Overview

On this tour, you can visit authentic nomad families and explore their lifestyle while staying in their extra ger (yurt). You will have the opportunity to see yaks and other animals. This tour covers Unesco heritage, Orkhon Valley and the famous national park, “mini-gobi”, a gobi-type landscape that presents a unique combination of mountains, forests and Gobi-type landscape all in one location. Most importantly, you can visit one of the most historical sites, the ruin of Kharkhorin city, once was at the same time a political, economic, administrative and religious centre, and one of the most important cities in the history of world trade holding an intense impact on the Silk Road. We hope you will enjoy horse and camel riding and the hiking activities.
