      TravelerWritten October 2022

      I thought the Naadaam Festival was held the same date every year - July 11 - 13.

    • Discover AltaiOperatorWritten October 2022

      Tour has included attending one day of the Naadam Festival instead of two days. The reason for the schedules is the domestic flight. It is each Monday and Thursday.

    • Discover AltaiOperatorWritten October 2022

      So, it would be 2100 USD per person. It is all included package tour
