English-speaking cycling guides, a Russian 4WD support van with bike racks, kitchen and camping crew, and pre-arranged accommodations are included.
Nights alternate between tents at prepared camps (with shower and toilet tents) and tourist ger camps; expect simple but functional facilities.
Travel insurance covering medical evacuation and outdoor cycling is recommended; check standard travel health advice for Mongolia well before departure.
