New Year's holidays are long over, but this is not a reason to plunge into routine. You can even travel on weekends. For those who want to prolong the festive mood, we tell you about the new tourist train No. 934/933 Moscow – Veliky Ustyug – Kostroma – Moscow. This "fabulous" composition will delight travelers throughout February and March. Do not miss the unique opportunity to spend an interesting journey.
The train made its first flight this weekend. The train departs every Friday at 17:05 from the Yaroslavsky railway station in Moscow and stays the next morning at 10:40 in Veliky Ustyug. In their free time, passengers explore the city and its sights and on the same day at 18:10 they leave for the next city. Arrival in Kostroma on Sunday at 10:15.
On the way back, the train will travel on a locomotive traction. You can see how the docking takes place, as well as take a picture against the background of the locomotive. Departure to Moscow at 17:50 on Sunday and returns all tourists to the capital at 23:35.
You can take a ride on the tourist circular route until March 28, 2021. The cost of a reserved seat starts from 3000 rubles.
Many travelers have already called the train a "hotel on wheels". The train consists of reserved seats, compartment cars and St. Meals are not included in the ticket price. You can take care of this yourself, or provide yourself with it for a fee in the dining car. The route is designed so that its passengers can rest and sleep at night. As the passengers noted, the main convenience of the train is that it is not necessary to book a hotel separately. Which saves not only time, but also money.
This route is unique because in a few days you can visit two "fabulous" capitals: Kostroma, the birthplace of the Snow Maiden and Veliky Ustyug, the patrimony of Santa Claus. In addition, you can see other interesting sights of the Russian north. Do not worry if you do not know how to see the main and interesting sights of these two cities in a day. At the railway station of each city there is a Tourist information Center, where representatives of museums and travel agencies are located. Therefore, a ticket to the museum or a ready-made tour of the city can be purchased without leaving far from the train.
It is worth noting that the composition is experimental, and it is possible that after 2 months of work it will become regular. We are not guessing yet, but the demand for tickets is already high. Therefore, as always, we recommend that you plan your trip in advance and purchase tickets. Fabulous journeys!
