Overview
The Tsaatan, also known as the reindeer tribe, are one of the last groups of nomadic reindeer herders in the world. With only about 400 Dukha people across 70-80 families, their unique culture is among the most critically endangered on the planet.
About the Journey:
- This two-week adventure will take us deep into the Taiga of northern Mongolia, where we will travel using a combination of car, horseback, and trekking. Along the way, weβll stop for sightseeing and fully immerse ourselves in the rich culture of Mongolia by staying with local families and at traditional ger hostels. Itβs the perfect way to truly experience Mongolian life!

REVIEWS
Had a wonderful time on the Urban hike - seeing places I would have never gone on my own. Also enjoyed the tasty treats provided. Listened to interesting stories and learned more history. I highly recommend it. Bow is super helpful and quick to respond as well <3 I look forward to doing another one in the future!
I booked to go on the canoe tour of Thonburi and it was incredible. It surpassed all expectations. The organisation was fantastic and thorough and communications were smooth and easy. Khun Bow and Khun Sun were perfect hosts, very welcoming and friendly and incredibly knowledgable about the area that we visited. I
ve been living in Thailand for 5 years and I learnt so much on this trip! I can, without reservation, recommend this tour. It was amazing and I will be booking more π
Fun, adventurous and insightful one-of-a-kind service in Bangkok. I have been to several meetups from Bow throughout the last year and always had a nice time. Everything runs smoothly, is well prepared and easy to join. Looking forward to many more great trips!
Their professionalism, originality and fun activities! You can spend a journey off the beaten tracks learning many interesting details and interacting with local communities. Definitely worthy!
I've gone on three trips and enjoyed all of them. They were all to really gorgeous places in Thailand that tourists usually never hear of. Great way to visit unique places and meet cool people
Awesome trip. Genuine personal experiences shared that made me feel a little closer again to the heartbeat of Bangkok. A trip I will do again because there was so much to experience and absorb.
It was a nice trip. I really like it. Organizer(K. Bow) is very friendly.
An amazing experience π
