Best of Trans-Siberian: Moscow - Yekaterinburg - Irkutsk - Baikal - Vladivostok (TS-04)
 |
|
When the longest railway in the world was first opened at the end of the nineteenth century, it was considered a miracle. The railway connected up the enormous Russian Empire from East to West , giving travellers the chance to reach the Pacific by crossing 8 time zones and the vast spaces of the world’s largest country. Today it is still the longest and most amazing rail journey; you feel as if you’re travelling back in time. From mighty, cosmopolitan Moscow we go to the city of Yekaterinburg where the family of the last Tzar was murdered by the Bolsheviks; and then deep into the heart of the vast, mysterious land of Siberia, where the deepest lake on Earth, Baikal is located. You’ll see how enormous Russia is, what different people live there, how varied nature, wildlife and climate can be within one country. This exciting and challenging voyage is the perfect treat for anyone looking for a discovery holiday; you’ll see different ways of life and experience the unforgettable feeling that the Earth is truly endless. The memories of this journey will stay with you forever!
