Trans-Siberian, -Mongolian and -Manchurian Train Journeys   Real Russia do not have standard fixed high prices like other agencies. We get the best price for your tickets at the time you order them based on the train requested, season of travel, current ticket price, foreign exchange rates and if we can obtain the cheaper international tariff for your journey.   However, to give you an indication of the prices you can expect to pay, we have created this page with the most popular routes.
