There are lots of options in the menu but most of them aren’t available, it’s expensive and the service isn’t the best one.

This Cold War Bunker was absolutely amazing. If you like history, thats your place. This bunker system was to be used by Stalin and built in the early 1950s. There is a replica atomic bomb. The Bunker is 18 floors down and after finish tour back up.. Read more » 18 but is well worth the effort. After your tour, go to the restaurant. If you go the restaurant then they will let you take the elevator back up. Excellent visit, highly recommend.

We had a tasty lunch in the diningroom 60 meters below street level, whilst listening to the rumbling metro above us. A wonderfull experience. No English guides though, and you can only do the tour with a guide at your side.

Moscow’s Bunker 42 was built in proximity to the Kremlin specifically as the fallout shelter for Joseph Stalin and the USSR government in the event of nuclear attack. For its last three decades it was used as a communication center for strategi.. Read more »c bombers, but in later years was deemed unfit for modern weaponry and declassified. Today it houses a museum, banquet halls, conference rooms, a restaurant and bar, and in stark contrast to the gravity of its former purpose, hosts children’s parties and weddings. Several tours are offered–some focus on Cold War artifacts, some aim to show what life was like during the Soviet era. You’ll see chemical protective suits, masks, Geiger counters, Soviet posters, and a special effects-imitation of a nuclear missile launch (probably not for the faint of heart).

A really unique and highly recommended experience.

The restaurant atmosphere was very cool and unique, food and drinks were a fair price for the situation and were tasty, also some high quality singing performed by a lady there during our meal.
The bunker personnel treat this place seriously giving stern warnings in areas where photos were not allowed, they treat this place with respect and try to guide tourists to do the same.
In short the visit was a unique and interesting experience that all different types of people will enjoy

Quite excited for this tour. However end up quite disappointed. They should know that mainly it is for tourist visit. They display some old items and play radio for us to have a feel of the old war days. But the atmosphere is not done proper plus eve.. Read more »rything is in russian which no one understands.
Gotten us to walk into a tunnel and locked the door for us to experience darkness and emergency due to bombing. However, its in russian again. Everyone of us just stand there not knowing what is going on. When the lights on, everyone is like 'ok finally its over'.
If can be translated into English, i believe that helps alot. Otherwise, the atmosphere need to be improved.

The Bunker itself was very interesting, tough the tour was shorter than in the description - a bit less, than an hour long. The guide did a great job emphasising the interesting details.

For the museum, take a student card if you have one, even a foreign one, as the price is almost half of that for adults.

Lovely food, decor and even live music! Rounding off the Bunker 42 tour with a fun 'Politburo' style meal was the way to go. I enjoyed it a lot!
