Trip plan

Meet in the morning and prepare for an exciting journey to the Gobi Desert. We'll either take a flight or travel overland in a 4x4 Japanese jeep, depending on availability. Please note that the domestic flight operates only twice a week. If the flight is unavailable on Day 1, we'll embark on an 8-9 hour overland drive with lunch en route. Upon arrival, check into a local hotel. In the evening, you can explore Dalanzadgad town at your leisure.

This morning, we'll set off on a 1-hour drive to Yol Gorge, a stunning, picturesque location nestled in the Gurvan Saikhan Mountains. You'll have the opportunity to hike through the canyon, where the valley is often covered in thick ice. Afterward, we'll enjoy lunch at a nearby nomadic family or guest house. In the afternoon, we'll continue our journey with a 3-4 hour drive to the Khongor Sand Dunes. Upon arrival, check in at your homestay, followed by dinner and overnight accommodation.

Today, we'll spend a leisurely day exploring the Khongor Sand Dunes. You'll have the chance to visit the snow-covered dunes and a frozen oasis, as well as enjoy a 1-hour camel ride. As the day draws to a close, take in the breathtaking winter sunset from the top of the dunes.

Today, we'll travel to Bayanzag, also known as the Flaming Cliffs, with a 2-3 hour drive. Upon arrival, we'll have lunch at a guest house or with a nomadic family. Afterward, we'll visit Bayanzag, a significant paleontological site where the first dinosaur fossils and eggs were discovered by American explorer Roy Chapman Andrews. In the late afternoon, we'll continue our journey to Dalanzadgad town for dinner and an overnight stay.

Depending on your departure day, you have the option to catch a one-hour flight back to Ulaanbaatar, available twice a week. Alternatively, you can travel overland for 8 to 9 hours, with a lunch stop along the way. You'll arrive in Ulaanbaatar in the evening, where you'll be transferred to your accommodation. This marks the end of our services.
