We travel through steppe, mountains and the Gobi desert exploring the nature and culture of Mongolia, yet little known country before making our way to the far western reaches to visit the eagle festival, celebrating the fascinating past time of hunting with eagles and the strong connection the Mongolian people have with their animals and land.

Reviews of our Mongolia Guided Tours
Guests share how our guided trips made Mongolia seamless and insightful.
Andrew | Traveled in July
This is one of my favourite ever Explore tours. Stunning scenery, amazing wildlife, lovely locals, Milky Way firmaments at night. It was the first Explore tour for our guide Serji but you wouldn’t have known unless she’d told us. She is very experienced as a guide and it showed. Serji’s love for Mongolia is evident, and she shared her knowledge and insights throughout the tour. The gers were very cosy, the food laid on good to excellent. That is written as an omnivore. If you’re vegan, this may not be the tour for you. Bring your own teabags if you need your dose of builders’ in the morning. In summary: do it!
Anonymous | Traveled in June
Serjee was an exceptional leader and made the trip full of good fun with her positive attitude, warm and friendly demeanor, and genuine care of everyone. Staying in gers was a highlight of the trip, and the smaller, family-run ger camps were especially memorable. We experienced snow, rainstorms, sandstorms, and pollen storms (in June) and covered a lot of ground off road away from villages and cities. Meals were served mostly buffet style, with a variety of meats, potatoes, rice, vegetables, and fruit to customize one’s diet. We never went hungry!
Susan | Traveled in June
Excellent holiday. Well organised. Helpful, well informed leader and a beautiful country
Peter | Traveled in June
We saw a wide range of Mongolian scenery: sand dunes, steppe, city, rock formations. A fair amount of driving was therefore needed but managed well with coffee and wee (not usually toilet) breaks. Snack and booze purchase stops included too. Great drivers who kept us safe and comfortable across the, mainly gravel, tracks. You'll see non-stop birds of prey, camels, horses, sheep, goats, yaks, marmots, squirrels and maybe a deer or ibex. Staying in gers was generally comfortable. Bring eye masks and ear plugs for the sunny mornings and sometimes noisy camp evenings (fellow travellers or yaks). Our bags were often taken from the cars to the gers for us. Could get busy around buffet meals and some extremely rural camps had limited staff to keep everything topped up promptly. There was a pleasing amount of salad and vegetables but everything has a chunk of mutton or camel on it. Everything. Wifi, showers & electricity varied. Expect little and you'll be pleasantly surprised. Prepare for all the hot or cold overnight and sandstorm /snow /heat /cold /rain in the day. For the most however we had excellent weather. Good to interact with nomadic herding families and be welcomed into their gers. Sara guided us well, always happy to explain about Mongolian culture and show us her beautiful country. Mongolia is about the scenery mainly but the museums, buddhist sites, music and people were also showcased. You'll be sad to return to the bustle & traffic of Ulaanbaatar at the end.

This trip was a delight from start to finish, brilliant guides and drivers, far better food and accommodation than anticipated, lovely group of mixed nationalities and ages and just an amazing country. Felt like we were in a different world, so much space.

Every single day was perfectly organised and we have learnt a lot about mongolia thanks to the tour leader who was very knowledgeable.
