Since then we have organised white water canoe trips into the wilds of Central Asia, sent individuals and guided groups across Russia on the magnificent train journeys, organised varied special interest groups, and continued to pioneer new routes. We were the first to explore the BAM Trans Siberian route - previously closed to foreigners. In fact we explored so much that our colleague, Athol Yates, wrote the definitive guide book for this route -BAM Trans Siberian Route - which has been published by "TrailBlazers" of the UK, who also publish the classic guide for this route, "The Trans Siberian Handbook". Following this success Athol was commissioned by BRADT Publishing in the UK to write a book for their rail travel series called, "Russia and the Ukraine by Rail". To top it all off our research team was asked by TrailBlazers to update their own ‘Trans Siberian Handbook’! All these efforts result in great trips, and up to date information.
