This nature journey offers an adventurous experience exploring Mongolia's vast wild landscapes. Here are some important aspects of the trip you should be aware of.

Remote Ger Camps
Our remote ger camps in Mongolia offer the most comfortable and authentic way to immerse yourself in the country’s vast, wide-open landscape while ensuring our presence does not disturb wildlife or disrupt the traditions of local nomadic herders. Some camps are private to our group, while others may host additional travelers, but all provide a quiet and respectful base for exploring the landscape. Accommodations are simple but welcoming, with traditional felt gers outfitted with Queen or Two Twin beds, warm bedding, and wood stoves for heat. Facilities include en suite portable toilets, shared tented shower and composting toilets. Due to their remote location, there is limited or no cell phone service and limited Wi-Fi access at camp that may be limited to certain times of day. While adventurous, a stay in our ger camps offers a rare chance to experience Mongolia in a way that balances comfort, traditional practices, and respect for the land and its people.

Wildlife Viewing Experience in Mongolia
Mongolia offers an extraordinary opportunity to search for some of the planet’s most elusive wildlife against a backdrop of immense, wide-open landscapes. Unlike an African safari, where animals are abundant and often in close range, wildlife here is dispersed across vast distances and requires time, patience, and persistence to observe. Much of our experience involves long drives across rugged terrain in Toyota Land Cruisers, with no more than three guests per vehicle to ensure comfort and visibility. Our Expedition Leader will rotate among the vehicles during drives, while we stop frequently to set up scopes and scan the horizon for wildlife. These searches can mean extended periods of driving, and other times of waiting and watching, but the reward of spotting rare species in such a remote and wild setting makes the effort deeply worthwhile. Understanding that wildlife encounters here are earned—rather than guaranteed or constant—will allow you to fully embrace the adventure and the immense beauty of Mongolia’s natural world.

Arrive in Ulaanbaatar by 8 am on Day 1 in order to participate in a group lunch and tour beginning at approximately 11 am. You are free to depart Ulaanbaatar any time on the final day.
