Australia’s leading Asia travel specialist, Travel Indochina, has confirmed a guaranteed departure for its exclusive Trans-Mongolian Adventure, and to celebrate, is offering a $200 discount per person for trips booked before the sale closing date of 2 June 2011.

Departing 2 July 2011, the 17 day journey will operate just once in 2011 to coincide with the nation’s most important and colourful event, the Naadam Festival and will give travellers a unique opportunity to meet local reindeer herders, stay in traditional “gers” and ride rare camels through Mongolia’s wild landscape.

Travel Indochina’s Managing Director, Paul Hole, says it is an exciting addition to the Travel Indochina stable of life changing travel experiences.

“Naadam Festival is one of the truly exceptional festivals of the world that is a must-see bucket list item for adventure travellers.

This one-off exploratory journey will permit passengers a unique glimpse at a decreasingly rare way of life – travelling as the locals do atop a rare two-humped Bactrian camel as they travel across the sand dunes from the edge of the Gobi Desert into Central Mongolia – before visiting a local family of reindeer herders, the Tsaschin.”

The trip includes 6 nights’ hotel accommodation, 9 nights’ accommodation in comfortable “ger” camps, one overnight train journey, one domestic flight, all road transport in air-conditioned vehicles, all sightseeing as specified, entrance fees, Western tour leader, local English-speaking guides throughout, airport transfers and daily breakfast, 10 lunches and 12 dinners.
