About Nomadic Tour Mongolia

Nomadic Tour Mongolia is a great way to explore Central Mongolia at a good price. First of all, this tour is perfect for travelers who want a real and different experience.
During the trip, you will stay with local nomadic families and sleep in traditional gers (yurts). Then, you’ll enjoy meals made at home and see how nomads live each day. Nomadic Tour Mongolia also takes you through wide open steppes, green hills, and clear blue skies.
Along the way, you’ll learn about Mongolian traditions, herding animals, and life in nature. Moreover, you’ll see how nomadic people live simply, with strong family ties and great respect for the land.
If you don’t mind less comfort and want something meaningful, Nomadic Tour Mongolia is a great choice. It’s not about luxury. Instead, it’s about culture, connection, and making memories you won’t forget

Where do you stay during the Nomadic Tour Mongolia?

During the Nomadic Tour Mongolia, you will spend 4 nights in extra gers provided by local nomadic families and 2 nights in standard ger camps.

Ger Guesthouses (gers provided by local nomadic families)

Some nomadic families living in national parks or tourist areas run small businesses that rent out gers to travelers. This gives you a great chance to experience their lifestyle up close.
On our budget tours, you’ll stay in a traditional Ger Guesthouse. These usually have 4 to 6 beds and are shared only with other members of your tour group—not with strangers.
Please note: Most nomadic families don’t have formal toilets at their summer camps. The best you might find is a basic outdoor toilet, with walls on three sides for privacy. Also, some nomadic families’ gers may not have any shower facilities.

Standard Ger Camps

Standard Ger Camps are like hotels, but instead of rooms, you sleep in a Ger. These camps are usually near famous places.
A Standard Ger has 2 to 4 single beds, a small table, a stove to keep warm, and sometimes a a shelf or a small sink. There is no bathroom inside the ger. You will use clean toilets and hot showers in another building nearby. There is also a place to eat, and sometimes a small bar or game room.
Some camps have Ensuite Gers. These have a private bathroom inside the ger. If you want this type, please tell us. We can book it for you, but it costs extra.
