Travel story
To the endlessly vast land of Mongolia.
This is a special journey to experience the nomadic culture and the great outdoors with all your senses while visiting deserts, steppes, and historical heritage.

In the semi-Gobi (mini Gobi), ride camels across sand dunes to witness the magical scenery dyed by the sunset and the star-filled sky. Stay at a tourist camp to enjoy a sense of silence and the scale of the land that you cannot feel in the city.

In the ancient capital Karakorum (Kharakhorum), visit the World Heritage Erdene Zuu Monastery and the Karakorum Museum for a deep learning experience about the history of the Mongol Empire and Buddhist culture.

At Terelj National Park, experience horseback riding on vast grasslands, visit the Turtle Rock and temples, and feel the Mongolian way of life living in harmony with nature.

At the Genghis Khan Equestrian Statue, enjoy a special moment to learn about the history of Mongolia’s hero while taking in the spectacular views over the grasslands. There are also unique experiences such as commemorative photos with camels and birds of prey.

A Japanese-speaking guide accompanies the tour, so even first-time visitors to Mongolia can feel at ease.
This is a 7-day trip that goes beyond sightseeing, leaving a deep impression as an "experiential journey" to encounter Mongolia’s unique nature and culture.
Signature points
Experience camels, sunset, and starry skies on the semi-Gobi dunes
Explore the desert on camelback in the mini-Gobi dunes. The dunes dyed by the sunset are breathtaking, and at night a sky full of stars spreads above. Stay at a tourist camp and enjoy an extraordinary experience with the support of a Japanese-speaking guide, so you can relax and fully enjoy it.
Experience nomadic culture in the historic city of Kharakhorum
In Kharakhorum, located at the site of Mongolia’s first capital Karakorum, visit Erdene Zuu Monastery and the Karakorum Museum. Enjoy a richly atmospheric walk as you feel the scenery of the ancient capital, the solemnity of Buddhist temples, and the breath of nomadic culture.
Savor nature with grasslands, spectacular views, and horseback riding
Experience horseback riding on the grasslands of Terelj National Park. Visit Turtle Rock and Amarbayasgalant Temple, and enjoy magnificent views from the observation platform at the Genghis Khan Equestrian Statue. You can also take commemorative photos with camels and birds of prey, and with a Japanese-speaking guide accompanying you, you can comfortably experience nature and history.
