2023 when the hits started early. Max Homa, who has spoken often and glowingly of Elion, won the Farmers Insurance Open and nearly won again two weeks later.

Then there’s Clark, a staggering talent whose temper used to get the best of him until he became her hardest-working client. He delved into the books ("The Obstacle is the Way” and “The Energy Bus”), did meditation, and got his first win at the Wells Fargo Championship. Then he won the U.S. Open, all of it shown in a moving episode of the second season of the Netflix docuseries “Full Swing” that also featured Elion.

Clark also won this season’s AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am and had back-to-back runner-up finishes to world No. 1 Scottie Scheffler at the Arnold Palmer Invitational presented by Mastercard and THE PLAYERS. Clark is now the No. 4 player in the world.

Wyndham Clark on surprising himself with new career accomplishments

However big CAPE gets, Elion, who listens to players’ press conferences to hear how they’re thinking, will not lack for testimonials. Clark was in his late teens when his mother, Lise, died of cancer. This led to rage issues he had never fully resolved, and when he finally did, with Elion by his side, it soon became apparent there was no stopping him.

“She has a great calmness and presence about her that just makes me calm and relaxed,” Clark said of Elion at the U.S. Open. “I'm just so glad that my caddie and agent in November (2022) said, ‘Hey, we've got this lady that we think you should work with.’

“I was a little reluctant to do it,” he continued, “and I'm just so glad that she was brought into my life, and what these honestly six months, it's crazy to see how much I've improved and how much she's helped me. I wouldn't have thought I'd be a major champion six, seven months ago.”

Elion is not one-size-fits-all therapy. It’s more complicated than that, as Clark intimated after being paired with the wildly popular Rickie Fowler, a friend and fellow Oklahoma State Cowboy, for the pressure-filled final round of the U.S. Open in Los Angeles.

“Julie told me, she goes, ‘Every time you hear someone chant ‘Rickie,’ think of your goals and get cocky and go show them who you are,’” Clark said. “I did that. It was like 100-plus times today I reminded myself of the goals.”

Those goals are situational and different for different players. As Homa told Golfweek last year, “There are a million different reasons to talk to her.”

Wyndham Clark’s news conference after winning the U.S. Open

Jaeger, who like Clark is a meditation advocate, told PGATOUR.COM just days before his breakthrough in Houston: “Some of her stuff is not as sport-specific as some other guys, but it kind of resonates with me.” Added his wife, Shelby, “She’s given him so much confidence, and he believes in her so much. I love her – she talks to both of us together sometimes.

“He’s so much more patient. He doesn’t get mad if he has a bad round or a bad day.”

The example of Bhatia at the Valero suggests that the Elion Effect can work even if she’s not personally and directly involved with the player, and that’s been the idea as she and her son Noah have built out CAPE. They want to make it a kind of one-stop shop for golf performance.

“Noah said, ‘Let’s see what we can do with this from a business perspective,’ which is his background,” Elion said. “He does the invoicing, the taxes, but we’re also building something. We’re hiring a body person, a nutritionist, a stats person.”

And, most crucially, a team of supporting therapists that will number more than three.

“Working on hiring a bunch more,” Elion texted last week before Bhatia’s victory.

She knows it’s her players who do the heavy lifting, her players who hit the shots, and they’re making it look easy. They won’t always. But whatever they do next, she’ll be there for it. She, Noah, Davis and the others are building the business through wins, losses, and the human struggle.

“The clients are the most important thing, and that I don’t mess that relationship up,” she said.

The ball sits stationary, and there’s so much to think about, so much to feel. The work continues.

‘It’s a blessing’: Comedian David Koechner brings comedy tour to Huntsville

HUNTSVILLE, Ala. ( WAFF ) - Actor and comedian David Koechner has had a career in show business that’s taken him all over the country.

But this weekend, the man best known for roles in The Office and Anchorman is experiencing Huntsville for the first time as part of his latest tour.

“Gorgeous,” Koechner said in an interview with WAFF 48 on Thursday. “I didn’t know there were mountains here. It’s great. And you know, we’re in the springtime. It’s green. It’s really nice. But at night, what you need to do is go out and enjoy yourself at a local comedy club. I’ve got six shows.”

Koechner takes the stage at Stand Up Live Thursday through Saturday . As part of his stop at the club, Koechner will also take part in an Office trivia event on Saturday afternoon.

“There’s trivia with the real Todd Packer [that’s] almost sold out,” Koechner said. “It’s entertainment. I’m here to entertain you and we’re going to make it happen.”

Koechner grew up in the Midwest with comedy influences like Monty Python, the Marx Brothers, and Abbott and Costello. He wasn’t always on the path to comedy stardom, originally majoring in political science at the University of Missouri.

“I was a poli sci major for three years,” Koechner said. “And then I just figured, ‘Oh, it’s a dirty business. And then poli sci, you’re either going to be a lawyer, professor, or work for a senator. I just lost my passion for that. I’m still passionate about politics, but that’s not what I wanted to do.”

Koechner honed his comedic skills while going through Second City in Chicago in the early 90s. It’s a time in his career that he looks back on with fondness.

“I met so many brilliant, fascinating people,” Koechner said. “I’d be on stage five nights a week. And so many amazing, fascinating people, and you’re doing live comedy, and it’s improvisation, which means you take either a phrase or a word or something like that. And then we did long form so you’re doing 45 minutes, just making it up. It was just thrilling.”

Koechner’s first big break was a stint on Saturday Night Live in the mid-1990s and then early film roles like 1998′s Dirty Work, a film directed by the late Bob Saget and starring the late Norm McDonald.

“Saget was such a beautiful man,” Koechner recalled. “A lovely human. Present and just appreciative. Gracious. Talented. Norm was immense. You look back and, ‘Wow, I got to know these people and work with them.”

Koechner would find bigger success in the 2000s with roles as Champ Kind in Anchorman, a movie that wasn’t a hit originally but found a huge audience on cable and DVD and later spawned a successful sequel.

“They dumped it in August. [It didn’t have] great advertising. I don’t think they knew they had,” Koechner recalled. “I thought this is the greatest thing I’ve ever been part of.”

Koechner’s most known role is Todd Packer on The Office. He landed the Packer role thanks to Steve Carrell, whom he had known since his Second City days.

“There was a British version of The Office. There’s a character on the British version of The Office called Finchy, who’s worse than Todd Packer. They were having trouble casting [the role] and I was actually out of town shooting a movie picture. And so Carell says to Greg Daniels, who I’d worked with before, why don’t we give it to Koechner? It was Steve’s recommendation.”

The Office ran for nine seasons and 201 episodes before ending in 2013. More than a decade after its last episode aired, the show remains immensely popular through re-runs and streaming.

“It keeps going, and it’s generational,” Koechner said. “And I know that every different generation reacts to it in different ways. So when they’re young, they come to it and they go, ‘Oh, I understand humor.’ And then they get along and go, ‘Oh, all adults are dumb. That’s what they enjoy.’ Then when they get to college, they think, ‘Oh, the workplace is not that intimidating, because those people exist.’ And then when they get in the workplace, you go, ‘Yeah, this is exactly like The Office. That’s my philosophy. I’m surprised no one’s done a doctoral thesis on it.”

In the years since The Office went off the air, Koechner has continued to find success, including a 38-episode run on The Goldbergs, a sitcom that ran for 10 seasons and 229 episodes before wrapping up in 2023. For Koechner, the secret of that show’s success was simple.

“Just good writing,” Koechner said. It makes it easy when it’s so well written.”

After a long career in show business, the 61-year-old Koechner has no regrets and still enjoys hitting the road and performing in front of fans.

“I love doing live shows,” Koechner said. “I get to perform, and it’s a blessing.”
