How often does the train go? I also have a question about Lake Baikal. I am living in South Korea right now and would like to visit this lake by plane. If I'm coming from Seoul, do you know the closest Russian city I can fly into to get to Lake Baikal? Please write me back with any information you may have. Thank you!

Trains leave every second day. 2. Been a while so I can't answer and the price is subject to seasonal change 3. No. You must have tickets for seperate "legs". ie Vlad-Irk on Trans-sib, then a ticket for Irk-Wherever until you get where you want to go. S7 is Sibir Airlines FYI. They have a website. Irkustk is the closest. Some 70 klm's away from the Lake itself. HTH Usualsuspect
