Discovery Tour in Mongolia

After you step off the plane at Chinggis Khan Int’l Airport, our staff will be ready to meet you. They’ll take you to your accommodation where you’ll get a chance to rest after your travels. Once your whole group has arrived, you’ll get given a tour through Ulaanbaatar starting at the Sukhbaatar Square and ending at the National History Museum.

In the afternoon, you’ll visit the Gandantegchinlen Monastery. This religious center is known for the exquisite Migjid Janraisig statue made of silver, gold and over 2,000 jewels that stand masterfully in the monastery. You’ll then finish off your day with the beautiful symphonies coming from the Tumen Ekh Ensemble Concert.

Today, you’ll observe many cultural practices. The Ceremony for National Flag Day demonstrates respect to the Chinggis Khan Statue. It’s usually celebrated with a military parade and a flag-raising ceremony in Sukhbaatar Square. During the ceremony, many locals also place flowers at the General Sukhbaatar statue in the square.

After lunch, you can put your Mongol warrior skills to the test. You’ll learn target archery and receive a cheer at every bullseye! To top of a culturally rich day, you’ll also visit the Mongol Costumes Festival where you’ll get to see traditional clothing from over 20 ethnicities in Mongolia.

It’s the day of the Naadam Festival! Locally termed “the three games of men”, the Naadam Festival shows off various skills like Mongolian wrestling, horse racing, and archery. These games are held throughout the country during midsummer.

It’s time to explore the Gobi Desert! Prepare for a long trip to the Gobi Mirage Camp where you’ll get to rest in a traditional ger.

Get ready for a trip to the Gurvan Saikhan Mountains. You’ll witness the massive ice wall between the cliffs and go horse-riding up the mountain.

After lunch, you’ll head to the sand dunes where you’ll meet up with a nomad family. They’ll invite you in and show you their traditional way of life. You’ll find out how they live, eat and work to survive in Mongolia. You’ll even get to ride Bactrian camels during your stay!

Before heading back to camp, you’ll head to the Bayanzag Flaming Cliffs where you’ll be in awe at dinosaur fossils and mesmerized by the sunset over the cliffs.

It’s time to head back to Ulaanbaatar after breakfast. Use this time to recollect memories with your group or take a nap on the long bus ride. Once you get back, we’ve organized a farewell dinner for you and your group. This is a great time to enjoy the Mongolian food and share your thoughts on your adventure through Mongolia.

Your trip has finally come to an end but that doesn’t mean your memories won’t last a lifetime. Use the time you have before your flight to explore Ulaanbaatar and buy a few souvenirs for you to take home.
