Flexible Group Tours, Rail Journeys & Tailor-made Holidays

On the Go is raring to go with Russian tours that will take your breath away!

Small groups with local tour leaders will ensure you get to see the highlights of this opulent and exotic land whether you are interested in the arts, gardens, cruises, culture, history, architecture...

There are other tours to choose from, apart from the established group tours. Spend Christmas and New Year in Russia's magical winter wonderland, or add an interesting Bolt-On Adventure to your itinerary to make it totally unique. Take a train journey, from Beijing, if you like, all the way to Moscow, on a Trans-Siberian adventure, which is not a group tour, but your own private tour, on your own or with your own group, with assistance at each stop along the way.

This experienced international team has travelled extensively throughout Russia and along the Trans-Siberian rail route. Their first hand knowledge enables On the Go to run professional tours that cater to the needs of all.

Russia is a destination that offers year-round appeal. Summer is a drawcard for many travellers; Russia positively blooms in spring and summer. The snow melts to reveal beautiful flowers and manicured lawns at many of Russia's most famous palaces, parks and gardens.

In Russia, On the Go has taken great lengths to locate the best quality hotels at realistic prices in each of the cities you'll travel to. All the hotels are clean, comfortable and functional, as well as being within close proximity to public transport, amenities and local sights. While the choice in provincial Russia is very limited, On the Go has done their homework and has chosen hotels that factor in comfort and convenience - such as nearby restaurants and shops.

This comprehensive brochure highlights special events throughout the year and covers possible special interest tours, too.
