Going on Trans-Siberian to Ulan Ude and then Irkturusk. What is the best way (s) to see the lake from either place...any tours other than just waling to the edge at Listvyanka? What other out of town places should we consider when there?

Email your Irkutsk hostel ahead of arrival and ask about booking a package trip to Olkhan Island. Listvyanka is not as scenic. Whereas Olkhan Island is breathtaking:
