From Ulaanbaatar to Irkutsk by Train (Russia-Mongolia)

Hi everyone, I’m planning to travel from Ulaanbaatar to Irkutsk by train this summer but I’m a bit worried about crossing the borders. How does it work? Could anyone share their experience? (I’ve found quite a few accounts of people going *from* Russia *to* Mongolia, but entering a country is never the same as leaving it—especially in this context!)

Thanks in advance! 😊

Hi there! Check out the Caravanistan website—it’s got tons of info!

Hi Blaise,

Could you share your experience traveling through Russia? Did you run into any difficulties crossing the border?

Thanks!
