This is for Michail Ternovoy, the driver we had during our last trip to Moscow end of October 2009:

Michail was very pleasant and easy to communicate with; very good English and excellent driving skills. He has a good decent car well equipped with GPS. Michail was punctual and reliable for pick up and meetings. Very good geographical knowledge about Moscow city centre and surroundings. I highly recommend him for future taxi service and guide.

Hi Paul,
My name is Andrey, 31 years old, live in northwest Moscow [close to SVO]. Drive more than 12 years in Moscow. Savely [spelling and style are not corrected to give you the idea of the communication level of your guide/driver]. Have great experience of repeated tours into Europe by car. Prefer Japan technics. Toyota vans fan. My 'Alph' deliver a company up to 7 person into any place of Moscow or other faraway center of culture and tourism promptly and very comfortably. Love night Moscow. Love long-distance trip. Hate to be late. So, hour rate is 25$. Airport events about 80 $.(contributions not to be forgotten) But everiything [spelling and style are left intact] is changeable in this mad, mad, mad world. Ready for collaboration. mobile +7 916 6751072 andreykatkov@mail.ru

From my mailbox:

Dear Andrey,

I am pleased to give you my feedback as a reference for your service as a driver in Moscow end of August 2009.

Andrey is a very cultivated person with excellent traits, always on time, he rather waits 30 minutes for the customer then being late! His car is very a very nice and spacey 7 Seat Toyota Minivan with all amenities such as A/C front and back . His cost is very reasonable. English Language skills as well as general educational background are excellent especially since Andrey traveled for his real work in Europe to many cities. You will hardly find a better driver where the over all package will please you more! Consider a nice tip!

If any questions email me at gheinzel@hotmail.com Geoffrey

Thanks again!

Hi Paul, just a note about the driver you recommended.

We've had Andrey drive us on a few occasions now. In town and to/from train station.
He has always been prompt to respond; on time; and has very good prices.
His English is good, and he seems to want to better it and tries hard.
Most importantly, since I travel often without my husband, I found him trustworthy
and felt safe at all times with him.
In addition, he is a personable and interesting young man.
We will definitely continue to use his services whenever we need a driver, if he is available.
Regards,
Corrine Engelmann,
expat Canadian, living in Moscow

I'm Alex Mozolev, a resident of Moscow with excellent knowledge of my region. My main job is IT. My English is not fluent, but we'll understand each other. I asked Pasha to be put on his famous list not only to make a few roubles to upkeep my vehicle but also to have a chance to practice my English. Or, if you are here to study Russian, I'll be happy to be of assistance too. My vehicle is Mitsubishi Delica. It comfortably fits 6 passengers and goes over just about any terrain. At the same time it is small and maneuverable enough for Moscow traffic. So I can get you from airport to city core and to Pasha's wild-rural dacha with same ease. I can be reached at phone +7-910-472-41-85 (don't speak English too fast) or email me . If you write, expect to hear from me within 24 hours. In addition to driving I can be of assistance with some outdoor experience (backcountry trekking, kayaking, snow-kiting and so on). At present I can serve you mostly in the evenings and week-ends, but it depends.

More info and client feedback

Slava lives in the North end of Moscow, 20 minutes from the Sheremetyevo airport. Positive, cheerful, and helpful, he is particularly recommended for the anxious first-time traveller to Russia. His rate are pretty much standard: $60 for Sheremetyevo, $60 for Domodedovo, $100 between the two airports (valid as of summer 2007).

Here Slava's car is shown just back from a trip to Sergiev Posad. Normally, his vehicle is clean and inviting.

Contact Slava by calling 8-495-456-1155 (home, shown as dialed from within Russia outside of Moscow), 456-1155 (from Moscow city phones) or 8-916-691-0892 (from Russian-registered mobile). Good English.

Another one of Marina's friends. Andrey stands out for his old fashioned "Soviet" attitude, i.e. reliable and shy about taking money from his clients. Able to work any time of day and night, will accept any reasonable price, happy to go anywhere. Professional driver, safe and reliable. No English, save situation as with Sasha, so call Marina at 775-9776. Passable Enlish.
