Tatiana Baksheeva, Irkutsk, Baikal

Hi there! My name is Tatiana Baksheeva. I am based in Irkutsk.

My mission is pretty simple. If you failed to find the information about Lake Baikal and its area, that you had been seeking for a long time on the web, feel free to request it from me via the contact form.

To ask a local is much easier!..

In summer time you can get from Listvyanka villgae to Olkhon Island only by water.

I translated an official timetable for summer 2011. This is timetable for regualar hydrofoil boats. After the season it’s also possible to rent a private boat, in September prices may start from 15 000 roubles a day.

In winter time it’s possible to get to Olkhon Island on ice road by car or…dog sledding (?) :-)

    Hi, Tatiana,

    I’m Jungsun AHN (You can call “Sunny”)from south korea.
    I wanna ask for you about the ship in baikal.
    Now, I wanna ride a ship from Chivyrkuy Bay to Olkhon Island on 25th Aug. and from Olkhon Island to Severobaikalsk on 26th Aug. I could find information about time and price at your homepage but I cannot know where I can buy the ticket in that town and How I can go to Chivyrkuy Bay.
    I tried to find the port place in Chivyrkuy, It was impossible.

    Could you help me?
