Home / About Baikaler / Why with Baikaler

 

  • All set up in advance!

    You get comprehensive on-line information support, customized tour packages tailored to your preferences and timing. E-mail me your details e.g. the size of your party, expected duration of stay and your preferred activities and I'll send you my proposal for an itinerary tailored precisely to your needs.
  • Baikaler has equipment.

    Baikaler owns things difficult to carry: a 3 seat kayak, tent and 2 mountain bikes. Besides of that, other equipment can be arranged or rented.
    Also, a possession of a car and apartment in the center of Irkutsk helps to avoid 'in betweens' and keep the price reasonable.

  • Benefit for local inhabitants.

    All people involved are not a part of any existing travel entity. We stay with families so you can see people everyday life. For many of them esp. living in rural areas, this is probably the only way to earn their bread money

  • Baikaler cares the nature!

    Just by being with me, you help the environment! All my tours are environment friendly. We leave nothing after ourselves but footprints! Every time when I am out of town on tours, I collect rubbish and empty bottles to be recycled.

  • Money reallocation.

    Instead of paying a hundred dollars per night in hotels, which are below the Western standards by default, you may want to book a reasonably priced homestay or tour to lake Baikal.
