Hello,

I will be in UB from the 16th July until the 3rd August, traveling alone and would like to join a group to share the costs . I like adventures , easy going and flexible where I want to go as Mongolia is a first for me. It's about the journey and meeting people along the way that is more important. I am a budget traveler would like to see the Gobi but the steppes are great too.

Regards,
Candace

Do you really mean to say "tour"? Or do you just mean a group to travel with (for less money than a tour)?

Hi Candace,

I'm in the early stages of planning a trip to Mongolia at around the same time as you (maybe slightly earlier) and will pretty much be in the same situation; travelling alone on a low budget, flexible about destinations, and looking for others to share the costs with. As I said, I haven't done much planning yet but would certainly be interested in joining a group if there is space. Let me know if you get anything organised and need someone else to make up the numbers.

hello Candace, Ben
As I posted before in another thread I am travelling as wel as you and Ben with the same ideas and no detailed plan. Most important: get to know the people, landscape, culture by getting arround. I travel from 28. June to 20. august.
If we are already three persons... would be already enough to hire a jeep & guide and go... (?)
Maybe a good idea to send some private messages now,- get to know each other a little bit and see if we can meet in UB to oranganize something!?

Dont forget little ole me, Britta. Remember, I know someone coming in on your same train. 5/6 people is the best number in a van. In Mongolia a jeep rents for the same price as a van.

don't worry, Will.
for two reasons:
I have two month for travelling.... enough to get around with two different teams, or not?
And, as we don't know each other... we aren't really sure to meet....
Do you like to give me an idea of YOU? (private message) To have an idea of your ideas?
:-)))
have a good time in Mongolia,
Britta

To both of you.... oh sorry have not been reading this forum... I have booked already a trip to the GOBI one friend of mine is flying over to join me. A jeep hire and return flight. Good luck to both of you in Mongolia it seems the closer to the dates a group of traveleres will appear. I contacted all the GH 's in LP and put my name out there for available tours and people in the GH to hook up with this is a really good idea as they get last minute bookings where you may be able to join in to bring down the costs.
Mail me at candaceadachinz@yahoo.co.uk if you want further information.
