After lunch, if time permits, you will stalk the other major sites: Christ the Savior Cathedral and Patriarch's bridge with the panoramic views of the Kremlin, Peter the Great monument, Red October factory and Muzeon Park.
Or try a river cruise seeing it all from the boat and enjoying the breeze, water views and freedom!
