A little bit about us

The Russia Experience is one of the leading Global providers of trips on the Trans-Siberian Railway. We have been operating this iconic journey now for over twenty years and take bookings for travellers from all points of the globe. However we still remain a small  UK based team that offer in-depth knowledge and a personalised service. While on the ground we have long-established links with local agents, guides and hoteliers nurtured and developed over more than two decades.

We’ve helped television crews from both the BBC and ITV capture this amazing journey on film, and a wealth of experience enables us to keep these trips as captivating and engaging as befits one of the world’s great journeys.
