Excursion by tram. Interesting routes with metropolitan attractions. Tram route A
I was walking down an unfamiliar street
And suddenly I heard a crow,
And the ringing of the lute, and distant thunder,
A tram was flying in front of me...
(N.S. Gumilyov)
We bring to your attention the only one in Moscow excursion route to public tram № 46. A warm, cozy, slightly ringing Moscow tram with a 100-year history will take you through interesting old Moscow towns that were once the outskirts of Moscow and even its Moscow region. We will travel by tram, look out of its large windows on the sides, go outside at the main excursion stops and walk the most interesting places between stops. The entire time waiting for the tram at stops will be filled with curious people stories about the history of public transport in Moscow.

Live music plays in the carriage and poetry performances are performed.
