The Super Trans-Sib

TS.05

 
Reverse Itinerary Available

Our MD’s favourite itinerary, this features hiking/rafting/sightseeing options in the Urals mountains and two completely contrasted looks at Siberia – plus Mongolia too! At Lake Baikal there’s village life, whereas at Ulan-Uday there’s the Buddhist Asiatic heritage of Siberia.

A three-day stay in Mongolia completes the trip. Operates year-round (the Mongolian Ger-Camp runs even in winter – although without the showers).
