Overview
Discover Mongolia is happy to welcome families to Mongolia and we can provide a wonderful adventure holiday. The Khuvsgul Lake National Park has all the elements you need for a fun-filled time - exotic, untouched nature, spectacular scenery, and exhilarating activities.
Why not try trekking or horse riding around the huge park, which contains mountain scenery, wooded forest steppe, and wide plains? Or if you prefer calmer pursuits, there's great fishing in the lake or wildlife to look out for. The Tsaatan tribe of nomads have grazing rights for their reindeer herds here in the park and you can meet the reindeer people on this trip.

I spent two weeks traveling around and filming Mongolia. I'm very glad I chose to enlist the help of Discover Mongolia travel - They are the warmest, lovely people ever! We were able to see so much of the beautiful country - Lake Khuvsgul, Horgo Volcano, Temples, Gobi Desert, Local Festivals, Eagle Valley, and soo many more.
Nothing was too much trouble and i'd highly recommend these guys if it's for a custom tour, or one of the many predefined tours that they offer. I can't thank them enough for helping me with my film. I look forward to coming back next year for another visit!
I spent 2 weeks touring wonderful Mongolia in August and it was a fantastic experience. I have seen places that I didn't even think could exist on earth and our perfect guide Gantuul (Gana) made everything really unique. Impeccable organization and great people. Highly recommended.
Thank you for introducing us to Mongolia and getting us in at the very end of the season! Our tour itinerary was nicely customized for us and Togosoo and Nandai were very capable. I loved the different Ger camps (even though it was freezing cold overnight! The wood stoves are wonderful), and it was rather nice for everything to be so empty of other tourists.

Good to know
- The best time to make this trip
May to September is the best season, with the peak season in July for the Naadam Festival. July and August are also the wettest months of the year but be assured, our climate is such that you will still have many sunny days at this time. The best time to visit the Gobi is June or September.
- Accommodation:
We believe that comfortable, welcoming accommodation is vital to the enjoyment of your trip. You will be staying in a standard 3-4 star hotel in Ulaanbaatar and a tourist ger camp (traditional dwelling) with currency (220V), shower and other useful services (2 to 4 people per ger) in the countryside. All accommodation offered by Discover Mongolia is personally checked by our staff to ensure high standards.
- Meals:
In Ulaanbaatar, you will be dining at fine European and Asian cuisine restaurants. Mutton, beef, rice, and noodles form the basis of the Mongolian diet, so your meals will be based around this. However, the trail rations may include vegetables, eggs, peanut butter, cheese and sometimes yak! On some days there will be lunchboxes from tourist camps. It is good food and our experience has been that guests are happy with this arrangement. Please let us know in advance if you are a vegetarian. Alcohol is not provided on the trip but tourists are free to bring their own.
- Transport:
Discover Mongolia use the highest level, latest model, air-conditioned private vans or 4WD vehicles for the maximum comfort on your touring days. A day's drive in the countryside will be approx 200-250km.
- Personal things to bring with you:
Warm thin layers of clothing are the best such as bring a waterproof jacket, and a hat and headscarf to protect you from the sun and winds. Don't forget insect repellent, sun cream, lip-gloss, water purifying tablets and first aid kit (medicine for headache, cold, diarrhea, runny nose; bandages; any medicine prescribed for you ). All your camera equipment.
