Vodkatrain - Trans-Siberian railway
Vodkatrain takes the traditional ideas of group travel (regimented meal times, enforced sightseeing and following strange people holding flags aloft) and gives them a hearty kick up the backside. We prefer to think of it as a collection of young, like-minded individuals who happen to be following the same itinerary of the Trans Siberian / Mongolian Railway.
There are a wide range of trips throughout Asia including the most famous train journey in the world - the Trans-Siberian express.
Vodkatrain is your support network - providing accommodation, transport, transfers en-route and local Honchos to help you get the most out of your stay. You decide what you want to see, you decide what you want to eat, you decide what you want to experience and you pay the much cheaper local price for everything you do. Whatever your destination it's an unforgettable hassle free journey, with people you can have fun with.

15 days - Beijing to Moscow or vice versa For those short on time but still wanting an overland experience - the Genghis Khan offers a slightly quicker Trans-Mongolian experience that isn't rushed and still offers the magic of a traditional Mongolian Ger stay. |
