Saving while traveling

If you travel across Russia to Mongolia you might find the idea of saving $100 and 5 hours in one smart move from Irkutsk to Ulaanbaatar. If you take a direct train from Irkutsk to Ulaanbaatar it will cost you around 5000 rubles. They don't sell 3d class for this direction, so you will have to get a 'koope'.

So what you can do is to take a train to Ulan-Ude, and then take a bus to Ulaanbaatar. The train will cost you 700 rubles, and the bus will be 1200 rubles. So totaly you save about 3000 rubles on this transfer. But you have to book your bus tickets in advance. This you can do here on our website, take a look at menu on the right.

Also, if you want to learn how to buy train tickets in Russia online with no commission at the same price as at the station, then please take a look at Train tickets explained page.
