Meet the Family
A three-generation family from Dalanzadgad, running small personalised trips in the Gobi Desert.
A local family from Dalanzadgad
Explore Gobi is a three-generation family-run team based in Dalanzadgad, in the heart of the Gobi Desert.
Eri and Tsendee started welcoming travellers by opening their home and building ger guesthouses. What began as a small family effort has grown into a trusted way for travellers to experience the Gobi in a personal and flexible way.
We are a local family from Dalanzadgad, not a tour company.
Our team handles bookings and communication before arrival. We help guests choose the right tour, adjust dates and transport, and make sure everything is organised smoothly before the trip begins.
On the ground, Hasha leads most tours with his family. He is an experienced driver who knows the Gobi routes well and focuses on making each journey safe, flexible, and comfortable.
Since we work as a family, every trip is personal. You are not passed between departments or guides — you deal directly with the people who organise and run your journey.

How we run things
We keep groups small. Most of our tours are just you and your travel companions — no big buses or fixed schedules.
We build each trip around your dates, pace, and interests. If plans change along the way, we adapt.
During busy periods, we may match solo travellers with similar dates. This helps share the vehicle cost and keeps the experience social while still personal.
You book directly with us. No agencies, no middlemen, and no hidden costs.
