We have been invited into Mongolia’s nomadic communities. Your guides have long-standing relationships with the eagle hunters and camel herders, meaning you’ll have exclusive access to these fascinating communities.
We will travel to Ölgii province to meet the eagle hunters, their families, and their eagles and journey into the mountains to watch them exercise their birds.
We will also travel into the heart of the Gobi desert to meet the families of traditional Bactrian camel herders. Here, you will have a rare opportunity to photograph the camel herders and camels as they walk in the picturesque Khongor sands in southern Mongolia.
