Trans-Siberian East-West: Vladivostok - Mongolia - Baikal - Yekaterinburg - Moscow (TS-30)

For those dreaming of the Trans-Siberian, this 21 day tour delivers something a little unusual – an epic east to west journey from Vladivostok to Moscow with a wonderful detour to Mongolia. This tour gives you the opportunity to explore Vladivostok’s maritime history, experience life with Mongolia’s nomads, relax beside beautiful Lake Baikal, learn about the Romanovs’ sad end at Yekaterinburg and, finally, alight in Moscow to visit the Kremlin and Red Square.

Day 1 - 2
Wednesday - Thursday - Vladivostok
Overnight Flight. Arrival in Vladivostok. Transfer to the Hotel
You’ll board your overnight flight this evening for the Russian port city of Vladivostok. Settle back in your seat as you fly across ten time zones, a reminder of the vast size of this enchanting country. On arrival in Vladivostok, you’ll be met by our representative for your transfer to the hotel.
Overnight: hotel
Day 3
Friday - Vladivostok
Vladivostok City Tour. Visit to the Submarine Museum. Departure to Irkutsk
This morning you’ll embark on a tour of the city of Vladivostok. Key sights include the century-old Vladivostok Fortress, whose construction was halted as a result of the First World War and the October Revolution, and the Monument to the Fighters for Soviet Power in the Far East. You’ll see the Intercession Church and Catholic Church. From the Korabelnaya Naberezhnaya (the Warship Embankment) you'll learn more about the history of the Russian Fleet. After a visit to the interesting Submarine Museum, where you’ll have the chance to board a Soviet C-56 submarine, we’ll take you to the train station to board a different mode of transport – your first train, bound for Ulan Ude.
Overnight: train
Day 4 - 5
Saturday - Sunday
Onboard
On average it’s a 66 hour journey from Vladivostok to Ulan Ude by train, giving you plenty of time to experience what it’s like to ride the fabled Trans-Siberian railway. Relax in your comfortable compartment as you watch the train eat up the miles. Take a walk to the restaurant car and socialise with your fellow passengers. Fetch a glass of tea made with hot water from the samovar from your provodnitsa, the carriage attendant who’ll look after you while you’re on board.

It was erected in 1970 to coincide with the centenary of Lenin’s birth. Later, transfer to the railway station where you’ll pick up your connection to Ulan Bator, the Mongolian capital.

Visitors can climb inside the horse upon which the formidable warrior Emperor sits, peering out from its head to take in the panoramic views across the Mongolian countryside. Moving on, we reach the gorgeous Alpine landscapes of Terelj National Park, famed for its granite rock formations. There, we will visit Turtle Rock and hike to Aryabal Monastery. There’ll be an opportunity to visit a nomad family so you can learn how to milk a cow and prepare dairy products.

We'll continue to Ganina Pit, an orthodox monastery constructed where the remains were originally interred and also visit seven wooden churches in the heart of a centuries-old pine forest.

Monday - Moscow
Kremlin & Armoury
Our final day of sightseeing will be spent inside the Kremlin. It's now the base of the Russian president but was once the Tsar's home. The cathedrals of the Kremlin will delight with their long history but it's the Armoury Museum that's the real treasure - quite literally, as it contains not only weaponry but also such exhibits as the chalice of Yuri Dolgorukiy, the helm and armour of Boris Godunov, collection of over fifty Faberge eggs, as well as golden and silver works of applied art by Russian, European and Oriental masters. Lastly today, we'll take a ride on the Moscow Underground, almost a museum in itself with eclectic decoration including marble, mosaic, stained glass and bronze sculpture.
