"I am excited to be coordinating this absolutely unique journey through one of the most beautiful countries in Asia. We shall explore the varied countryside around the hills of Arkhangai, the sands and gorges of the Gobi desert, and the historic ruins of Karakorum. It promises to be the trip of a lifetime."

"Fascinating cultural sites, beautiful scenery, superb riding conditions - and a wonderful team of guide, driver/cook, horse-master. The images of the Orkhon Valley will stay with me, as will memories of the families who welcomed us. I felt like a person not a package, and that I was being welcomed to Mongolia and invited to appreciate it people, history & beauty."

"I shall be eternally grateful to Panoramic Journeys for giving me two wonderful trips to Mongolia so far. Everything was perfectly organised and my highlights were the Eagle Festival; Agii, the best of all guides; holding an eagle; meeting the Shamans; sleeping in Gers;  the stars; and most of all the people".

"A fantastic holiday with beautiful and varied scenery in totally unspoilt landscapes. Transport was very comfortable, the drivers were absolutely wonderful, their skills were brilliant and they had lovely personalities. Our lovely picnics in such remote areas was another highlight, they were great."

"Breathtaking! We want to go back. Very well organised - singing dunes, so many riding at the refugio, the camel riding. The guest gers were all lovely and the food was fresh & plentiful. We loved the way Esee produced unexpected meals eg. proper coffee at the Refugio and a jar of caviar appeared on the table."

"It has to be one of those very rare occurences in life when reality by far surpasses all expectations! What comes across so evidently through your careful planning is not only your great knowledge of Mongolia, but especially the love and respect you all have for this beautiful country, and this is such an important ethical issue"

"This was by far the best trip I have ever done! I had an absolute blast, and it was totally perfect for me. Mongolia is an amazing place. Two days at the refugio was definitely a highlight. I am so glad to have found Panoramic Journeys, you truly have a unique service"

"Very well run tour. This is a real praise as we are sometimes quite critical but we honestly could not find any earth shattering faults. Personal highlights must be the pony race at the festival, marmot BBQ and in fact almost everything!"

"Nothing could have been more ideal than to have John as leader and expert explicator of the expedition. His enthusiam, energy, deep knowledge, curiosity and engaging personality were instrumental in giving the journey that special touch"

"Fantastic, incredible and privileged experience to have such an intimate insight into Mongolian life and to meet so many people, not just our planned visit but the impromptu stops at gers. We loved Nyama and Osohoo’s attentiveness & their real desire to make each day special."

"We had a simply fantastic time in China and Mongolia and our holiday exceeded all expectations. We will be back. Esee was a star - speaks such good English and so attentive on an individual basis - always thinking 'how can I make this better?'"

"The first morning as we rode out , the air was filled with the smell of larch and the sweet voices of the Mongolian guides sang to the beauty of their country. You put together a great and well-organised trip for us."

"A lovely, friendly, helpful team who made my dream come true."

"The whole trip was truly memorable - from dog sledding across the ice to the cosy warmth of our ger. Everyone was so hospitable and the countryside was breathtaking. The blue winter skies were crisp and flawless - as was the great organisation of the close-knit team at Panoramic Journeys."

"We enjoyed meeting Mongolian people & the camel trek over the Khongoryn Els was one of many highlights."

"Incredibly busy, demanding, and lots of fun, amazing scenery – everywhere. We appreciated the flexibility – so we could be part of choosing camping and getting us into the Chinggis statue before it was opened. Good planning & organization."

"It is difficult to pick out just one aspect. The mind-blowing wilderness of the horse trek in Mongolia combined with the cultural time spent in Beijing was just fantastic."

"The whole trip was incredible, lived up to all our expectations and was probably the best holiday/adventure of our lives. We had a total ball and the other people in our group were brilliant."

"We loved our time in the Gobi - more vast and beautiful that we had imagined, and so varied as well. From stretches of rocky ground dotted with spring flowers to the incredible Flaming Cliffs; from those beautiful sand dunes to icy Eagle Gorge."

"Your organization, your staff, the country, the people just great! Everyone from the UK office to the horseman in Mongolia, could not have done more for us. - Thank you all!"

"A wonderful, wonderful experience! Not at all prepared for the vastness of the country. The Naadam Festival will remain forever in our memories."

"A wonderful trip, I'm thrilled to have done it. I've completely fallen for Mongolia, the Mongolian people and most of all the Kazakhs. My highlight was 85 mounted Eagle hunters galloping by, eagles held high. Something exciting was arranged for every day"

"An incredible journey. The scenery was far more magnificent than I ever expected, and we truly enjoyed every contact with native Mongolians. Viewing the Naadam festival in the small town of Tariat was the perfect choice, allowing us to communicate in several ways with local residents. Our stay at Khovsgol was a perfect way to finish our itinerary of the countryside. The beautiful lake, cloud-accented sky, mirror-like lagoon, and millions of wild flowers added a level of beauty to our stay that was most overwhelming."

"We would like to thank you for the fabulous holiday that we spent in Mongolia & China. You listened to our requests & the 'something special' for Shelley's birthday that Olly and Osohoo implemented was superb! Mongolia and its people grabbed us in the nicest possible way and we have lots of happy memories."

"Brilliant! We had a fantastic trip. The strongest impressions were the amazing untouched vast landscape and the spirit of the people. So impressed with all the guides and the way everything was organised. The little touches were fantastic and I wouldn't hesitate in recommending you guys to anyone."

"Brilliantly organized top trip! Esee was a brilliant guide - nothing much trouble, very entertaining and really introduced the spirit of Mongolia wherever we went with stories and singing not to mention his wrestling. Nyama was magnificent - care of his vehicle, sense of direction and making every effort to make our travel unforgettable.''

"A truly breath-taking and invigorating experience; The company's care and attention to detail was impressive; the pace of the holiday carefully judged; and the guide and driver particularly attentive, patient, and, above all, fun. The stay in the refugio alongside the nomad family, where we were treated with great warmth and openness, was a personal highlight"

"The trip was amazing and exceeded our expectations. We have come back with some amazing memories, made our friends & family green with envy. We rarely go back to a place we have been before, but Mongolia we might have to make an exception for."

"I think Amy and I have fallen in love with Mongolia as much as you have. Thank you so much for giving us such an amazing route through Mongolia. We are already planning when we can return."

"It was a great trip! I thought the team was great and the itinerary worked really well. The most striking thing about Mongolia was the vast open empty space. We had expected that but until you can actually see it, it is hard to picture."

"To be on horse back in the mountains with a Golden Eagle on my arm was an awesome experience that I will never forget. Even if no quarry is caught, the thrill of hunting with Kazakhs and their birds, in the most incredible landscapes, is truly thrilling."

"We absolutely loved Mongolia, especially the lovely friendly people. It was everything we imagined it would be and more."

"Delightful people, empty horizons, cheerful atmosphere of Naadams. We all loved Mongolia and its people."

"Superb planning and execution. Readiness to adapt plans to suit external and internal changes. Faultless attention to detail and perfect balance of involvement/disengagement. Perfect introduction to a wonderful country, still unspoilt. In UK and Mongolia, unfailingly helpful and tolerant."

"Wonderful range of experiences giving insight into a beautiful country - sight seeing, festival, visits, riding - all good. Excellent team. Loved the eco-friendly approach. Drivers excellent."

"The whole experience more than came up to expectations. Being in a small group with such exceptional leaders was as special as dealing with Panoramic Journeys from the start. Thank you!"

"The people are wonderfully welcoming, the countryside out of this world and the lifestyle such a welcome contrast. I had the most incredible, awesome and fantastic trip - a complete success and the best experience of my life. I just can't wait to get back there."

"Unforgettable - the Mongolians have a whole different worldview which makes the country a very interesting destination. I would certainly book again with Panoramic. Thanks for making it happen!"

"What a wonderful holiday you gave us! It exceeded all expectations…just perfect - so easy, relaxed, harmonious and fun. You looked after us so well, and your thoughtfulness and flexibility added so much to the enjoyment. So sad to say goodbye. I am still mentally out in the steppes and deserts."
