During our trip, a few Russians we met asked if we were there on business (no) and then asked if were studying there (no). When we explained that we were tourists we got a lot of amused looks!

I hope to add my reivew of the DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel Kazan later this week.

Thats a trip and a half

My wife comes from small village near Vologda, inbetween Mosocw and St P. Was interesting first time I went, even in Vologda a large city, it was unsual to see "tourist"
I did wonder why Hilton opened in Perm and Tyumen but Gas and Oil means money

Thanks for thee reviews!
