Baikal Cruises - Baikal Boats
|
The advantage of seeing the best of lake Baikal:
Special relief features of Baikal and it's steep slopes surrounded by Siberian backwoods make it hard to
explore the hidden beauty of the Lake by land. Therefore, a boat charter is the most reasonable and
effective way to see the most of lake Baikal and it's region.
The period of navigation lasts from the end of May till the end of October. If you would like to book a period,
please contact us. We will answer back with possible variants and schedules.
E-mail us your wishes and suggestions, places you would like to visit, possible duration, size of the group, expected
activities. We will supply you with all the necessary information.
When venturing out to the lake, safety is a top priority. All fishing boats are outfitted with a full compliment of
safety and life-saving equipment, in addition to general safety gear such as life jackets and fire extinguishers.
This includes two self-deploying life rafts, multiple VHF radios and onboard communications systems.
