Top Ulaanbaatar Camel Rides

The Gobi Desert proper is more than 400 miles (644 kilometers) from Ulaanbaatar. But for a short trip the “Semi-Gobi” desert in central Mongolia delivers sand dunes, oases, and nomads. On this overnight tour, ride a camel to the Elsen Tasarkhai sand dunes, spend the night with a nomadic family, watch wild horses in Hustai National Park, and meet Mongolian horsemen. Your tour includes hotel pickup, door-to-door transportation, and most meals.
