                <description><![CDATA[Peters walking tours in St Petersburg are fantastic - tour  guides are knowledgeable and friendly. They take you off the usual tourist  trail, visiting places that aren't in your guide book, visit local  cafes and use public transport to get about. These things all add to the  experience and give you something that most Brisitsh tourists wouldn't be able  to achieve for themselves. The tour guides tailor make the tour to suit  customers and give lots of historical and political information as well as  answering questions]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[I stayed at the Comrade hostel in Moscow last  April. It's a tiny hostel, but most of them are. I'm led to believe that hostels  need to pay fees to the Mafia, so people run really small places that look like  apartments with no signs outside. This is no exception and doesn't have a sign  outside, just a tiny hostelworld/bookers sticker on the door.  <br>The guy who runs the  place is incredibly helpful, however, and booked our train tickets for us - a  difficult feat for people who don't speak Russian and was happy to give advice.  He even took some of the other guests out for lunch and on a train journey day  trip. The place is clean, but basic, the real draw are the staff (really just  one guy - terribly I can't remember his name).<br>The location is  fantastic - about five minutes walk from Red Square.]]></description>
