Accommodation
is in the traditional Mongolian dwelling, a ger, or in lightweight three-man tents and will be specified in the itinerary. The ger camps provide basic but quite comfortable accommodation. There are basic showers and washing facilities available and hot water is supplied to all Gers. The ger camps provide all bedding, and
clients will not be expected to bring their own sleeping bags if they are staying in ger camps.
The tents are either 2 or 3 person tents. We will try to provide clients traveling alone with their own tent. A sleeping mat will be provided to each person staying in a tent, but clients are asked to bring their own sleeping bags.

Cancellations
If you booked a stay and needed to cancel it, you must notify it by emailing us as soon as possible. There will be service charge of US$100 per person on cancellations received at least sixty days prior to the booked tour departure. We set up the possible repayment by bank transfer, in the eight days of our receipt of the customer’s bank information. You will bear the possible transfer fees.
If you cancel your booking after you have paid in full the following cancellation charges will be made:
- for cancellation up to 30 days before travel 20% of the price
- for cancellations 29-22 days prior to departure 30% of the price
- for cancellations 21-15 days prior to departure 40% of the price

these dates refer to the date we receive written notification of your cancellation. We strongly recommend you protect yourself by purchasing travel insurance. We have very rarely had to cancel a tour but reserve the right to do so for any reason. If the tour is cancelled by us, all payments will be returned in full.
The food on camping trips is from the best produce available, and the menus are possibly the most varied you will find in Mongolia. Mongolia is mostly a non-vegetarian country, but we can cater to vegetarians upon request. However, we require as much early notice as possible.
Our cooks are all Mongolian and they have a wealth of experience in catering for the western traveler. You will also eat some Mongolian food on trips. We try to buy as much produce as possible from local people, though there is not a lot of variety. Alcohol is not provided on the treks, but clients are free to bring their own.
On trips staying in ger camps, food is provided by the camp. Again, the cooks are Mongolian but the food tends to be a little less varied with a strong emphasis on meat, rice, pasta, and potatoes. Vegetarians can be accommodated but will probably end up eating a lot of eggs.
