Tour description

Just drive around the Lake Baikal in 5 days? It is unrealistic to say in the summer. But in the winter – go ahead! What is more, you will have spare time on beautiful thermal spas!

Traveling on the Baikal ice is not as scary as it seems - especially with experienced guides. The ice at this season is so solid, that you could even travel by tank . Crossing the lake on ice is possible to reduce the distance and travel time. You will see the beauty of those places that you will not reach even in the summer by boat; feel the power of the northern mountains; visit fabulous pieces that are created by the nature of the frozen pair of hot springs; admire sparkling stars, lying in hot mineral water.

This is possible only once a year - do not miss this unique opportunity!
