    Walter, Canada, September 2024: Safe and friendly to all

    Of all my journeys and travels, the Trans-Siberian tour will remain the most impressive experience on my list.

    Not only because I saw the pearls of European architecture in the form of the palaces of St. Petersburg, or because I could watch this former Russian capital traveling around the city through its numerous canals, or because I could walk on the cobblestones of the famous Red Square or through the halls of Tretyakov Gallery in Moscow, but also because I could witness the vastness of Siberia, its untouched nature and wet my feet in shrouded in many legends and mysteries - Baikal Lake.

    For those who have decided to jump on this train, I encourage you to take it all the way to Vladivostok, a beautiful European city at the at the end of the Asian continent. All this under guidance and help from Discover Russia competent employees, knowledgeable tour guides and friendly train staff, trying to make our journey as pleasant and comfortable as possible. Well deserved Five Stars for all involved in organizing this adventure

    Mary & Jeff, Australia: A GREAT TRAIN TRIP

    My wife and I have just recently completed a train trip through Russia, Mongolia to China organised by Discoveryrussia.

    This trip started in Moscow and ended in Beijing with stops in Ekaterinburg, Krasnoyarsk, Irkutsk, Ulan-Bator. At all our train stops we were met with friendly drivers and guides who escorted us to our hotels. We were impressed by our guides with their extensive local knowledge which made this trip so enjoyable and also their compassion given to two 80yr travellers. On our return home to Australia we have praised Discoveryrussia to our friends.
