Program Description
Details
The land of Genghis Khan, who changed the world as we know it today, is a kaleidoscope of vast steppe (grasslands), beautiful horses, Buddhist temples, camels and nomadic culture. It is a fascinating history lesson about a famous warrior who conquered the largest contiguous empire in history and introduced international mail, government and other mechanisms impacting our lives today. We'll visit nomadic ger camps, ride camels and horses, and enjoy the beauty of the Orkhon valley, immersing ourselves in this ancient yet modern culture.
