Mongolia tours from Singapore

Mongolia tour package from singapore.

Traveling to Mongolia from Singapore offers a fascinating journey filled with cultural richness, breathtaking landscapes, and unforgettable experiences.

Here’s a detailed guide to help you plan your trip:

Flight options from singapore to ulaanbaatar (capital city of mongolia).

There are multiple flight options to reach Mongolia from Singapore. The most convenient route usually involves a connecting flight from Singapore Changi Airport to Chinggis Khan International Airport in Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia’s capital city through Seoul (South Korea), or through Beijing (China). Several airlines offer connecting flights, including Air China, Korean Air and MIAT Mongolian Airline.

Visa Requirements:

Singaporean passport holders are generally required to obtain a visa before entering Mongolia. You can apply for a tourist visa through the Embassy of Mongolia in Singapore or via reputable travel agencies. It is advisable to check the visa requirements and processing time well in advance before your trip.

Best Time to Visit Mongolia for Singaporeans:

Mongolia’s weather is characterized by extreme seasons. The best time to visit is during the summer months, from June to August, when the weather is pleasant and ideal for outdoor activities, including trekking and exploring the vast landscapes. However, if you’re interested in experiencing winter activities like Eagle hunting tours or attending the famous Eagle festival, Ice Festival, visiting between The end of September and March would be ideal.

Duration and Itinerary in Mongolia:

The recommended duration for a trip to Mongolia is at least 10 days to fully immerse yourself in the country’s natural wonders and cultural treasures. Here’s a suggested itinerary:

Start your journey in Ulaanbaatar, where you can explore the city’s historical sites, such as Gandan Monastery, the National Museum, and the bustling Narantuul Market.

Next, venture into the beautiful wilderness of Terelj National Park, located just outside the city. Enjoy horseback riding, visit unique rock formations like Turtle Rock, and experience the traditional nomadic lifestyle by staying in a ger camp.

Journey towards the vast Gobi Desert, where you can witness towering sand dunes, encounter the famous Mongolian Bactrian camels, visit the Flaming Cliffs (Bayanzag), and explore the stunning Yol Valley in Gurvansaikhan National Park.

Head west to Kharkhorin, once the capital of the Mongol Empire. Visit the legendary Erdene Zuu Monastery and explore the ruins of ancient Karakorum.

If you would like to do outdoor activities such as trekking or hiking the best place for visiting would be Altai Tavan Bogd national park in western Mongolian Bayan-Olgii province.

Accommodation:

In major cities like Ulaanbaatar, you’ll find a range of accommodation options, from luxury hotels to budget-friendly guesthouses. When venturing into more remote areas, staying in traditional nomadic ger camps provides an authentic experience. These camps offer comfortable ger (yurt) accommodations, often with shared facilities, allowing you to appreciate the nomadic lifestyle and enjoy the beautiful surroundings.

Transportation:

Domestic flights are available between Ulaanbaatar and various cities within Mongolia, making it easier to explore different regions. For shorter distances, road travel by private car or organized tours is a popular option. It’s advisable to hire experienced drivers or join guided tours to navigate the vast landscapes, especially in remote areas where road conditions can be challenging.

Cultural Etiquette:

Mongolian culture is deeply rooted in nomadic traditions and hospitality. It is customary to greet locals with a slight bow or handshake. When visiting monasteries or religious sites, it’s important to dress modestly and remove your shoes before entering. It’s also polite to ask for permission before taking photos of people, particularly the nomadic communities and their livestock.

With its rugged beauty, rich history, and warm hospitality, Mongolia offers a truly unique and unforgettable travel experience. Remember to plan ahead, pack accordingly for the weather conditions, and embrace the spirit of adventure while immersing yourself in the fascinating Mongolian culture.

CUSTOMER REVIEW

The May trip to Japan “The Best Of Central Honshu”, was a very good experience especially the Alpine Route. This “Premium Tour” small group was very good, from total strangers became good friends. Very Good Food and Hotel arrangements. I would like to compliment Ms Diana Chua, our Singapore Tour Leader, she is pleasant, very caring and helpful. The Japan Tour Guide Philip Tan was good too.

As a first-time client of Travel Curators, I did not know what to expect. But by the end of my trip, I was pleasantly surprised with the quality of their service, their systematic planning and especially their responsiveness throughout the trip to last minute requests. They lived up to their billing as a white glove travel concierge service. While I could do my own research and plan a rough itinerary to meet my families’ specific interests, Travel Curators helped tremendously. Thanks to Travel Curators, my family left Japan with many fond memories.”

Had a 12 day private tour to Japan via Dynasty Travel. Overall, a refreshing, memorable and meaningful trip given our focused and free and easy tour. Meticulous and customised arrangements to fulfil our requirements. We thus have a good grasp of both Kyoto and Nagoya, and Japan in general after this trip.

Good food and hotel and itinerary. Their tours are good. Went with them to Turkey in Oct 22.

My husband and I had a wonderful experience to Central Honshu with Dynasty travel in May. Itinerary is good (esp. the Alpine Route!) and not so rushing throughout the trip. Tour leader, Diana, is friendly, well organized and helpful. She attend to our needs from simple things like buying fruits to buying Sake. 🍶😁 Also, Diana always make effort to look out on my elderly sister! Our travelling group were all lovely companions and everybody got along very well – A very comforting feeling! Overall the whole trip was very enjoyable. Good job Dynasty! 👍

Did a Mie/Aichi Japan private trip in early April. Thanks to Stephanie and her team, our needs and interests were met. Fine details like our food and accommodation preference from our previous Shizuoka trip in 2022 were noted. The clam digging experience in Aichi perfecture was definitely a unique birthday gift for my wife. Looking forward to our next trip.

Travel to Mongolia from Singapore

Mongolia is one of the world’s last truly nomadic cultures. For millennia, pastoral herders have lived on almost every corner of Mongolian, moving with their livestock according to the seasons. They still live in traditional felt Ger tents, subsisting on the meat and milk of their animals, and living “as free as the country is wide. In today’s fast changing world, Mongolia is considered as one of the few exotic destinations and a place designed for nature and culture lovers that can offer beautiful unspoiled nature, world’s last truly nomadic culture and unrivalled hospitality which have been kept for centuries.

By AIR : Mongolia is a landlocked country that can be reached either by air or by land. Chinggis Khaan International Airport (ULN) is the major international airport that is located in 15 kilometers southwest of the capital city, Ulaanbaatar.

There are no direct flights and only available below connection flights from Singapore via: – Hong Kong – Ulaanbaatar by MIAT Mongolian Airlines and EZNIS Airways of Mongolia, – Beijing – Ulaanbaatar by Air China – Seoul – Ulaanbaatar by Korean Air

By TRAIN : The legendary Trans-Siberian Railway which is the longest (7925 km) continuous rail line on earth links Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia with Irkutsk and Moscow, Russia and Beijing, China. The journey from Moscow to Ulaanbaatar takes about 5 days, from Irkutsk (Baikal Lake) 24 hours and from Beijing to Ulaanbaatar takes about 28 hours. From the Mongolian steppes to Lake Baikal’s remote shores, and to the Great Wall of China, you can start your adventure at any of these three completely different cultures. More information for this train: click here!

11D North Mongolia Itinerary Under S$4.3k — Experience Nomad Life With Reindeer Herders

Final spots remaining for the upcoming trip happening 22 Oct – 1 Nov 2022! — Sign up here!

We’ve been all over the world, but one country has always captured our imagination.

Mongolia is one of the most interesting and unexplored places on the planet. As the world’s least densely populated country, Mongolia’s untouched landscapes and nomadic culture make it an adventure destination like no other.

If you’re reading this in a stuffy office, maybe this will make you feel better.

Tourism is still very new to Mongolia, having started only 20 years ago. While this makes it somewhat difficult to organise your own trip, Mongolia’s undiscovered nature also adds to its allure.

Located in Northern Asia with China and Russia at its borders, Mongolia has only recently moved past its status as a Soviet-influenced Communist country. Wandering through the districts, you’ll notice an interesting mix of Asian and European influences, from Soviet architecture in the capital to the Buddhist-influenced traditions widely practised.

Away from the capital, you’ll understand why the locals lovingly call their country the “land of the eternal blue sky”. Mongolia’s unique beauty promises breathtaking sights at every turn, with rugged mountains, sparkling lakes, and lush plains. Not only is the scenery picture-perfect, the animals are extremely photogenic too!

P.S. After our previous adventure , we’re leading another expedition to Northern Mongolia! It’s a great introduction to the country with the mystic mountains of Darkhad Valley, and stunning Mongolian Steppe. We’ll also have access to local experiences that most tourists don’t — nomadic life with the Tsaatan reindeers herders, whose rich culture is in danger of disappearing. Join us on our 11-day adventure — read more or sign up now !

So escape the city hustle and venture into the epic Mongolian outdoors with this 11-day itinerary to exotic Mongolia!

Day 1: Explore Mongolia’s Capital, Ulaanbaatar

The adventure begins upon touch down at Chinggis Khaan International Airport , named after the fearsome Genghis Khan, leader of the largest empire in history.

Explore the City Centre , a mish-mash of modern living and ancient tradition. After mining firms discovered trillions’ worth of minerals in the hills, Ulaanbaatar rapidly transformed from a sleepy town to a bustling hub. Chunky Soviet architecture now sits alongside gers (traditional Mongolian tents), while modern cars dodge horses and cattle on the roads.

The capital offers a wide variety of international food options (and even Western-style pubs!), but this is the chance to try authentic Mongolian cuisine, which is hard to find outside the country. Local dishes are designed for the nomadic lifestyle, with lots of nutritious meat and milk.

Feast on buuz (a baseball-shaped steamed dumpling) and khuushuur (a Russian-style flattened dumpling) as you guzzle  airag (a self-brewed alcoholic drink of mare’s milk) or Chinggis-brand vodka, before enjoying your first night in a local hotel.

Day 2 – 4: Journey Into The Mongolian Countryside

Hop on a hardy jeep and zoom through the districts of Khutag-Undur, Murun City and Tsagaan Nuur Sum .

Our journey will bring us across the epic Mongolian Steppe — a massive grassland spanning over 887,300-square-km, from the tip of China’s coastal hills down to southern Siberia. These plains are home to an abundance of wildlife, including sheep, goats, brown-eared pheasants, yaks, and gazelle!

We’ll also be visiting the Murun City Black Market to get any last minute gear for he journey ahead! Here is where you’ll find essentails ranging from warm locally-made jackets for the chilly Mongolian winds, to basic toiletries.

We’ll also pass the mystic  Darkhad Valley  at an altitude of ~1,600m, with the stunning backdrop  Khoridol Saridag  mountain range. Fingers crossed that we’ll get to see wild beasts grazing in the midst!

In the Tsagaan Nuur Sum district, we’ll switch things up from the usual hotels and guesthouses. Our accommodation for the night is a  traditional Mongolian  ger — a portable tent covered with skins or felt — with a nomadic family near the beautiful Dood Tsagaan Lake . If we’re lucky, we’ll even witness a shamanism ritual!

Day 5: Ride A Horse Across Epic Landscapes

It’s the last stretch toward  Khövsgöl Aimag , the northern-most province of Mongolia and territory of the elusive reindeer nomads. But first — a horse-riding expedition across breathtaking valleys, streams, forests, and mountains.

The route to the Tsaatan camp is passable only by horse, and takes anywhere between five to seven hours to complete. That said, the journey will be pleasant, as the sure-footed Mongolian horses are a joy to ride. These horses aren’t your usual breed — they’ve gone through centuries of travelling across the massive steppes, and were a major winning force in the Mongol Empire’s bloody battles.

Upon arrival at the reindeer camp, spend the night in traditional Tsaatan huts , otherwise known as teepees! With zero light pollution in the Mongolian countryside, we’ll get to stargaze under the dazzling night sky.

Day 6:  Experience Life As A Reindeer Nomad

Rise bright and early for a full day with the Tsaatan nomads! For centuries, the Tsaatans have survived off the land, relying on their reindeer for transport, milk, cheese, meat, and even materials like dung for fuel, antlers for tools, and hair for clothes.

The nomad herders are extremely hospitable and enthusiastic about sharing their way of life. Riding and milking reindeer are must-try activities — and we might discover a natural reindeer herder among us!

As one of the few remaining indigenous groups of reindeer herders, the Tsaatans are a disappearing culture due to the dwindling population of reindeer. Today, only about 40 families remain who continue their centuries-old traditions. While their camp is difficult to get to, it’s a priceless opportunity to experience their way of life while it’s still around.

At the end of the day, it’s back to stargazing under teepees — just another regular night in Mongolia!

Day 7 – 8: See Mysterious Runes From The Bronze Age

Share a last cup of salty milk tea before bidding farewell to the reindeer herders. On horseback, we’ll ride across the beautiful Taiga on our return trip to the city.

After a night in a traditional ger , it’s back into our jeep back to Murun City. On the way, we’ll admire the famous Uushigiin Ovor Deer Stones . Dating back to the Bronze Age, these huge sculptures stand in the middle of the steppe, like a marvellous account of everyone who has passed by through the millennia. The runes are carved with ancient symbols and animals, mostly reindeer (hence the name).

After a well-deserved hot shower in the town’s bathhouse, it’s time for a good night’s sleep in a local guesthouse.

Day 9: Be Awed By An Ancient Monastery

Amarbayasgalant Monastery

It’s another day of scenic travel before resting in a  ger  next to an ancient monastery. One of the largest Buddhist monastic centres in Mongolia, the Monastery of Tranquil Felicity  is a truly spectacular sight, with Chinese, Mongolian, and Tibetan-influenced architecture. The grounds sit in the middle of vast plains, with great views of the Mongolian steppes and the Iven Valley .

At almost 300-years-old, the monastery is also a historically-important landmark — it’s one of the rare monasteries that avoided complete destruction by the Soviets during the 1937 Stalinist purges.

Day 10 – 11: Celebrate The End Of An Adventure

After a week adventuring in the wild, it’s back to industrial Ulaanbaatar ! We’ll enjoy a celebratory feast in one of the city’s top restaurants, and hit the shops for genuine Mongolian cashmere and other goodies.

Take in your last sights and sounds of this beautiful country, before checking into a hotel for a hot shower and rest. It’s back home the next day with an early flight from Chinggis Khaan International Airport.
