Spending your time with local family offers you an opportunity to get close to the nomadic people and observe them more vividly. Staying in a Ger is a completely different experience which only found in Mongolia. The majority of the nomadic families do have spare yurt (Ger) for you to sleep. During this tour, you will also have sightseeing in the capital city, Ulaanbaatar, and other attractions en route to the Terelj National Park.    

Generally, the Nomadic camp moves from one place to another 2-3 times a year. They move to Nomadic herders rear domestic animals like horses, goats, sheep, yaks, and camels.

Comfortable hiking shoes, quality socks (quality socks are recommended), and head covering (insulating caps and brimmed caps designed to block sunlight) are essential. Outer layers should be made of waterproof, wind-blocking material such as Gore-Tex. Sunglasses and sun-block cream, drinking water bottles, torchlight, foot care items such as foot powder and Moleskin, insect repellent, and personal hygiene items are also necessary.
