    Day 1 - 2 Transfer by car

    We will pick you up at your hotel, or at the airport / train station depending on your needs in the early morning to drive to Hustai National Park (about 90km). Here we will stop to see a short documentary explaining how the park was born and the history of the famous takhi wild horses and we will have lunch.

    Afterwards we will take a walk through the park and we will travel to various parts by car in the most interesting places, continuing on foot. We will leave our things to the nomads in the ger and we will make their acquaintance: they will welcome us gently as usual. A good hot tea and dish of noodle or ravioli with meat and vegetables are waiting for us.

    We will stay in a wild environment for two days to admire nature and see the stars hosted by the nomads in the ger. On the second day we will ride for an hour in the park, and then, after lunch, we will return to the capital.
