RUSSIAN travel experts Beyond Travel have introduced a new brochure to their collection, specialising in independent rail packages to assist you in creating your dream legendary rail journey including Trans-Mongolian, Trans-Siberian and the Silk Road.
The new packages will help Australian travellers build their own rail holiday with the help of expert staff to advise on how to create a package that works logistically and includes all your holiday ambitions.
A typical sample package is the Trans-Mongolian 12-day itinerary which can cost less than $2000 per person during peak summer season. It travels from Beijing to Moscow, with ample leisure time in Beijing, Ulaan Baatar, Irkutsk and Moscow. There is also the option of an add-on sight-seeing package from $240 per person with city tours in each of the previously mentioned cities.
Priced from $1995 per person twin share, it includes all second class rail tickets, three star hotel accommodation with daily breakfast and railway station transfers.
Travellers can also add separate packages to extend their trip such as the six-day Ger Stays and Wild Horses tour from $1135 per person which includes stays on the Mongolian steppes in a ger which is a herder's family home and most important possession, plus wild horse watching and a visit to the ancient capital of Karakorum. The price is inclusive of accommodation and most meals, sight-seeing with a private guide, delivery of rail tickets and services of a local representative.
