Sheremetyevo: AeroExpress train station
Hi,
I was in Moscow around 10 Days ago
& had a very bad experience withe the Taxi service I used.
I used "go-to.ru " to take me to shermetyevo airport but were almost 1hr late picking me up wich caused me to miss my flight. The whole ordeal cost me an extra 500 Euros.
I am goin back to Moscow & have booked two more taxi trips
with go-to.ru. I am Cancelling these & booking with another taxi.
I got a qoute from " taxopark " which is actually a little cheaper than got-to.ru But I just wanted to find out if anybody had used taxopark &before ? How was there service ? Were they Reliable ? etc
Regards,
Mani
I've been using "Formula taxi" (phone 777-5-777) last 4 years without any problem. check the site for the prices. as far as i remember it is possible to book taxi online and in English as well
What car are you interested in? actually they charge more from tourists, its not a secret. Its possible to rent something cheaper... about 30-50 dollars, its up to where you will stay.
tourists are charged much if they book taxi with help of the hotel... :-)
last time my friends booked taxi on-line or even just got taxi in the airport and the price was reasonable :-)
Shame what happened to "go-to.ru "
I had been going with them since 2003, they had always been very reliable. But last year I had the same trouble, the taxi was stuck in a traffic jam for over 1 hour.
Not their fault, I guess, and the driver had been in contact with me all the time; and I did make it to the flight, as I booked the car 4 hours in advance – the normal time for Moscow was 3 hours even in good old Soviet times.
But now I ride the train!
Can you imagine, they built this as a brand new cathedral in years 1992-2000...
On the same place used to be a swimming pool.
I recommend you to visit the Cathedral, I think I have never seen so much gold altogether at one place...which does not necessarily presume a tasteful interior. Anyway from outside the building looks magnificent.
Locks on the bridge leading to the Cathedral left mainly by couples in love as a symbol of their feelings.
The so called Stalin's Seven Sisters are a group of neoclassic Stalin-era buildings which were built in the 1950's and nowadays still dominate the skyline of Moscow.
The Seven Sisters are the Hotel Leningradskaya, the Hotel Ukraina, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Ministry of Transport, the Moscow State University (MGU) and the Block of Flats on Kotelnicheskaya enbankment and on Krasnaya Presnya.
There were even plans for an eighth sister, but the Palace of Soviets was never built.
Please also read my "Things to do tips" for more detailed information about some of the buildings.

This is one of the most beatiful and remarkable places in Moscow. Though, due to very severe weather of Moscow, it is opened for visitors for just very few days in the year. ;(
Nunnery was founded in 1524 by Vasily III. It was the place where the members of Tsar family's women lived by different reasons. The nunnery complex is one of the beautiful ones within the city. On the picture you see the main architectural building, Smolensky Cathedral that was built in XVI century and has icons of XVI-XVII centuries. In 1812 Patriotic War, French troops that stayed in the territory of nunnery, during their retreat, made an attempt to blow the nunnery but it was failed. Most of graves you can see on the territory date back to times of the beginning of XIX century. The monastery is on the UNESCO list. In Soviet times the nunnery was closed and museum was opened here. In spite of the nunnery was back to the church in 1994, it is still possible to see things of XIX century and icons and frecos of XVII-XIX centuries. The fee is RUR 80 (EUR 2.2) and extra fee for making photos on the territory, RUR 50 (EUR 1.4).
As much as in any European city that I have visited, Moscow seems to have a great appreciation for its public spaces. We constantly came across parks, squares and public spots that were filled with people. Young and old, men and women, everyone was relaxing. . .
If the weather allows, a nice way to relax and get a feel for the city is to simply find a bench, step, or spot on a lawn. Bring a drink, a snack or a book and just relax and enjoy your company and your surroundings, as the locals do.
