The journey of a lifetime, the Trans-Mongolian railway stretches across 3 countries, passing through Mongolia and China as well as Russia. This trip is considered one of the greatest adventures in the world. Starting from vibrant, cosmopolitan Moscow, busy and magnificent, you make you way over the border between Europe and Asia, and deep into the heart of Siberia, a part of Russia that’s wild, untamed and immensely attractive for just that reason.. This is a unique opportunity to see how the landscape, nature and culture are all transformed as you leave Europe for Asia. After the Siberian forests and the endless steppe of Mongolia you’ll find yourself in China, exiting and mysterious, where ancient and modern traditions have blended to make something exotic and colourful. This journey of a lifetime is a wonderful chance to experience for yourself the real connection between the continents and the great cultures of the world.
