After meeting your guide at 08:30 am at your hotel or another Ulaanbaatar location of your choice, board the vehicle and head west to the northern part of the Gobi, to Gurvanbulag, where you will stay in a guest ger alongside a nomadic family. On arrival, enter the family ger and experience nomadic hospitality – sample milk tea, homemade yoghurts, and curds, learning about the nomadic way of life and your hosts’ traditions. In the afternoon, if you are up for it, ride a horse to the nearby dunes – or you can walk if you prefer. In the evening, enjoy a traditional nomadic meal of Buuz (steamed dumplings) or Khuushuur (fried dumplings) – you can also help with cooking if you want.
