FAQ

Who will be leading our Mongolia adventure, and what criteria do you use to select the guide?

Our Mongolia expeditions are led by experienced, bilingual local guides who combine deep cultural knowledge, wilderness expertise, and a genuine passion for sharing the culture and hospitality.


What can I expect on a Mongolia riding adventure?

Our Mongolia riding trips immerse you in true wilderness. Each night, you’ll camp in sturdy tents under the open sky, sleep on the ground, and cook meals over propane stoves or wood fires. Nearby streams double as your bathhouse, and simple rock-or-tree latrines handle nature’s calls. With more than twenty years outfitting remote expeditions, we do everything possible to keep you safe, warm, well-fed, and comfortable—but you should still be ready for occasional cold, hunger, or discomfort. Please consult a trip leader or our office to fully understand the trip’s rigors before booking.


Some itineraries include daily vehicle support, while others rely entirely on pack horses for self-sufficiency. Imagine a 200-year-old Rocky Mountains trek: no roads, no fences, and local nomads living in harmony with the land. Over 5–7 days, you’ll ride 4–6 hours per day, alternating walk and trot, with canters whenever the terrain allows. Be sure to review our gear list for all personal items and equipment. Between rides, you’ll find plenty of chances to photograph sweeping vistas, explore hidden valleys, fish tranquil streams, or simply relax by the fire.


Our Mongolia overland trips blend urban comfort with off-road adventure.

In Ulaanbaatar, you’ll stay in a western-style hotel complete with full amenities. Outside the capital, accommodations vary by itinerary—either traditional ger camps or car camping at remote sites.


You’ll journey in a four-wheel-drive jeep or van, accompanied by a local, English-speaking guide and an experienced driver.

For comprehensive details on camp facilities, daily routes, and packing essentials, please consult our detailed trip guide.


Why choose horseback travel for your Mongolia adventure?

Experiencing Mongolia on horseback builds a bridge of understanding and respect between travelers and nomads by sharing their lifelong passion for horses. Riding side by side with herders creates an immediate bond, inviting you into their daily traditions, rhythms, and stories of the steppe.


Traveling by horse through the vast open landscapes grants an unrivaled sense of freedom and immersion in the environment. It reveals the vibrant character of nomadic life—from sunrise herd movements to campfire conversations—while showcasing Mongolia’s raw beauty. This shared love of horses and wilderness inspired us to design authentic riding journeys alongside local nomads.

What riding background should I have to join your Mongolia adventures?

Our Mongolia trips welcome both seasoned equestrians and fit, eager beginners. We carefully match each rider with a horse that suits their skill level and encourage you to ride at your own comfort and pace.


These journeys aren’t nose-to-tail trail rides. You’ll choose when to walk, trot, or canter so you arrive at camp on your terms.


While basic riding experience is helpful, many first-timers succeed after completing a short riding course or showing proficiency in active, rustic wilderness travel. Above all, we look for riders who:

  •  Feel at ease around horses
  •  Are excited to spend full days in the saddle
  •  Have some prior riding or wilderness travel experience
  •  Bring a positive, adventurous attitude


If you meet these criteria and love the idea of camping under Mongolia’s open skies, you’ll thrive on our horseback adventures

Do I need a visa for Mongolia?

Many countries are visa-exempt, including the US. Visa rules vary by country. Check before booking.
