There was no pressure to be on time for anything; in fact Mongolian time should be adopted in more countries!

We travelled in a trusty van that took us to the nooks and crannies of the hillside, showing us the most glorious views backed by a blue sky dotted with cotton wool clouds. The scenery changed again and again, each hill and bend gave us a different feast for our eyes. This was a magnificent country that would stir all our senses.

If you’re not cut out to do without home comforts – washing, proper toilets, bed, heat – then this is not the trip for you. Part of what we wanted to experience was a complete break from our daily routine and to test our ability to deal with different privations. The most difficult adjustment was probably wild toileting but even this became easy after the first day. It really is the only way to travel, the freedom you feel, the complete change of lifestyle, the generosity of the people were all contributing to making this a magical journey.

We will return to this magnificent country, there is still so much to see.

Maybe you too will change your lives a little and take an ‘off the beaten track’ trip of a lifetime with WAM, and experience for yourselves something entirely different that will become a memory for a lifetime.
