Tour highlights

Tazheran ecstasy
Kilometers of open space, picturesquely decorated with rocky outcrops. Landscapes are transported to some kind of alien reality!
Places of power
We will stay at an energetically strong location — Cape Burkhan, Shamanka Rock. There are incredible sunsets here — the rays of the setting sun color the waters of Lake Baikal with burning shades
The Mystical Guardian of Lake Baikal
Let's see with our own eyes the impressive sculpture "Keeper of Lake Baikal" by Dasha Namdakov. It looks extraordinary and authentic
By boat on the Small Sea
We will visit incredibly picturesque places and a number of islands of the Small Sea, each of which has its own history. They are also called sources of spiritual energy
