Mongolia Gobi Desert Tour
The fabled Gobi Desert lies in the south of Mongolia. It is home to some nomadic families and also to lots of unusual wild life. The Gurvansaikhan National Park, set high above the desert floor, is home to wild argali sheep and rare birds, and visitors to the area can walk in the ice-filled "Eagle's Mouth" canyon. Dinosaur remains have been found in the region, well-preserved in the dry atmosphere. Starting from Ulaanbaatar we travel by jeep down to South Gobi Province and across the desert to Khongoryn Els. This is a spectacular area where big golden sand dunes meet the high Altai mountains - a photographer's dream. Travel northwards towards Kharkhorin, site of Erdene Zuu Buddhist monastery and the original center of Genghis Khan's Mongol Empire before returning to Ulaanbaatar.
