Way to Russia Train Tickets:
How It Works

WayToRussia.Net is a travel guide — we do not sell train tickets ourselves.

Instead, we provide online train schedules, comprehensive guide to train travel in Russia, and allow our readers to buy train tickets beforehand from the chosen service providers (and explain how they can buy the tickets themselves directly at train stations).

The service provides we advertise were chosen for their positive record, fair prices, good quality of customer support, ability to accept payments with credit cards, English-speaking operators.

We do get commission from them for every paid order, and this allows us to continue developing WayToRussia.Net, offering free unbiased information about Russia for travelers, as well as support our online order processing system.

We constantly monitor the quality of support they provide, especially making sure you don't get overcharged and that you receive replies within 24 hours. Because of the nature of train travel in Russia, you will always have to pay more if you go through a service provider, rather than the train station directly. But then there are certain advantages you get if you order through service provider. More on that can be found at our knowledgebase article regarding Advantages and Disadvantages of going through train station directly / service providers (agencies).

Once you have chosen the train(s) you need, you will be offered to purchase your train tickets by yourself at a train station, or through several selected service providers. Train tickets cannot be reserved in Russia, that's why you have to buy them to secure your journey.

You can contact the service providers and / or Way to Russia Trains department through our Online Support Center.
