Experience Magical Taiga: Meet The Mystical Tsaatan Reindeer Herders in Northern Mongolia
Welcome to Beyond Expeditions, where extraordinary adventures await. Today, we invite you on a captivating journey to experience the enchanting wonders of Northern Mongolia and immerse yourself in the rich culture of the mystical Tsaatan Reindeer Herders.
Imagine a world untouched by time, where lush green forests stretch as far as the eye can see, and a sense of tranquility fills the air. This is the Taiga, a pristine wilderness that holds the secrets of centuries-old traditions and the enduring bond between humans and reindeer.
Our "Experience Magical Taiga" tour takes you deep into this hidden realm, offering you an opportunity to connect with the Tsaatan, a nomadic tribe whose way of life revolves around these magnificent creatures. As you venture into their territory, you'll witness the incredible symbiotic relationship between the Tsaatan and their reindeer, built on mutual respect and dependence.
The journey begins with a warm welcome from the Tsaatan community, where you'll be embraced as an honored guest. You'll have the chance to engage with the reindeer herders, listen to their captivating stories, and learn about their ancient customs and shamanic traditions that have been passed down through generations.
Under the guidance of our experienced Mongolian guides, you'll explore the breathtaking landscapes of the Taiga, trekking through lush forests, crossing crystal-clear rivers, and climbing majestic hills. The untouched beauty of this region will leave you in awe, as you witness nature's masterpiece unfolding before your eyes.
Every day brings new adventures and unforgettable moments. Picture yourself riding on the back of a reindeer, guided by the Tsaatan herders, as they lead you deeper into their realm. Feel the gentle sway of the reindeer's movements, connecting you to the rhythm of nature and evoking a sense of harmony within.
As the sun sets, the campfire crackles, and the aroma of traditional Mongolian cuisine fills the air. Gather around wit
Have you ever wondered just like me how women in different parts of the world live? To find out this answer, I travelled to Mongolia to live with a nomadic family for a week and I met Unuruu.
A lady with such a big and warm personality and a hearty laugh. She taught me so many different kinds of things that I’ve never done before during my stay.
If you’re curious about how she lives, watch our full documentary on YouTube here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IQGR5W3ZGwA&t=1994s! 🎞️🔗
💥 Upcoming full documentary alert! 🎞️
When was the last time someone really inspired you? I went to Mongolia with an open mind to experience living the life of a Mongolian Nomadic woman for a week and not only did I come back inspired, I picked up new skills and knowledge!
Seeing how well Unuruu balances her life with all the different things she has to do, and living life so purposefully and genuinely contented, she inspired me to better myself. Stay tuned for the full documentary soon!

What’s waiting for me on the other side of the Ger door in Mongolia? 🇲🇳
Experiencing the life of a full time nomad in Mongolia is easily one of the most amazing experiences that REALLY opened up my eyes! 👀
I was treated with INCREDIBLE Mongolian hospitality to the point where you’ll need to take the INITIATIVE to offer help and that’s when you get the FULL experience! ✨
Life has SO MUCH to offer if you’re just brave enough to take that step away from the hustle and bustle of city life and learn about life through the PERSPECTIVES OF OTHERS living so differently from us!

We got to witness firsthand the DAY OF MOVING from the winter camp to the spring camp with one of the nomadic families living in Lun, Mongolia! 🇲🇳
It’s fascinating that in just a few hours, they can fit everything they need in just a truck and a car!
They continuously migrate to find pastures and water because of how the nomadic lifestyle is hugely dependent on the environment to thrive.
They can migrate up to 4-6 times a year! Some nomads tend to stay in the ger throughout all seasons and some nomads stay in the house for some seasons and the ger in other seasons!
Look forward to our upcoming short film to learn more about this Nomadic move during the seasons! ✨

Are you living up to your full potential?
The incredible journey of Beyond Limits 4.0 proves that when you push yourself to the edge, you can achieve amazing things.
We are thrilled to share the incredible story of Beyond Limits 4.0, where 19 strangers came together in Mongolia to conquer an arduous 50km trek on ice, all while raising $100,000 for the Singapore Cancer Society.
The journey was CRAZY, but these individuals learned to not just survive, but THRIVE under even the craziest of circumstances, pushing themselves beyond what they thought was possible. They broke through their greatest fears and inner demons to emerge stronger and braver than ever before.
This video will leave you inspired and awed by what our participants experienced.
And meanwhile, ask yourself; What's holding YOU back from your own greatness?

Last week, we challenged beach-goers to a tyre-ing showdown at East Coast Park. 🙌🏼
Passers-by both young and old took a shot at pulling a 7-kg tyre across 50m of sand, showing that age imposes no limits here. We even had a participant join in despite having his arm in a sling; madly inspiring! 💪🏽❤️🔥

Anne Ang | Breast Cancer Survivor
What encouragement do our cancer warriors who’ve conquered Beyond Limits 4 want to share with other survivors battling cancer?
Anne found the start of the expedition really tough for her and wanted to give up on the first day. Yet, she conquered it. She told herself, just like cancer, the start is difficult. If you can overcome the initial part and have a goal and objective, you can finish it victoriously.
“Set a goal for yourself to work towards the path of healing.”
Watch the video and hear her story.
