I keep meaning to write and express my pleasure with all your arrangements. The guide was totally wonderful and the selection of destinations each day was well thought out. I would recommend your services with no reservations. All the best, Wayne Benoit - Wayne Benoit -

Dear Alex, I wanted to tell you how much I enjoyed my trip to Russia. I learned so much about the history of Russia and the Russian people. Your agency has put together a trip that I would recommend to anyone. The knowledge, information and insights into the Russian culture by the tour guides (Olga in Moscow) and Maria (Novgorod and St. Petersburg) made this trip such a special experience that I will never forget it. This trip far exceeded my expectations. - Jo Ann -

Dear Dora, Sorry I haven't written sooner to tell you what a fantastic time we had on the Three Capitals tour to Kiev, Moscow and St. Petersburg. Thank you for all your help and patience in organizing a wonderful tour for us. It was exceptionally well planned and we thoroughly enjoyed it. Everything went very smoothly and the guides were extremely knowledgeable, helpful and always prompt. The hotels were very nice and it was good of you to move us to the Marriot Hotel in St. Petersburg. It was a little more out of the way but it had a shuttle bus into town and had a safe in the room and other modern conveniences that we did not have at the Asteria. The Churches, Cathedrals, Palaces, Metro in Moscow and Museums, especially the Hermitage were magnificent and it was such a special feeling to be in the famous Red Square. Also, we were surprised to find how modern 'downtown' Moscow and St. Petersburg are and how friendly and helpful the Russian people were in both cities. The train from Moscow to St. Petersburg was a pleasant surprise. Very comfortable, modern, clean and they even served 3 choices of breakfast in the morning. I will definitely recommend the Three Capitals tour and East-West Tours to my friends. And, when I decide to go back to Russia again, will most certainly go with your company. Thank you again. Best regards, Mary - Mary -

Masha Larry and I are home again and I wanted to thank you for the wonderful evening we spent with your family. We enjoyed it very much and I have told many people how good your dinner was. You were all very gracious to us and we appreciated your kindness very, verymuch. You made us feel very welcome. If any of you are ever in Denver, please let us know and let us return the hospitality. If you have time, I would like your recipe for your Borsch. I have attached a copy of the picture we took. Thank you again. Jeanette DeLashmit - Jeanette DeLashmit -

Hi Dora, This email has been a long time coming, since my trip was back in May. I THOROUGHLY enjoyed my trip to Russia. I wanted other travelers who are planning to travel on their own to know that even though I was travelling on my own, I felt safe and extremely well taken care of by the tour guides in both Moscow and St. Petersburg. The Meridien in Moscow was a great hotel and the perfect spot for seeing the military parade on Victory Day since the roads are closed and the parade goes right past the hotel into Red Square. There were so many celebrations on the streets that day; it was great way to spend my first full day in Russia. We were able to get a last minute ticket to the Bolshoi ballet which I attended before taking the night train to St P. I loved St. Petersburg with all its history and Maria as a tour guide full of every kind of story. The Radisson in St P was also a very nice hotel on the main street, which made it easy for me to navigate my way when shopping or looking for local restaurants. Thanks for your support - Karen Dyck -

They were very clean, with good breakfast, and helpful staff. The train ride was very smooth and a great experience. The train was beautiful, clean and the amenities were well planned. Other than the hotel in Suzdal, everything about the tour was wonderful. We will highly recommend the trip and East West Tours to our friends. F.T. & Dorinda Frick - F.T. & Dorinda Frick -
