Experience incredible Mongolia
Mongolia is on our bucket list, and we believe it's on yours too – and for good reason. As one of the last frontiers, this country offers endless wilderness, nomadic culture, horses, and landscapes that are out of this world. Mongolia stands as one of the world's least populated nations, about 4.8 times the size of Norway (3.5 times the size of Sweden) and one of the countries with the highest horse-to-human ratios on Earth. A new luxury lodge has opened in ‘The Land of Eternal Blue Sky’, and we have a dream offer for you: Yeruu Lodge.
Norwegian architect Eirik Gulsrud has created something best described as a luxury lodge in the wild. This 'nomad camp' is beautifully situated on the banks of the Yeruu River, surrounded by mountains and lush green hills. Here, you can enjoy the edge of civilization with all the comforts of modern-day life. The traditional Mongolian yurts (ger in Mongolian) are equipped with rainforest showers, bathtubs, and comfortable king size beds.
After a long day of hiking in the mountains or horseback riding, you can indulge in a three-course meal in one of the finest restaurants in the country, all the while enjoying the view from the four-meter-high floor-to-ceiling windows that separate the modern restaurant building from the wilderness outside.
Since this establishment is the brainchild of a Scandinavian, their restaurant offers a fusion of local cuisine and Western dishes. Yeruu Lodge also serves one the country's best pizzas with their three wood-fired pizza ovens. Additionally, they strive to source most of their produce locally and of the highest quality – a rarity in these parts of Mongolia.
Once your meal is consumed, you can gaze at the clearest starry night you'll ever see by the bonfire on the riverbank. Local musicians will perform traditional songs, which include the horse fiddle and throat singing. It's as magical as it sounds.
In collaboration with Yeruu Lodge, we have crafted a one-week adventure package that offers the best of Mongolia. We’ll take care of you from the moment you land at the international airport in Ulaanbaatar, and the whole stay until your departure. Our promise is an action-packed week that you'll never forget.
Enjoy guided hiking tours in the surrounding mountains, horseback riding in landscapes that will take your breath away, visit our nomad friends, and get an authentic feel for life on the Mongolian steppes. You'll also experience kayaking on the Yeruu River, followed by a calming swim after a sauna session.
We guarantee you a proper off-grid luxury experience! This exclusive offer is bookable now, with stays starting from July 1st, 2024 until September 30th. Please contact us for information on availability in other months or if you're traveling with children.
