Trans-Siberian Train

transsiberian

Talk to any traveller worth anything, and the Trans-Siberian/Mongolian railway is either something they have done, or something very much on their to do list. An iconic travel adventure that is not only the best train journey on earth, but arguably one of the best of any trips possible. Every November YPT arrange our Eurasian Adventure Tour, but aside from that we are now pleased to announce our ability to offer tickets originating in China for this adventure.

Our prices are some of the cheapest available as we are based in Beijing, and charge a very small service fee. Prices are fully inclusive, and will be hand delivered to you in Beijing with an information pack on taking the train, with our YPT delivery guide being happy to answer any questions you might have about the trip.

Prices are quoted in Chinese CNY, but can be paid in the currency of your choice at the daily exchange rate.
