Classic Mongolia

"Classic Mongolia" is the most comfortable of the tours in Mongolia. Guests will visit two exclusive ger yurt camps located far from human settlements, HS Khaan Ger Resort and Three Camel Lodge, and learn about the life of nomads. Finally, they will spend a few days resting in the country's capital - Ulaanbaatar. Hustai National Park is the site of a unique project to restore Przewalski's horse to nature (Equus Przewalski), called Takhi by the Mongols. In the 60s, these horses became extinct in the wild. Since 1992, they have been successfully reintroduced to Hustai and other parts of Mongolia. Hustain Nuruu (Birch Mountains) are located relatively close to Ulaanbaatar and are a place where nature conservation brings fantastic results, the population of numerous herds of marmots and Canadian deer (wapiti) has increased to thousands. The large wolf population benefits from this. Travelers will visit the remains of Neolithic graves, reach the South Gobi to admire the landscapes of the Gobi Gurwansajchan National Park, where the famous Burning Cliffs (Bayanzag) and the Yol Valley are located.
