Responsible Tourism Mongolia
Responsible travel and sustainable tourism is an ethos Nomadic Trails has been committed to since our establishment. Our adventures are designed with the local people, culture and eco-system in mind.
We believe that a successful trip not only delivers a unique and unsurpassable journey for our clients, but that it also benefits the peoples whose lands we are privileged to visit.
Many people living in the developed world feel drawn to visit the world’s great wildernesses and unknown cultures. They look for intriguing lands to view the wildlife, experience traditional ways of life, or simply savour the peace and beauty of wide-open spaces.
They seek new experiences and a wider understanding of the world we share, and are prepared to travel the world to find them – and there is absolutely nothing wrong with this desire. However, the growth of such tourism can threaten the very fragile beauty of these very areas that those of us with an adventurous spirit are searching for.
the right circumstances tourism can promote respect for different cultures and encourage people to care about what happens to others in faraway countries, it can create jobs and put money into local economies, as well as helping rural and indigenous communities preserve their culture. These right circumstances can exist if all involved in the tourism industry behave conscientiously, or ‘responsibly’. Nomadic Trails wants to do all it can to promote the growth of positive tourism, and as such the ‘Responsible Tourism’ ethic is at the heart of all that we do.

Some code of Responsible Tourism in Mongolia
- Always show respect for local people; dress appropriately in public and at places of worship and please seek permission before taking a persons photo or video footage.
- Tip camp/hotel staff appropriately, many have a central tips collection box so it can be fairly distributed or invested for the benefit of all staff. Realise that a single member or staff may be supporting a large number of relatives. Please ask us if you are unsure about how much to give.
- Be fair when bargaining for crafts and goods in local markets as this is often the only livelihood of the tradespeople and your wealth is usually considerable by comparison.
- Try to conserve water in areas where it is scarce, turn of taps while bushing teeth and the shower in between your washing hair and lathering up.
- Leave behind any excess packaging before you travel, not all countries have effective recycling facilities and return all used batteries for disposal at home.
- Cut down on the weight of your luggage, most hotels, camps, lodges provide toiletries and some are produced in the local community.
- Don’t give money to beggars, this cannot be seen as a sustainable way of making a living.
- If you want to take gifts with you we can advise on something appropriate for a local schools or community projects.
- When on a self drive trip, remember to stick to designated roads as off roading will damage the fragile flora and fauna.
- And finally picking up a few words of the local language speaks volumes, we are happy to provide literature to help you.
