Since the train is designed for tourists, the level of comfort that it provides will be higher than in usual Russian trains.

The tour is organized by RzhD-Tour, which is a subsidiary company of Russian Railways, in cooperation with Intourist, a first-rate Russian tour operator. The trip from Moscow to Beijing will take 12 days, and will feature a 2 day excursion program in Beijing before departing that city on a return trip to Moscow. It will stop at numerous cities and monuments along the way, with guided tours to allow passengers to explore cities like Kazan, Yekaterinburg, Novosibirsk, and Ulaanbaator.
