Mongolia Ger Accommodation 

What is Ger Camp?

Standard Ger Camps are an alternative type of hotel***. They serve customers with gers instead of hotel rooms and are always located near the main attractions. In a Standard Ger, you won’t find a private bathroom, but it usually accommodates 2 to 4 single beds. Furthermore, it features a traditional stove, a simple table, and occasionally cupboards and washstands. For your convenience, modern toilet and hot shower facilities are in a separate building. In addition to that, you will also find a restaurant or dining room in a separate building. Moreover, sometimes, there might be a bar or recreation room as well.
Some of the ger camps offer Ensuite Gers. An Ensuite Ger has a private bathroom attached to the Ger. If this option interests you, please let us know, and we will be delighted to arrange it for you for an additional fee.

What is Ger Guesthouse?

Some nomadic families who live within national parks or sightseeing areas run their own small businesses that rent ger accommodations for backpackers. This gives you a chance to get closely acquainted with the way of life and the nomadic lifestyle. During our budget tours, you will stay in Mongolian traditional accommodation, Ger Guesthouse. A Ger Guesthouse typically has 4-6 beds, and occupancy is based on multi-share but only with your group members and not with other tours. However, it’s important to note that most nomadic families do not have formal toilets in their summer places. So, the most you can expect to find is a designated toilet trench that may be screened on three sides. Additionally, please be aware that no showering facilities will be available in some of the local ger guesthouses.
