This 2-day adventure, starting from Moscow, will cover amazing locations that seem to have descended from the pages of history textbooks: the monumental Assumption Cathedral of the XII century in Vladimir, the legendary Church of the Intercession on the Nerl, the Suzdal Kremlin.
However, the dry facts from the school curriculum are canceled: your trip will be accompanied by lively and memorable stories from a professional guide.
In Vladimir, you can visit: the historical center, the Assumption and Dmitrovsky Cathedrals of the XII century, Bogolyubovo with an invaluable masterpiece of Russian architecture — the Church of the Intercession on the Nerl.
We will explore Suzdal in the company of a local guide.
This sightseeing program will be decorated with a visit to Kideksha, a pictoresque village where in ancient times the residence of Prince Yuri Dolgoruky, the founder of Moscow, was located.
Маршрут экскурсии
Day 1. Moscow. Kursky railway station — the city of Pokrov, Vladimir region
We meet at 9 a.m. at the Kursk railway station and leave by car for Vladimir. On the way, we will make a stop in the city of Pokrov and visit the unique Vvedensky Monastery, standing on an island in the middle of the lake. You will learn about the life of the monastery and hear stories about Elder Cleopas.
Pokrov — Vladimir
We will get to Vladimir around 12 o'clock and have lunch at the cozy restaurant "Russian Village". And then the guide will take a walking tour of the center: we will go to the Assumption Cathedral, built in the XII century, inspect the frescoes of Andrei Rublev. Let's take a walk through the ancient streets and look at the wonderful bas-reliefs of St. Dmitrievsky Cathedral.
Vladimir and Bogolyubovo
Then we will visit the ancient monasteries: Knyaginin and Rozhdestvensky, as well as the famous convent in Bogolyubovo, which still remembers Prince Andrei Bogolyubsky, the son of the founder of Moscow, Yuri Dolgoruky. You will learn the secret of his death, and you will also see where the last staircase he went down is located. After Bogolyubovo, the pearl of the Golden Ring awaits us — the Church of the Intercession on the Nerl. You will learn its history and interesting facts: in honor of what event the church was built, why it was almost dismantled in the XIX century, what material it was built of, and also how the guard gets here when the Nerl River floods. After our walk, we will return to Vladimir, have dinner and check into the hotel. You will have free time to walk around the evening city on your own or relax after a busy day.
Day 2. Vladimir — Suzdal
We gather, have breakfast and leave for Suzdal at 10 a.m. Despite the fact that the city is quite small, there are more than 50 churches and monasteries preserved here — the bulbs are visible from almost every point of the city! You will find out why there are so many of them here, hear local legends, walk through the cozy streets and visit the Museum of Wooden Architecture. If desired, you can climb the bell tower and ring the bells. And also buy Suzdal mead or a very unusual cucumber jam as a gift (in Suzdal, Cucumber Day is celebrated every year — the guide will definitely tell you where this tradition came from).
Kideksha
After that, we will have lunch and go to the village of Kideksha. In the XII century, the family of Prince Yuri Dolgoruky lived here. Let's look into the ancient temple of Boris and Gleb, admire the Russian expanses and, if we are lucky with the weather, we will visit the sites of ancient man — Sungir and Mzharsky burial ground. The guide will tell you about the work of archaeologists and who lived in these places 25 thousand years ago.
Return to Moscow
Having been charged with impressions and vivid emotions, we will return to Moscow along the new high-speed toll highway M-12. Changes and additions to the route are possible both on the initiative of the guide and at your request: this is an individual tour.

Выражаю благодарность за содержательный материал по экскурсу в наше прошлое. Было интересно узнать о прошлом и сегодняшнем дне Кремля, получить ответы на возникающие по ходу увиденного вопросы. Проходя вдоль каменных стен и многочисленных экспонатов гид дает возможность ярко, отчетливо представить исторических героев управлявших некогда Россией.
Были на экскурсии по ВДНХ с Павлом. Все понравилось, Павел отличный рассказчик, маршрут интересный, сама территория и история прекрасны и увлекательны. Рекомендуем
