"This was my third trip with One in the Orange Jacket and Vyshakh, and each one has been unforgettable in its own way. Every day brought breathtaking views, warm local stays, and seamless planning. We felt completely taken care of. But the best part? The people. We started as strangers and ended as a close-knit group, something that happens naturally on a Vyshakh-led trip. Grateful for yet another amazing journey."

"I'm an adventure guide from Cape Town, South Africa, travelling solo for the first time. I know adventure, having taken in excess of 5,000 guests personally on mountain hikes and adventure tours. This one was the best. The hospitality, connection, empathy and love I felt from this group of strangers made this trip one I'll cherish for the rest of my life. They've managed to curate an off-the-beaten-track adventure experience that anyone can participate in."

"Vyshakh was not only knowledgeable about every destination but also ensured that every member of our group felt comfortable and included. By the end of our journey, those who were once strangers on Day 1 had transformed into friends. Team OJ stands out for their commitment to delivering not just adventures, but lifelong memories."

Do you have a cancellation policy?

+
If Plans Change, We've Got You We totally get it, life happens, and sometimes your plans have to take a rain check. That's why we've kept our cancellation policy simple, transparent, and as kind as possible.

• 45+ days before the trip: 10% cancellation charge
• 30–44 days before the trip: 25% cancellation charge
• 15–29 days before the trip: 50% cancellation charge
• Within 14 days of the trip: 100% cancellation charge

These are calculated on the total trip amount, not just the token amount.

Now, if you can find someone to take your spot, we'll happily refund your full amount. No questions asked. Because at the end of the day, we'd rather have someone travel than hold back your money.

To keep your spot confirmed, please clear the remaining balance by the due date, it helps us lock in stays, permits, and experiences for the group. If payments are delayed beyond that, we'll have to treat it as a cancellation (same policy applies).

What should you bring?

+
🧥 Layers (Critical) Gobi days hit 30°C; nights drop to 5–10°C. Pack a warm fleece + windproof jacket even in summer. Light long-sleeves & t-shirts (4–5). One outfit you don't mind getting dusty.

👟 Footwear Sturdy closed-toe walking shoes for camel riding + Yolyn Am hike · Flip-flops for ger camps · One dry pair for evenings.

🧴 Sun + Skin 50 SPF sunscreen (sun at 1,000m is brutal) · Sunglasses with UV protection · Lip balm with SPF · Moisturizer (desert is dry) · Wet wipes.

🔋 Electronics Power bank (charging at ger camps is limited) · Universal travel adapter (Mongolia uses Type C & E) · Headlamp for camp nights.

🎒 Essentials Day backpack · Reusable water bottle · Quick-dry towel · Small first-aid kit · Passport + visa docs we send you.

I'm coming solo. Is that a problem?

+
Most people come alone for my trips. About 25% of the people bring a friend or partner. Honestly it really doesn't matter. I have seen on all the batches I have led. Most people really gel with everyone, even the ones who thought wouldn't gel up, surprise themselves always with the way they got comfortable with everyone.

What are trips like with OJ?

+
Usually, most batch sizes are between 12-20 people who are aged between 16-38. Most people come alone or with a friend. The trip would feel like you are travelling more with college friends than strangers. We tend to do more outdoorsy things than regular trips . For example : If we find a very pretty waterfall/ a beautiful sunset / Rainbow on the way. We would stop the vehicle right away to catch the beauty of it. We usually sleep very late on these trips as we play a lot of group games and most people feel they will miss the precious time with the group members and decides to stay awake.

Do I need a Mongolia visa?

+
Mongolia offers 30-day visa-on-arrival for Indian passport holders (and we handle the letter of invitation + hotel bookings you need for it). The visa fee is included in your trip cost. You land at UBN, show the docs we give you, pay nothing extra.

How tough is the trip physically?

+
Easy to moderate. Longest single hike is about 5 km at Yolyn Am (2 hours). Camel ride is 1 hour. Most days are drive + light walking. No altitude issues, the Gobi sits around 1,000m. If you can walk 5 km on flat ground, you're fine.

What's the ger-camp experience like?

+
Gers are traditional Mongolian round felt tents, warm in the day, can get cool at night (a wood stove keeps things cosy). Tourist ger camps have shared bathrooms and meals at a central dining ger. The one nomadic-family night is more rustic: a guest ger next to their family ger, food with them, basic facilities. That night is many people's favourite.
