Mongolia Travel Programs - Rustic Pathways

Enthusiasm of the staff. Hike through the snow to the monastery & hiking in the national park. Sleeping in the Gers/Waking up in the ger. Being able to do different things everyday was so cool and got to experience a lot

Learning about the history of Mongolia and culture, visiting the local family and understanding how they live Living in the gers was my most memorable experience during my stay with Rustic Pathways in Mongolia.

I loved experiencing in the traditional nomads life in the yurts and hiking on ice and snow. Also getting to spend time with local kids and having time to get closer to people we went together was amazing

It was so much fun, I enjoyed visiting the ger camps and seeing snow!!! I liked meeting new people and building bonds with teachers and the rustic pathways leaders too. It was peaceful enjoying the views

If I have to answer, what my most memorable thing during my stay in Mongolia was, it would be Everything, especially the activities (archery and cultural games, etc) the leaders were amazing (shoutout to Josh and Chimgee)

This was the best school trip ever. I thought the conservation work was real and I liked trying local food and yak milk. It's a nice combo of doing good and having fun. I hope we can get to go back next year. I want to see different cultures, learn video/tape editing to record experience.

This was a weird trip. It was so short but it was a world away from my home. I liked the horses, but wish we could have ridden them ourselves instead of just looking at them on display. Also, it was cold in the housing but it was fun to go and do

This was a mind-blowing time volunteering in Mongolia! It felt like this was my home from day one. Anna and the team felt like they were really taking care of us from the moment we got there. Plus, Vin was really cool. The whole trip was amazing and I can't wait to go back! If you want real cultural immersion, this is it! I feel more aware of my surroundings and my needs vs my wants

I loved getting up close and experiencing the Mongolian culture. I made memories I'll never forget. If you want a meaningful trip do this. I'd do it again in a heartbeat! I feel like I better appreciate other people and cutlures around the world even people who don't have as much as I do.

I had an awesome week on my trip! There were lots of class options and fun local activities. Blin and Deng were so friendly as leaders. The whole trip was amazing and I can't wait to go back! Thank you for this

I was my first time traveling alone and going on a trip with my friend. I want to say that they along with Rustic pathways, I made very memorable memories in Mongolia. It was a very special trip for me.

Wow, this program is truly an incredible experience! I am sure it would be very difficult to arrange a unique trip like this one. We saw so much of Mongolia. Going in to the program. I didn't know much about Mongolia. Now I know so much about Mongolian culture, traditions and history. We saw so much natural beauty in the country and got to see how locals live out there. Did amazing service in addition to the cool activities too.
