China & Mongolia Heartlands

Duration:
20 days
Travel Period:

Overview

Next-door neighbours, yet worlds apart – China and Mongolia offer two of the most extraordinary and contrasting adventures on Earth. In China, you'll journey through millennia of epic history, standing in awe before monuments that have defined civilisations. Cross the border into Mongolia and the world transforms entirely: an endless sky stretches over vast, untouched steppe, where nomadic traditions remain as timeless as the land itself.

This carefully crafted journey brings both worlds together in one seamless adventure. Travel in true comfort from start to finish, guided by our expert National Guides who bring each destination to life. Sleep beneath Mongolian stars in traditional Gers with en-suite bathrooms, and return home having ticked not one, but two bucket-list countries off your list – each utterly unforgettable in its own right.

Tour highlights:
  • Terracotta Army,
  • Great Wall of China,
  • Terelj National Park,
  • Wild Horses of Khustai,
Tour experiences:
  • Discover Xian's Beer Scene, Swap tea for hops with a visit to one of Xian's local breweries. Take a look at how the beers are brewed, then sample a glass or two fresh from the source.
  • Sleep under the stars, Experience the nomadic lifestyle in comfort, sleeping in traditional ger camps with private en suite bathrooms, then unwind and recharge beneath the breathtaking, star-filled skies of the vast Mongolian steppes.
  • Share a meal with nomadic family, Spend some time with a nomadic family, learning a little about their unique way of life. Together you will prepare a traditional Mongolian meal, them guiding you through the preparations and process, before you all sit down to eat together.
