Nomadic Mongolia (AMNA)
Long after the reign of Genghis Khan, nomadism remains a way of life in modern Mongolia. But with so much to see and do here, it’s only natural that people would want to move about and explore a bit. This adventure taps into the nomadic lifestyle embraced by almost 40% of the local population, travelling through ruggedly beautiful gorges and sandstone mountains in search of golden eagles, desert gazelles and the Mongolian horse. And when you’re not moving, you’ll experience local customs up-close, exploring rural villages and sleeping in traditional ger tents.
Highlights: Contemplating the soviet architecture and influence in the capital city, exploring the ruins of remote monasteries, sharing a ger with a nomadic family, soaking in the Tsensher hot springs, visiting Mongolia's ancient capital, seeing the wild horses in Khustai National Park.
