They said after their experience with us

We never expected that Greek mythology could become alive during a tour of Naxos Town. Our guide Katia and her interactive approach exceeded our expectations. All the mythology we read during our vacations in Greece suddenly got a meaning. We highly recommend this tour.

Marcia & George S.

We truly enjoyed Naxos Town Food Tour tour. Besides the amazing food stops and cultural insiders it was also an excellent orientation tour upon our arrival to Naxos. Our guide explained everything and gave us ideas for the rest of our stay in Naxos.

Outstanding Naxos Town Mythology tour! Very knowledgeable guide and excellent tour pacing. She kept a nice balance between all the different age groups within the group.

We are foodies and we were looking for some special service which could offer help with meeting and understanding real Russian cuisine. Eat is Moscow made it come true. Thanks!

I had a great time on the tour, I was extremely full by the end of the tour, the selections were very good I thought and Leo was a great guide. I was pleased to see some of the local parts of town.

Is was a very nice experience to eat with Alexander and his wife. The Russian food was good. And the explanation was very interesting. I enjoyed the evening fully and i wish Alexander and his wife all the best for the future!!!

Traditional Russian cuisine tour was great – food was delicious and the tour guide was able to throw in some history and neighbourhood references.

The benefit of a private guide is that he can tailor the experience to exactly what you want to see and take you to all local spots you won’t find on tripadvisor. Our guide was able to show us real Moscow!

Africa: Key Points From Lavrov's African Tour

Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov recently concluded his latest tour of Africa, visiting four countries in two regions of a continent where Western governments have expressed concern about their declining influence in recent years.

The top diplomat began his trip last week on Monday, first stopping in Guinea before moving on to the Republic of the Congo, Burkina Faso, and finally Chad on Wednesday.

What was the purpose of the tour?

Lavrov's trip was aimed at assessing the growth in relations between the countries he visited and Moscow, as well as engaging in fresh negotiations he described as "mutually beneficial".

Last summer, at the second Russia-Africa Summit in St Petersburg, Moscow pledged to strengthen ties with African countries and signed a number of agreements, including on defence cooperation, food security, education and research.

During his meetings with officials on his tour, Lavrov reiterated the Russian government's commitment to fulfilling these promises, according to statements released by the Foreign Ministry.

Guinea talks

The Russian foreign minister arrived in Guinea early on Monday, marking his first visit to the West African nation since 2013.

He was welcomed to the capital, Conakry, by transitional president Mamadi Doumbouya, who has ruled the country since taking power in a coup in 2021.

The Guinean leader denounced attempts by Western powers such as the US and France to intervene in Africa's political challenges as racist and condescending.

Lavrov and his Guinean counterpart, Morissada Kouyate, discussed a variety of issues and agreed for the two countries to collaborate on projects involving geological research, the development of mineral deposits, and health, according to Moscow's Foreign Ministry.

Defence ties with the Congo

Late on Monday, Lavrov arrived in the Republic of the Congo, with talks focused on defence cooperation and ending the Ukraine conflict.

The following day, during a press conference in Oyo, a city about 400km north of Brazzaville, Lavrov announced that Russia and the Congo would continue their intensive military and military-technical collaboration in the interest of "Congo's defence capabilities."

The Congo's arsenal includes Soviet- and Russian-made weapons such as armoured vehicles, rocket artillery and helicopters.

In May 2019, the Russian and Congolese defence ministries signed a contract to send Russian military specialists to the Congo to train and assist the Congolese army in the operation, maintenance, and repair of previously supplied military equipment and special assets.

Lavrov last visited the Central African state in July 2022, when Moscow and Brazzaville explored expanding collaboration in the sectors of energy and mineral resources, along with infrastructure development.

On Tuesday, the top Russian diplomat and his Congolese counterpart, Jean-Claude Gakosso, called for a peace plan for the Ukraine conflict that would include talks between the two main parties involved.

"It seems to me that those who send arms to Ukraine are not advocates of peace. Quite the opposite; they are those who challenge humanity, literally pushing us towards a worldwide conflict," Gakosso stated.

Lavrov also commended the Congolese president, Denis Sassou Nguesso, for maintaining a "balanced" stance on Russia's military actions in Ukraine.

Lavrov assesses relations with key Sahel state

On Tuesday night, the minister arrived in Burkina Faso for his first visit in the history of Moscow-Ouagadougou relations. He met with Ibrahim Traore, the West African nation's interim president, as well as Burkinabe Foreign Minister Karamoko Jean Marie Traore.

According to the Russian Foreign Ministry, the parties agreed to increase their already "strong" bilateral partnership in various sectors, with a focus on expanding cooperation in trade, economics, and humanitarian aid.

Lavrov commended the Sahel state for being the first to allow Moscow to reopen its embassy as part of Russia's policy of revitalising diplomatic missions in African countries.

The mission, which had been closed since 1992, resumed operations last December following an agreement reached at the second Russia-Africa summit by interim leader Traore and President Vladimir Putin.

Burkina Faso is one of several former French colonies on the continent that have cut military ties with France in recent years and turned to Moscow for help combating terrorism in the Sahel.
