More information about accommodation during our tours in Mongolia ...
This tour has been specially created for fit travellers, who usually hike and are novice riders.
We advise to take a few horse riding lessons before leaving, in order to be able to control your horse and enjoy you ride during the tour.
"This trek in Mongolia will remain an unforgettable experience, as it was a real immersion in Mongolian culture and a discovery of magnificent landscapes. The organisation was perfect, the team was attentive and very caring.
The trek was very natural and superb. The Orkhon valley was magnificent, although very busy given the time of year (Naadam).
A very patient horse, ideal for my beginner level. Saddlery in good condition and sufficient riding time.
Accommodation in very comfortable tents and yurts.
Hearty, varied and delicious meals.
Dondov was an excellent interpreter, cultured and keen to pass on her country's culture. Many thanks." - Céline B. (July 2019)
- "A unique and unforgettable trip, as much for the natural beauty of Mongolia, for the adventure (bivouac, 80 km trek, 100 km horse riding... we get out of our comfort zone... and it feels so good) as for the encounters and bonds forged with our crack team! The return to real life is difficult, but the memories are many! THANK YOU! " - Clémence R. (June 2019)
- This trip was just magical! The Trek and Horse combination allowed us to have a good balance and take full advantage of the extraordinary landscapes of the Orkhon Valley and the Khangai Mountains.
We were treated to a 3-star bivouac where everything was put together to make us as comfortable as possible (quality mattresses, extra duvets, etc.). The spots were always chosen so that every morning we woke up in an incredible setting...
Finally, this trip wouldn't have been the same without our crack trio. Our interpreter, our guide and our driver made our trip the best ever! We shared some really good times with them, with laughter, card games, cooking workshops... Simple moments of happiness that we'll miss when we get back to France!
Many thanks for this PERFECT organisation!" - Elise R. (May 2019)
-We had an unforgettable experience in Mongolia. The choice of trekking/horse-riding is a good compromise for appreciating the vast, diverse and varied expanses. The land dotted with edelweiss, herds of horses, yaks, sheep and goats is a real pleasure for the eyes and the soul. The Mongols are very welcoming, respectful and playful, with a keen sense of hospitality. The RANDO CHEVAL team was very professional and reassuring. Despite the language barrier, we were able to establish a rapport that made our stay as enjoyable as possible. We advise you to be in good physical and mental shape for this trip. A big thank you to all the Mongolian team on site and to our English-speaking guide, a real well of knowledge and attention." - Dany & Katie (August 2018)
- "An overwhelming encounter with the various nomadic families. A sense of sharing that is rare with us. The people were very at ease and made you feel at ease. The richness of their culture and way of life that I will try to reproduce and share in France! Thank you to everyone who made this trip possible." - Nathan E. (August 2017)
- "It was very good!" - Xavier D. (Sept. 2015)
- "We had an extraordinary trip. Not only are the landscapes breathtaking, but the relationship we had with our guide Boogii, our two drivers Toogii and Suren, our cook Seegii and our two equestrian guides Dorjoo and Taivnaa were rich. Without speaking the language, we shared many things, including sports games, card games... We quickly became close friends and helped each other out all the time. The horse-riding part was a great moment for everyone. The guides put everyone at ease. We did some great gallops. A must for everyone". - Cécile and Eloi (August 2015)
- I loved this trip. As much for the wide open spaces and magnificent landscapes as for meeting the Mongols and nomads. For my part, it was the human encounters (local population) made during this stay that made it so beautiful.
I loved the Randocheval team on site. They were young, dynamic and really nice (we were all in the same age group, which meant we got to know each other better).
- Macha: a real driver, I climb into his truck with my eyes closed! A man you can trust
- Zotla: an outstanding cook, a lovely young woman with a great sense of humour,
- Jensen: great horses, a gentle and very touching young man,
- Boogii: a lovely girl, kind, very available, smiling and an angel of patience,
- Timé: a very warm welcome.
In my opinion, the fact that we were only 3 tourists in a team of 4 on the Randocheval side enabled us to get closer to them and learn more about the Mongols (than if we'd been in a group of 9 or 10 people). I wish them all the best of luck.
As far as the technical facilities, the equipment and the comfort are concerned, I have no comments to make as I think everything was perfect. The only small area for improvement I can think of would be the geo-location. A slightly more detailed map to help you find your way around and locate all the points of interest would be a plus, but then again...
I really enjoyed the tour, and it was a real eye-opener.
All this means that I give very good feedback on Randocheval to anyone who asks." - Emilie (August 2014)
