5-Nights Mongolia: Secrets of the Gobi Desert - Tailormade Journeys

Home to one of the world's last surviving nomadic cultures, Mongolia’s sense of heritage and tradition runs deep. Traditional yurts, or gers, dot the high plains of Central Asia, stretching from expansive grasslands to unexpected corners of Ulaanbaatar. 

The spirit of the steppe permeates daily life, where guests are welcomed with kumiss (fermented mare’s milk) and byaslag (yak cheese), and crowds gather in stadiums to cheer on horse-racing, wrestling and archery. While Mongolia is evolving, it remains a land of wild horses, red deer, Gobi bears and snow leopards, where Buddhist rituals and Shamanic practices all take place under vast star-studded skies.
