Belarus and Western Russia
Thank you Tony, Motoreiter and adventure950 for all the threads and info. Yes I am Uk citizen. I've found a couple of agencies who do visas and intros, for both Russsia and Belarus : Travel Direct and RealRussia. I don't know if some are better than others, but more expensive than just going through the embassies... thats understandable if they do the whole deal with introductions. Russian borders and petrol stations sound a lot like Ukraine...which was a thoroughly worthwhile visit once adjusted to the cultural differences and road conditions. Its these little snippits of info from people who have been there/live there that make all the difference, together with websites, good accommodation. Is it easy to find accommodation out in the countryside, such as B&B in guesthouses? Thanks again, Gill
