Olga

Good afternoon, I am a geographer by education and an accredited guide to Ryazan and the region. In addition to my main activities, I am fond of photography, aeronautical sports and perfumery. I will gladly make a joint photo, dedicate to the secrets of the festival “Sky of Russia” and reveal the story of the Max Factor Museum.

I have been conducting sightseeing and thematic excursion routes for 7 years. I easily find a common language with children, my excursions are easy and exciting. In my profession, I love talking to people the most. On my excursions, I not only give, but also discover something new for myself. I am interested in the reaction of guests to the city, their impressions, emotions. I know that people wait for months to travel, so my task is to make them as comfortable as possible and to encourage the desire to return to our glorious city.
