En-route we want to see many places along the south road and perhaps the western Gobi, and then once we've reached Tavan Bogd, do some exploring for a fair few days. After there, we want to complete a big loop back to UB by taking in the north western parts of Mongolia. As for destinations, we are flexible, but we must see Tavan BogdNational Park - one of the most remote and last true wildernesses in the world! We have made some enquiries and we should be able to hire a jeep (max 4 people - so us + 2 more) for less than $90 a day including English speaking driver and fuel. Food, I don't think will add too much to this price. We will predominantly camp, as opposed to stay in gers to save cost. Put that into perspective; if you are one person, you might only have to pay ~$30 a day for the trip of a lifetime! - and if you are two people, then even less! As for us: - We are an easy going couple, ages: 26 and from the UK. Been together for many years - never argue! - We love to travel way off the beaten track where possible and take an appreciative view of the cultures we encounter - Love the outdoors, camping, hiking, trekking, climbing mountains etc - Love meeting new and interesting people and trying to understand the world through others eyes Looking for like-minded people! If you might be interested please message us. Any questions, please ask! Look forward to hearing from anyone Best regards Lee & Caroline Mell Mell Post Count: 13894 Msg: #2 227 days ago, April 11th 2009 | Hello Lee | I moved this to the Looking for Travel Companions Forum.

We would love to read about your exploits or see some pictures if you do decide to do this trip in May. Thanks! | VK Number of Users: 3 | Number of Posts: 3 | |||||||||||
