Tour description
This eco tour begins in the afternoon with a group gathering in Vladivostok. After that we are going to the first point – Safari Park. Travel time – two hours. There we will be able to watch and photograph birds and animals of Ussuri taiga, including tigers and bears, and even touch some of the tamed animals. Next, we move to our camping place – a village called Anisimovka. There will be lunch waiting for us, and a campground where we will spend the night. The campground will be located near a house in which it’s possible to cook, charge devices and take a shower.

In the evening, we will climb a small hill near the village to enjoy the sunset.

In the morning of the second day after a light breakfast we are climbing mount Falaza. This process is not very easy, but the group will not move too quickly so we have time to enjoy beautiful views and take pictures. We’ll have a picnic on the top of the mountain. On the way to the camp we can stop by a cool and refreshing river.

In the camp – leisure time, getting to know the life and characteristics of Russian villages. In the evening – dinner, sitting around the campfire.
