Over two days, you can photograph fast action as eagles are released from mountain ridges, traditional horseback games, and strong portrait moments in natural light.</p> <p data-end="1060" data-start="770">Beyond the festival, the tour includes private shooting sessions with eagle hunters in Sagsai and around Tolbo Lake. These sessions give you more control over light, background, and composition — ideal for portraits, horseback scenes, and storytelling images without the pressure of crowds. This is a small group photography tour designed around field conditions. We plan for early morning and late afternoon shooting, work with natural light, and allow enough time in each location to build a strong and varied portfolio.</p> ', 'excerpt' => '<table bgcolor="#F5F5F5" border="0" bordercolor="#111111" cellpadding="6" cellspacing="0" id="AutoNumber1" style="font-family: Tahoma; border-collapse: collapse;" width="100%"> <tbody> <tr> <td style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-size: 11px;" valign="top" width="50%"><b>Services included in the cost:</b><br /> <br /> Accommodation: Hotel***,* ger camp, tented camp <br /> Guiding and interpreting service <br /> Full board meals <br /> Domestic flights <br /> Transport: vehicle 4x4 or minivan<br /> Entrance fees to protected areas and national parks<br /> Museums and cultural performance<br /> Horses Camping equipments</td> <td style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-size: 11px;" valign="top" width="50%"><b>Services not included in the cost:</b><br /> <br /> International airfare <br /> Personal equipments <br /> Optional activity cost <br /> Excess baggage charges<br /> Single room supplement <br /> Alcoholic drinks <br /> Sleeping bag <br /> Travel Insurance</td> </tr> </tbody> </table> ', 'file1' => 'eagle-festival-photo-tour-mongolia-ayan-travel.jpg', 'file2' => 'Mongolia-golden-eagle-festival-photography.jpg', 'alt_for_file1' => 'eagle-festival-photo-tour-mongolia-ayan-travel', 'alt_for_file2' => 'Mongolia-golden-eagle-festival-photography', 'days' => '7', 'price' => '2490', 'type' => 'tour', 'url' => array( [maximum depth reached] ) ), 'CustomFields' => array() ), (int) 2 => array( 'Node' => array( 'title' => 'Golden Gobi and Kharkhorin Tour Mongolia-10 days', 'slug' => 'golden-gobi-and-kharkhorin-tour', 'body' => '<p data-end="352" data-start="192">This journey focuses on Mongolia’s most iconic Gobi landscapes and the historic capital of Kharkhorin, offering a shorter and well-balanced travel experience.

These sessions give you more control over light, background, and composition — ideal for portraits, horseback scenes, and storytelling images without the pressure of crowds.

Mongolian Nature and Landscape
Mongolia is a country of extraordinary natural beauty, where vast steppes, deserts, forests, lakes, and mountains create one of the world's last great wilderness landscapes. Its diverse ecosystems support remarkable wildlife, unique plant communities, and a traditional nomadic way of life that has remained closely connected to nature for centuries.
From the snow-covered Altai Mountains and northern taiga forests to the vast grasslands and the Gobi Desert, Mongolia offers some of Asia's most intact natural environments and one of the world's richest combinations of wilderness, biodiversity, and living cultural landscapes.

Mongolian Foods and Drinks
Mongolian cuisine is shaped by the country’s nomadic heritage, harsh climate, and deep traditions of hospitality. Meat, dairy products, and seasonal ingredients form the foundation of many traditional dishes, while unique foods such as buuz, khorkhog, airag, and suutei tsai remain an important part of everyday life and cultural celebrations.
For visitors, experiencing Mongolian food is not only about taste but also about understanding the customs, generosity, and lifestyle of the people who have lived on the steppe for centuries.
