Trans Siberian
The Trans-Siberian is the most famous rail journey in the world, and
rightly so! Crossing 5 time zones and stretching from Moscow or St Petersburg, across The
Urals, the Altai Mountains, through Siberia, over the Great Wall of China and
through China into Beijing the trans siberian train journey really is a mammoth rail trip.
Trans Siberian tickets
The Trans-Sib is actually a rail route - not one specific trans siberian train and you will probably
travel on many different trains when you go - Russian Trans Siberian, Mongolian Trans Siberian and Chinese trains.
The best times to travel on the Trans Siberian train are from April to September.
October tends to be the rainy season and November to March is winter. Although most people
do travel in the summer months more and more are wanting to experience
Siberia in winter time. The cost of trans siberian train tickets do not change with the
seasons but your flights to Moscow and Beijing will.
