Why advertise in the Russian Guide to London?

Over 138,000 Russians visited the UK in 2003, 63% of them went to London, 30% of them businessmen. In 2004 that number increased by 28%.

If your business would benefit from attracting Russian speaking residents and tourists the Russian Guide to London is the most cost effective way of letting them know what you have to offer.

The Russian Guide to London covers all of London's traditional tourist attractions plus accommodation, sporting & cultural events, night life, transport etc. Additionally, unlike other guides, it has been written by Russians to cater specifically to Russian tastes, focusing on such things as the short courses available in London's English language schools and the vast variety of cuisines. In terms of shopping fur & jewellery outlets are particularly popular! As are museums and watching premiere league football.

Starting from 2005 edition, the guide will be enhanced with Russian Britain Directory.

Distribution - 40,000 copies

Over 20,000 copies of our last edition were distributed across the UK and CIS. This will double for the new expanded 2005 version. Organisations  circulating our guide include: Russian & CIS airlines, such as Ukrainian Airlines; top Moscow tour operators specialising in UK trips; British Council offices in Russia & CIS, Anglo-Russian business associations, the Russian Embassy in London; various hotels & Tourist Info Centres; organisers of trade fairs & exhibitions; UK companies entertaining Russian clients; English language schools.

The vast majority of Russian visitors spent most of their time, and money, in London, (over £159 million in 2003 according to Visit Britain estimates, and that doesn't include Chelsea football club!)
