From the first would of Europe to the Last Frontier of Mongolia, a route travelled by a select few. Exploring the Caucuses and the Silk Road as well as the wilderness of Mongolia. This route had so much to offer, our dates also allow us to be in Ulaan Baatar, the capital of Mongolia in time for the annual Naadam Festival. Seen as the highlight of the Mongolian festival calendar and dating back to 209BC it is the coming together of the 7 Mongol tribes crossed with the Nomad Olympics. This is no normal journey be one of the lucky few to travel along this epic route!
Also worth considering is returning from or going to Mongolia by the Trans Siberian Railway route.
