    Arrive in Ulaanbaatar. Transfer to 4 star Hotel Bayangol for check-in.

    Day Two – Ulaanbaatar

    Day Three – Ulaanbaatar to Kharkhorin (375 km)

    We drive westwards through beautiful landscapes of steppe, river valleys and rolling hills, to Kharkhorin, the ancient Capital of the Great Mongolian Empire. The city founded in the Valley of the Orkhon river in 1220 was the capital city of the Great Mongolian Empire until Kublai Khan, grandson of Genghis Khan, moved the capital to Beijing during the Yuan Dynasty. Nearby Erdenezuu Monastery is the oldest surviving Buddhist monastery in Mongolia and was founded on the ruins of ancient Kharkhorin in 1586. We visit the monastery’s magnificent exhibits, which include an extraordinary collection of Buddhist paintings, special costumes for religious dances and superb Buddhist iconography in true Mongolian and Tibetan style.

    Lunch and dinner at the Ger Camp
    Overnight at Urguu Ger Camp (traditional)

    Day Four – Kharkhorin to Middle Gobi land (250 km)

    We leave Kharkhorin and continue south to the Ongi Monastery, located in Saihan-Ovoo in the Middle Gobi land. En route, we enjoy a traditional Mongolian BBQ lunch with a Nomadic family. We visit the ruins of the Ongi Monastery, which was founded in 1660 and consisted of two temple complexes on the North and South of the River Ongi. At its heyday, Ongi Monastery housed around 30 temples, four large Buddhist universities and over 1000 monks at a time.

    Dinner at the Ger Camp
    Overnight at the Ongiin Nuuts Ger Camp (traditional)

    Day Five – Gobi Desert Bayanzag (250 km)

    Today we continue into the Gobi Desert to explore the Bayanzag Cliffs. In the early afternoon we arrive at the ancient red rock creation, Bayanzag, formed 60-70 million years ago. The striking red Bayanzag Cliffs contain vast amounts of dinosaur fossils, eggs and bones and are neighboured by indigenous Saxual tree forests. We will trek around the surrounding areas.

    Lunch and dinner at the Ger Camp

    Day Six – Khongoriin Els (200 km)
    After breakfast, we will drive to the Khongor els sand dunes. In the afternoon we will see marvellous Khongoriin Els dunes that stretch for an extraordinary 180 kms, and are as wide as 7 – 20km. The dunes lie on the northern part of beautifully formed mountain ranges Servei and Zuulun. The sound of masses of wind-blown sand can be heard from far away. This sound is so melodic, the 200m high sand dunes are called “Singing Dunes”.  There is an oasis called Khongor River with stunning greenery in the summer. We will have an opportunity to ride two humped Bacterian camels, called by locals “Princes of the Gobi” and we can see camel breeders’ everyday life.

    Dinner at the Ger Camp
