Tours Lake Baikal Tours  Along the Shamans roads

During four-day trip to the world's deepest lake you will be able to see Irkutsk - the oldest city in Siberia - plus Olkhon - the largest island in Lake Baikal. Olkhon is one of the symbols of Baikal and the only inhabited island in the lake. Next to the island is the lake’s deepest point of 1642 metres. The 71km-long island offers tourists a wide range of landscapes - steppe, sandy beaches with dunes, thick forests, rocky shorelines and even its own lake. It is also one of the centres of the shamanistic religion with many sacred places. As the island is rather far from Irkutsk, this trip involves two long transfers by car, although you will see beautiful parts of the Irkutsk Region out of the window.

On the tour you will not be accompanied by a guide when travelling, but a local guide will meet you to take you on excursions. If you wish, for an additional cost, we can arrange for a guide to accompany you throughout the whole trip.
