Russia & Mongolia Overland

Commencing our trip in the historic city of Helsinki, we travel overland across the giant landmass of Asia, Russia, Kazakhstan, Mongolia and China. We travel south across Russia, bound for the steppes of Kazakhstan and the shrinking Aral Sea before entering the wild Tian Shan range - the 'Mountains of Heaven'. We camp in Siberia's Altai before crossing into Mongolia to stay in a traditional yurt (or 'ger') with nomadic reindeer herders. From here it's a stunning overland trip across the forbidding Gobi Desert to China, visiting the Great Wall at Mutianyu before heading to Beijng and journey's end.
