I traveled with Teamhike around Lake Baikal in winter, from February 28 to March 5, 2026. Dog sledding, buggy drifting, the drive to Cape Khoboy, spending the night on the ice in a warm tent, and the "Kiss of Lake Baikal": the emotions were incredibly positive! Alexander, Yaroslav, and Natalia made the trip unforgettable and comfortable. If you haven't been to Lake Baikal yet, I definitely recommend choosing Teamhike!

Today we returned from a winter trip to Lake Baikal with our family. This was our second trip with Teamhike to this breathtaking place, and I have to say the second trip was just as memorable as the first. Teamhike never repeats itself!! We saw this beauty not only from the ice, but also from high in the Baikal mountain ranges. Thank you to the team for their professionalism and for paying such close attention to the details and to the people — to us, the travelers!! In fact, this was our fourth trip with Teamhike!! That means they're doing everything right, and I'm absolutely sure that next time I'll be overwhelmed with emotions all over again!! Look at the beauty Teamhike gave us:
My trip to North Korea!! Do I recommend North Korea? Recommend it? That's an understatement!!! We're definitely going again with our family and friends and the Teamhike crew. It was a complete immersion in the culture, especially the traditional food — foodies will be amazed! I want to go back and experience those emotions all over again) I'll travel with Alexander again next year, but first up is Lake Baikal!
Lake Baikal, February 20, 2026 – February 26, 2026. An incredible team, excellent organization, and a wonderful program. We'll return to Teamhike again and again! Thank you, Yaroslav, Natalia, and Alexander!
We returned from a winter trip to Lake Baikal with the Teamhike crew, and our impressions are entirely positive. The program was packed. Spending a night in a tent on the ice of Lake Baikal, going dog sledding, and enjoying a banya with an ice hole were probably the best 24 hours of my life. I was glad that the organizers put traveler safety first. Thank you to Natalia and Yaroslav for taking such good care of us, to Sergey for the jokes, and to Egor for the musical accompaniment. I already want to set off on another adventure in your off-road vehicles!

Thank you, Alexander, and everyone on the Teamhike team for a wonderful trip to Lake Baikal! The highlights and scenery will keep us energized at least until summer. See you again soon, dear friends!
Lake Baikal! Altai! Murmansk! A team of travel professionals! You get to enjoy the highlights without having to worry about a thing! They’ll check you in, feed you (always plenty!), show you around, tell you all about it, and drive you there!!! I hope I can make it to Kunashir Island this year!!!
Our first trip with Teamhike was to Mongolia in October 2024. Alexander is incredibly upbeat and will show you and tell you everything, and more. Mongolia is a fascinating country with a unique culture and plenty to see. And the buuz there are so delicious, it’s hard to put into words! Next, we visited Lake Baikal in winter, in February 2025. Our favorite part was spending the night in a tent on the ice. The clear ice was beautiful, and we went sledding with friendly huskies. A huge thank-you to the whole team: Natasha, Roma, and of course Alexander, for all the great memories and highlights. Then came Sakhalin in September 2025: the stunning views and a night on the shore, listening to the waves, will stay in our hearts ????. Special thanks to Alexander, who plans every detail and sorts out any issues along the way. On to new adventures!
It was an unforgettable winter trip to Lake Baikal with the Teamhike team! The food was delicious, and we visited many different places. We skated on Lake Baikal! After the banya, we went swimming in an ice hole! We slept in a warm tent on the ice and listened to the ice crack. Lake Baikal's most delicious kiss) Thank you to the whole team! True professionals! We are going to Altai with them next, and we have already booked a trip to Kunashir Island for next year!
An amazing team! Such creative people! I have been working with this company for many years. Thanks to them, Kamchatka, Sakhalin, Lake Baikal, Altai, and many more incredible journeys are now part of my life. I hope there will be many more. The team always works with care and attention, focusing on the client and taking everyone's wishes into account. Groups sometimes include vegetarians, and they get separate meals. You just need to mention it.
I have already taken two trips with these wonderful people. There was winter Lake Baikal, and this year I made it to Kamchatka! The places are incredible, and the highlights are endless. I am hugely grateful to the entire Teamhike team for all of it, as well as for organizing everything and for the great company. I will travel with you again)
