Mongolia Tours and Trips

Extremely well organised trip with an excellent Explore leader who was very efficient, knowledgeable and helpful. The drivers were excellent considering the extremely challenging conditions and never lost their way despite not having sat nav available and signage. Excellent itinerary. Considering the terrain and the remoteness of locations, the accommodation apart from in the Orkhon Valley was very good and the food excellent considering the difficulties in bringing supplies to such isolated places. It was an extremely challenging trip with long days and long journeys but well worth the experience. The landscapes were breathtaking with soaring cliffs where dinosaur remains were found, the sand dunes of the Gobi, valleys and gorges and many other amazing sights. We also visited a number of monasteries and buddhist temples and also had the opportunity to interact with local nomadic families. I can only say it was an amazing but challenging experience and the perfect opportunity for someone to sample a totally different way of life from those of us in the West. .

Excellent trip and tour leader. One of my best Explore trips, but not easy travel, which made the trip for me. One of the most beautiful, remote places I've ever been. Staying in Gers was the highlight of the trip.

The itinerary is full-on but that’s understandable considering the distance we travelled. The ger accommodation varied from very comfortable to a little basic; some with electricity, some with Wi-Fi , but all with hot showers and clean communal facilities. The ger camps with fewer amenities were often the most charming. Our guide was polite, punctual and unflappable. He struggled at times to engage all members of the group but he always made sure information regarding the next day’s activities was shared in the group ‘what’s app’ later in the evening. Overall, a wonderful trip. Mongolia truly is the country that just keeps giving.

A superb trip giving an excellent insight into life in Mongolia. Truly unique experience that I thoroughly recommend. Wonderful country to visit offering expansive and diverse landscapes and a truly hospitable people. Tour leader was at all times superb in attending to our needs and requests. Thoroughly enjoyable and superb experience all round.

Awesome trip, a unique experience. Every aspect felt special from start to finish. Bata and his support team did everything possible to give us the best Mongolian experience. A great blend of cycling, culture and freshly cooked traditional food along the way.

Thoroughly enjoyed the trip. Some of the ger camps were better than others. Didn’t like the really big, busy ones as they didn’t give the feel of really being away from it all. Understandably, some of the journeys were long but the days were broken up well by comfort/coffee/lunch stops/visits etc and I have to say our 4 drivers were magnificent. Our tour leader needed to be a bit more organised and we had to keep prompting him to be more proactive in keeping us updated and checking that the whole group were still together in busy areas. Not easy, I know, keeping a group of 15 people organised! However, he was a very pleasant and likeable chap.
