Know before you go

• A nomadic lifestyle may seem like heaven to some, but it is a challenging way to live. Nomads are people who migrate from one place to another. You can come and experience the last generation of nomad life, their work, how they feed their animals, how to make yoghurt, and how to get milk from their goats. It may be hard to live in a tent without WiFi, but it is a nice way to experience nature differently.

• Note: This tour is not appropriate for tourists who prefer 5-star hotels; it is enjoyable for those who want to discover a new culture and lifestyle.
