Business cards of Lake Baikal: Listvyanka, KBZHD, Olkhon

On the second day of the trip, we will ferry you across the Angara River so that you can become passengers of an elegant retro train at the port of Baikal.

A trip on a train of modern steam—powered wagons will be a real adventure at the end of the XIX — beginning of the XX century - the era when the Circum-Baikal Railway was built.

During the tour, we will take a detailed look at the resourceful architectural techniques of domestic and foreign masters. 

Exquisite Italian masonry of resistant retaining walls, perfect arches of tall stately viaducts and rounded galleries of long romantic tunnels. 

And in the places where man-made structures intertwine with the saturated Siberian nature, we will see a truly amazing spectacle of the harmonious coexistence of two worlds. 

We will arrive at the final destination of the excursion — Irkutsk railway station in the evening. 

After that, we will immediately go to the hotel. 

The sequence of the tour stages depends on the train schedule. 

The tour is possible in the form of a boat trip along the coastline. 

All the elements of the KBZHD are perfectly visible from the route, surrounded by lush vegetation and rocky cliffs.

In this case, the Listvyanka tour will take place on the second day.

WOW-impressions are waiting for you — today we will arrive at the famous Olkhon! 

We will start the day with breakfast at the hotel and operational fees, then we will take a transfer. 

There are several hours of driving ahead — relax and enjoy the gorgeous views outside the car window. 

Meanwhile, the guide will tell you about the history and natural features of the region, which is one of the ten largest in the country.

A mandatory stop will be a roadside cafe, we will try buuzi, the hallmark of Buryat cuisine. 

After the ferry crossing, we go to Khuzhir, the largest settlement on the island. 

In order not to waste time, after checking in at the hotel, we will explore the village, get acquainted with the details of the unusual life of the islanders.

And we will finish the tour with a loud landmark of Olkhon — Shamanka rock! 

The perfect combination of a noble silhouette against the background of waves and wonderful energy left by several generations of shamans.

The ancient "neighbors" of the rock are 13 sacred pillars of Serge, installed here so that the spirits can tie their steeds. 

Upon returning to the hotel, we will have dinner and relax before new adventures.

The fourth day of the tour is the maximum concentration of unimaginable panoramas, fascinating legends and streams of powerful energy. 

We will find all this at Cape Hoboy. 

After breakfast at the hotel, we will take seats in the cabin of the most reliable car in the local conditions — a highly passable UAZ. 

The road is quite bumpy, but wildlife and herds of freely grazing horses outside the window are a worthy compensation for the inconvenience.

The cape will welcome us with one of the most memorable views in the entire region — a panorama of the widest part of Lake Baikal. 

You will feel the full power of the oldest lake on the planet!

It is not surprising that in the past shamans chose Khoboi to perform their mysterious rituals. 

There is still magic in the air. 

For a full immersion effect, you will be served a picnic lunch in the fresh air.

On the way back, we will look at the picturesque cape Sagaan-Khushun to see the spectacular Three Brothers rock formation, and at the Sandy tract to walk along its magnificent dunes. 

We will return to the hotel for dinner.

A great vacation is not only an abundance of activities, but also time alone, so according to the program, a free day on the island! 

Enjoy a leisurely beach holiday on the golden sands of Sarai beach. 

Take a ride on the sapa and explore the Shamanka caves from the water side. 

Get acquainted with the exposition of the Khuzhir museum and try the colorful Baikal cuisine in one of the cafes. 

Outdoor enthusiasts can rent bicycles and arrange horse riding for an additional fee.

Or let our managers take care of you. 

At the stage of booking the tour, you will be told about an excursion to the southern part of Olkhon, a boat trip to Ogoy Island and a romantic evening route along the Small Sea. 

These days are at your disposal — we cannot insist, but in the evening we advise you to watch the unforgettable Olkhon sunset.

The largest island of the Baikal archipelago is one of the sunniest places in the world. 

Therefore, the sunsets and sunrises here deserve to be called high art, they are so amazing!

The final morning of the trip is to have breakfast at the hotel and say goodbye to Olkhon.

Then you will be taken to the ferry. 

A transfer to Irkutsk will be waiting on the mainland.

The road will pass without a guide so that you can relax in front of the plane and chat with other members of the group. 

After exploring summer Lake Baikal, guests always want to return and look at it in an icy guise.

Therefore, do not say goodbye, but see you soon on winter Lake Baikal!
