Check which airport your flight departs from and plan the transfer in advance.

What to see in Moscow in 2 days?

In 2 days it is worth visiting: Red Square and the Kremlin, St Basil's Cathedral, the Tretyakov Gallery and Zaryadye Park with the floating bridge, and strolling along the Arbat and the Patriarch's Ponds. In the evening - the Bolshoi Theatre or an observation deck with a panoramic view.

What transport is best for the trip from the airport to the city?

The best option is the Aeroexpress: fast, comfortable and predictable in time. From Sheremetyevo - to Belorussky station, from Domodedovo - to Paveletsky, from Vnukovo - to Kievsky. A taxi is convenient if you have a lot of luggage or are travelling as a group of three or four, but the travel time depends on traffic. The metro is the cheapest option, but with transfers and luggage it is less convenient.
