- Cycling in Mongolia
11 amazing crew for 12 travellers. Overall excellent. I did not expect the nights to be so cold. I should have brought one heating gel pad. Exodus rates it as a 4/10 physical level. I would rate it 6.
- Nomadic Mongolia
Fabulous trip that showcases the best of beautiful Mongolia, from the capital UlaanBaatar to camel rides and sand dunes in the Gobi, an icy goge and hot springs, monasteries and visits to local nomadic families, ger camps and amazing skies and scenery. What an adventure!
What our customers ask about Adventure Tours & Trips in Mongolia
What are the must-see highlights of an Adventure tour in Mongolia?
Adventure tours in Mongolia center around several key natural and cultural landmarks. The Orkhon Valley Waterfall which emerged from volcanic activity 20,000 years ago stands as a natural centerpiece. In Kharkhorin the Erdene Zuu Monastery reflects Mongolia's Buddhist heritage while the Khongoryn Els sand dunes stretch an impressive 100km across the Gobi Desert. Nature enthusiasts often visit the Tsenkher Hot Springs which bubble at +85.5°C at 1,860m elevation. The Hustai National Park lets visitors observe the rare Przewalski's wild horses in their natural habitat. As one TourRadar traveler noted: "The Orkhon Valley was absolutely stunning - the combination of waterfalls historic sites and nomadic culture made it an unforgettable experience."
How do I get around during a Mongolia Adventure tour?
Getting around Mongolia requires a blend of modern and traditional transportation. Tour operators use modified 4WD vehicles like the Mitsubishi Delica or Hyundai Straex for long-distance travel across the country's varied terrain. Local experiences often include horseback and camel riding for specific routes and cultural authenticity. One TourRadar traveler noted: "The 4WD vehicles were essential for the rough terrain while riding Bactrian camels through the Gobi provided an authentic desert experience."
