• PLAN AHEAD:

Mongolia’s travel window is short, and summer tours always sell out fast. To make sure you don’t miss this incredible experience, we encourage you to book early.

During middle of July 09/14JUL there are exceptional pricing conditions due Naadam Games in Ulan Bator. Why rates for that time are on request.

• INTERNATIONAL FLIGHT:

International flights can be arranged upon request, subject to availability. A 10% service fee will apply to cover handling and booking costs.

• VISA:

Visa requirements differ depending on your nationality. We strongly recommend verifying the latest entry regulations with official immigration authorities before you travel.

• CASH/ATM:

Mongolia is still largely a cash-based country, especially outside the capital. In Ulaanbaatar, ATMs are widely available and most hotels, restaurants, and larger shops accept credit or debit cards. However, once you venture into rural areas — particularly during expeditions around Lake Khovsgol, the Orkhon Valley, or the Gobi Desert — cash becomes essential.

Many guesthouses, local eateries, and small vendors operate on a cash-only basis, and ATMs are scarce or nonexistent. It’s best to withdraw sufficient Mongolian Tugrik (MNT) before leaving the city and carry small notes for everyday purchases or tips.

• CANCELLATION, REFUNDS & TRAVEL INSURANCE:

Once bookings have been confirmed, all cancellations will follow the terms and conditions of our local suppliers and service providers. Please note that many partners require advance payments to secure availability, and their refund policies may vary. We will always do our best to recover any refundable amounts wherever possible, but some services may be fully non-refundable depending on supplier conditions.

We strongly recommend that all travelers purchase comprehensive travel insurance covering trip cancellations, medical emergencies, and unexpected changes. This ensures peace of mind and financial protection in the event of unforeseen circumstances.

• FOOD & DRIVING:

Please note: Mongolia’s cuisine is largely meat-based. Vegetarian meals can be arranged on request, though options may be more limited due to the difficulty of sourcing fresh produce in remote areas.

Please be aware that travel times in Mongolia can be long, and some roads are unpaved or rugged. Extended days spent in vehicles are sometimes unavoidable due to the vast distances and the nature of the terrain. This is part of the authentic experience of exploring Mongolia’s remote wilderness.

• GER CAMP:

In the ger camps you sleep in traditional gers with beds and a stove. Showers and toilets are usually in a shared building, and electricity is often only available at certain times. The night with the nomadic family is simpler, but all the more authentic.

• CLOTHING:

Even in summer the nights get cool, and at Khuvsgul Lake sometimes even cold. Pack warm layers, a windproof jacket, sun protection and sturdy shoes.

You’ll receive a comprehensive Travel Guide Book in PDF format with all your confirmed bookings, key travel information, and a personalized day-by-day itinerary designed specifically for you.

The guide also includes practical tips to help your trip go smoothly, along with must-see locations, local eateries, hand-picked café recommendations we have personally tried and loved.

We will even connect you with reliable local taxi drivers, guides, and companies we have met during our own travels and fully trust.

Mongolia’s nickname is no exaggeration. With more than 260 sunny days a year, the skies are vast, high, and impossibly blue.

The best time to visit is summer, from June to September, when temperatures are at their warmest. Expect warm days (20–30°C), though nights can get chilly, often dropping below 5°C, even in the South Gobi, where the desert experiences cooler nights despite its daytime heat.

SIM cards are available almost everywhere in Mongolia, including directly at the airport upon arrival. If you prefer not to purchase a physical SIM card, you can easily use an eSIM from Airalo — you’ll find more details and a 10% discount in our Travel Guide Book.

Please Note: Across most of Mongolia, network coverage is limited or often nonexistent. This remoteness offers a rare chance to fully disconnect, leaving behind screens and signals to reconnect with the silence of nature, the open skies, and the vast, untamed beauty of the Mongolian wilderness.
