Mon Altai Tour
A local team in Ölgii creating private, responsible journeys through the Altai Mountains of western Mongolia.
Mon Altai Tour is a locally based travel company specializing in authentic and meaningful journeys across Bayan-Ölgii and the Altai Mountains of Western Mongolia.
We believe that the best way to discover the Altai is not simply to visit its famous landscapes, but to experience the people, cultures, traditions, and everyday life that make this region unique.
Our journeys take travellers beyond the usual tourist routes — into remote mountain valleys, vast open steppe, pristine lakes, glaciers, ancient petroglyph landscapes, and traditional nomadic communities.
As a local team, we have a deep connection with the people and landscapes of Western Mongolia. We work closely with local families, experienced drivers and guides, Kazakh eagle hunters, horsemen, and communities across the region.
This local knowledge allows us to create experiences that are genuine, flexible, and connected to the natural rhythm of life in the Altai.
Depending on your interests, you can stay with a nomadic family in a traditional ger, share homemade local food, ride horses with experienced Kazakh horsemen, meet eagle hunters and their golden eagles, explore ancient petroglyphs, camp beneath the stars, photograph local cultures, or travel deep into the mountains by 4WD.
The Altai is a place where extraordinary landscapes and living cultures exist side by side.
Our tours explore destinations such as Altai Tavan Bogd National Park, Khüiten Peak, Potanin Glacier, Khoton and Khurgan Lakes, as well as remote valleys, rivers, waterfalls, archaeological sites, and seasonal nomadic camps.
But the journey is about more than destinations. It is about the experiences along the way — meeting a local family, sharing a cup of tea inside a ger, watching an eagle hunter prepare his bird, riding across an open valley, discovering ancient rock art, or sitting beneath a sky filled with stars.
We organize our journeys with respect for local communities, cultural traditions, animals, and the natural environment.
We believe that responsible tourism should benefit both travellers and the communities they visit. That is why we work with local people and adapt our experiences to their natural pace rather than creating artificial or rushed encounters.
Our private and flexible arrangements allow each journey to be adapted according to your interests, available time, physical ability, season, weather conditions, and preferred style of travel.
Whether you are looking for an adventurous 4WD expedition, a cultural journey, a photography trip, horseback riding, eagle hunting experiences, trekking, fishing, or simply a peaceful escape into nature, we are here to help you discover the Altai in your own way.
