Remote Lands has introduced a dozen different itineraries exploring Siberia, starting at $475 per person, per day.

“In the popular imagination, Siberia is a place of hardship and freezing temperatures. In reality, visitors are invariably pleasantly surprised to find a region of forests, lakes and mountains, beautifully preserved cities, and welcoming people,” said Jay Tindall, Remote Lands' co-founder and COO. “Luxury travel isn't just about five-star hotels and private jets - it's also about providing travelers with new and unique experiences with the best possible accommodations and service, and in that respect, Siberia is the perfect addition to our destination catalogue.”
