How far is Moscow?
Moscow is not so far from Europe. It’ll take you only a few hours to get from London, Paris or any other European capitals. A Moscow city break can be easily included in your European trip itinerary.

Is it expensive?
Moscow is not a common Cheap City Breaks destination. It is often voted as one of the most expensive cities in the world. But this is not always true. A budget hotel will cost you around 80 EUR per night; a dorm bed in hostel can be only 12 EUR, a meal in a local restaurant can be under 10 EUR.
