The Trans-Siberia Railway
Once hailed as ‘the fairest jewel in the crown of the Tsars,’ the Trans-Siberian Railway remains one of life’s great travel experiences. Spanning seven time zones and some of Russia’s most geographically challenging, yet resource rich and scenically splendid regions, the railroad represents a triumph of man over nature. The classic journey links Moscow – Russia’s awe inspiring capital of the Kremlin and Red Square, Stalinist skyscrapers, and oil billionaires – with the stunning port of Vladivostok on the edge of the Pacific, 9288km away.
For centuries the world has wondered what to believe about Russia. The country has been reported variously as a land of unbelievable riches and indescribable poverty, cruel tyrants and great minds, generous hospitality and meddlesome bureaucracy, beautiful ballets and industrial monstrosities, pious faith and unbridled hedonism. These eternal Russian truths coexist in equally diverse landscapes of icy tundra and sun-kissed beaches, dense silver birch and fir forests and deep and mysterious lakes, snow-capped mountains and swaying grasslands – those famous steppes. Factor in ancient fortresses, luxurious palaces, swirly spired churches and lost-in-time wooden villages and you’ll begin to see why Russia is simply amazing.
This July, come discover with us the beauty of Russia's vast geographical distances by the Trans-Siberian train which reaches from the very heart of the Russian capital, past cities filled with awe-inspiring architecture and rural villages scattered through the vast forests of Siberia, explore the magnificent trails of Baikal and on to the de facto capital of Eastern Siberia, pleasantly historic Irkutsk.

Main Highlights: St. Petersburg
Moscow
Irkutsk City Great Baikal Trail Hiking |
St Petersburg
So, you are finally at St Petersburg; the City of White Nights is a place known for its rich culture and several waterways of the city.
Moyka River
Once you feel fully rested and relaxed, you must begin with your adventure from a walk along the Moyka River.
Located in the heart of St. Petersburg, Moyka River will take you to one of the most popular canals in the city. Flowing from the Fontanka River near the summer Garden, the river is connected with the Neva River. While you walk along the river, enjoy masterpiece-like architectural buildings and the bridges as well. Undoubtedly, the walk will boost your desperation to see more of St Petersburg.
Bird's eye view of St. Petersburg
Seeing the whole city with the bird's eye is what needs to be your next thing to do in St Petersburg. The guided tours climb to the top of an Art Nouveau building at Ligovsky Prospect 65. Climb a six-storey building and you'll witness the beauty of the city to the fullest. The skyline and the architectural gems all around you will make your visit an immensely beautiful experience in St Petersburg.
Historical centre route
The routes all around the city-wide open your way to pass through parks, embankments, and bridges. The best advice one could give you about this activity is to go for a bicycle ride! The main attractions of the city can be seen through the 15km route most favourable for cycling.
Now the next important thing you can't resist is shopping! The designer labels, Russian souvenirs, electronics or beauty products, you can find them all! If you want something non-stream them the good news is St Petersburg is full of such shopping malls and outlets you can visit and chill out at the same time.
St. Petersburg Stadium
Your next famous destination in Saint Petersburg is Krestovsky stadium. It was built at the site of the former Kirov Stadium. You will see that the design of this place resembles the form of a spaceship with the roof held up by four masts which is quite an interesting part of visiting this place. The stadium is located on the western tip of Krestovsky Island which is in the north-western part of St. Petersburg.
St. Petersburg to Moscow
As you depart from St. Petersburg at 22:29, Moscow is your next destination

These accessible development zones are hundreds of meters long. For almost three centuries, the old abandoned mine was a source of stone and now is a place visited by many tourists. Ruskeala Mountain Park is filled with the purest emerald green water framed by slightly inclined and steep rocks.
