You will marvel at Mongolia's beautiful scenery: across the immense green steppes, on the sand dunes in the heart of the Gobi Desert, in the vast Siberian taiga, at the foot of the colossal Altai mountains , or by sparkling Lake Hovsgol. Wildlife lovers will be delighted to see Bactrian camels, ibexes, cranes, goyo plants, reindeer, eagles, marmots and even dinosaur fossils.

Mongolia is one of the last countries in the world where nomadism persists. Today still, it is a real way of life, passed down from generation to generation. The sheep, yaks, and horses grazing freely by the thousands in the vast steppes did not get together to put on a show for tourists; this is the daily reality of Mongolian herders.

By plunging into the epic story of legendary conqueror Genghis Khan and his hordes who founded the vast Mongol Empire, by visiting Buddhist monasteries with shamanistic influences, by observing cave paintings and ancient tombstones ... you will become impregnated with the past and the culture of this country that has marked the identity of its people.
