Far East


The Russian Far East region borders the Pacific Ocean and the arctic region. With hilly landscapes and a spectacular Pacific coastline, this region is very different from the rest of Russia....

It will take you quite a while if you want to see it all, but any time you spend there will not disappoint you. Discovering the city of Vladivostok (the eastern terminus of the Trans-Siberian railway), hopping from one island to the next one in the Kuril islands, wandeling across the Kamchatka National Park, cruising along the coast of Chukotka, observing the wildlife paradise of Yakutia...are just some activities that you will have the opportunity to do there.
