About this trip
Escape the noise and comforts of modern life and challenge yourself to experience winter in the Mongolian countryside.
Nomadic Diary is not an ordinary sightseeing tour. It is an opportunity to slow down, step outside your comfort zone and discover how Mongolian nomadic families live through the long, cold winter.
Travel like a local on public buses, stay with herding families in traditional Mongolian gers and become part of their daily routine. Chop firewood, keep the stove burning, collect water, feed and water livestock, herd sheep and help prepare traditional homemade meals.
Winter life in Mongolia is simple but demanding. Days revolve around caring for animals, keeping warm and working together. Without the usual conveniences of modern life, you will discover the importance of practical skills, family cooperation and adapting to nature.
Along the journey, experience the snow-covered landscapes of the Orkhon Valley, visit the frozen Orkhon Waterfall, discover the historic Erdene Zuu Monastery and explore the winter scenery of Elsen Tasarkhai and Khustai National Park.
More than a holiday, Nomadic Diary is a chance to challenge yourself, experience a different way of life and discover the value of simplicity.
Come not just to see Mongolia, but to live it.
