Eagle Tour Itinerary

Day 1-2 ULAANBAATAR

Your safety and health is our higest priority and therefore we are applying the newest COVID-19 hygiene standards at all times. After landing you'll be picked up by one of our Followthetracks/SIXT staff members - simply look out for the sign in the arrival hall. You'll be brought to a 3* hotel in Ulaanbaatar and handed out a local SIM card with call and internet package. Before the road adventure starts, we will not only explore Ulan Bator, the vibrant capital of Mongolia but also dive into your own camera gear and prepare you for the upcoming photography days.

Day 3-4 WHITE STUPA & CANYON

You will drive a paved road to southern Mongolia before leaving the beaten paths and going off-road for the following days. Max will guide you to some incredible places like White Stupa and Yolyn Am Canyon where you'll get used to the wilderness in a blink of an eye. Sit around the camp fires and let your soul wander off under a crystal clear sky.

Day 5-7 FLAMING CLIFFS & GOBI

Next stop: Flaming Cliffs – an incredible cliff structure which looks like it is on fire when the sun sets. At Khongoryn Els you have the chance to ride camels and photograph them during sunset in the desert. Meet Zorigoo – the camel herder – from Max Masterclass videos.

Day 8-9 BUUNTSAAGAN LAKE

After an adventurous night in another canyon overlooking Gobi Desert, you will find yourself camping next to Buuntsaagan Lake, a unique place which attracts thousands of birds, horses and camels. Get ready for a long trip across the steppes.

Day 10-11 STEPPES & KHOVD

It might sound strange to you but the most amazing part of traveling across Mongolia is the drive through the endless steppes, seeing the landscapes change quickly and forgetting about the rush and stress at home to clear your mind completely. You will also meet a real nomad family, stay with them, help them herd the animals and learn about their culture and music.

Day 12-14 ALTAI & EAGLE HUNTERS

Snowy peaks await you in the Altai Mountains where you’ll stay with the legendary eagle hunters and get introduced to their Kazakh food and music. Ride horses, watch the eagle hunter training their majestic birds and get amazing portraits during sunset and sunrise. The last night you’ll spend in the capital of the region, Ulgii, and visit with Max some of his favourite spots to shoot sunset over the city.

Day 15-17 Across The Country

Embark on your last long ride - back across the entire country, passing volcanoes and Ghenggis Khan's ancient capital. Later on you will end your Mentorship experience with Max during a tasty goodbye dinner before a driver will pick you up at the hotel and bring you to the airport the next morning. In case you need a PCR test for your departure, we will of course assist you and help you organising.
