Mongolia and the Russian Far East

Arrive at Ulaan Baatar airport, where you will be transferred to a central hotel in this intriguing city. Enjoy a welcome reception dinner in a city restaurant giving you the opportunity to meet your fellow travellers.

Passing the monument to Genghis Khan we visit the National Museum in Ulaan Baatar where we explore Mongolia's fascinating history. Lunch is taken Mongol style, in a traditional Ger (Yurt) restaurant where we experience an authentic meal and local entertainment. In the afternoon there is the option to drive through Gorkhi-Terelj National Park before we board the Golden Eagle. After settling into our cabins, we enjoy dinner in one of the beautifully designed restaurant cars.

Enjoy a leisurely pace today as we cross into Russia travel through the beautiful landscape of this vast and varied country. You may like to attend one of the interesting lectures or Russian language lessons.

It is the perfect opportunity to relax as our journey today follows the Shilka and Amur rivers, close to the Chinese border. Enjoy Russia at its most dramatic and remote, as the Golden Eagle eats up the miles on our way to Vladivostok.

We spend our last full day on board the Golden Eagle today as the most easterly point of our journey is reached passing through Khabarovsk, where we cross the River Amur. Tonight, we enjoy our final dinner onboard.

Today we arrive in Vladivostok, a military port on the western shores of the Sea of Japan and the final destination on the Trans-Siberian line.  This once ‘closed’ Russian town now offers visitors an exciting opportunity to explore its principal military attractions including a restored submarine  before we transfer to the centrally located four-star Hotel Hyundai. The final evening is spent saying our goodbyes to our fellow travelling companions at the Farewell Dinner.

Following breakfast you will be transferred to Vladivostok airport to begin your journey home.
