Why Choose a Self-Drive Gobi Desert tour
Most Gobi Desert tours follow a predictable formula — sit back in a van, follow the guide, stick to a fixed schedule. This one flips the concept completely.On this Gobi Desert tour, you’re behind the wheel of a professionally prepared Toyota Land Cruiser or UAZ Patriot from SIXT, navigating your own route through the desert using GPS guidance. Camps, logistics, and support are already handled — with 24/7 backup if you need it — but the journey itself is yours to shape.
It’s a Gobi Desert tour designed for real exploration: independent, flexible, and immersive, without the risks of going completely solo. That balance is exactly why travelers from over 40 countries choose SIXT for their Mongolia adventures every year.Hvis du har nogen spørgsmål Kontakt os her eller send os en e-mail på contact@mongolia.com.co

Gobi Desert tours by Region
We offer a curated range of Gobi Desert tours from 5 to 18 days, designed to explore the different regions of Mongolia’s vast and diverse Gobi. Each route focuses on a distinct part of the desert — from iconic highlights to remote, rarely visited areas. Filter by duration, route intensity, or region to find your ideal Gobi Desert tour.
Southern Gobi – The Iconic Desert Landscape
The Southern Gobi is Mongolia’s most famous and visually striking region. This is where you’ll find the towering dunes of Khongoryn Els, the Flaming Cliffs of Bayanzag, and the dramatic canyon of Yolyn Am.
It’s the classic Gobi Desert tour experience — vast sand dunes, red rock formations, and nomadic camel herders. Perfect for first-time visitors who want to see the most legendary landscapes of the Gobi.
Eastern Gobi – Open Steppe & Hidden Monasteries
The Eastern Gobi is less visited but equally fascinating. Instead of high dunes, you’ll discover wide steppe landscapes, rocky outcrops, and historic monasteries hidden in remote desert plains.
This region offers a quieter, more cultural perspective of the Gobi — ideal for travelers looking to explore beyond the typical routes and experience a different side of Mongolia’s desert.
Central Gobi – Remote Plains & Transitional Landscapes
The Central Gobi forms the heart of the desert, where semi-arid steppe transitions into true desert. Expect wide open horizons, dry valleys, and isolated nomadic camps.
It’s a region defined by space and silence — perfect for those seeking a deeper, more contemplative Gobi Desert tour far from crowds.
Western Gobi – Rugged Mountains & Extreme Remoteness
The Western Gobi is the most remote and least explored part of the desert. Here, desert meets mountain — with rugged ranges, gravel plains, and some of the harshest, most untouched terrain in Mongolia.
This is a true expedition-style Gobi Desert tour, ideal for experienced travelers who want to push beyond the usual routes and discover the raw edge of the Gobi.

Gobi Desert Travel — What to Expect
A Gobi Desert tour is unlike travel anywhere else. Roads fade into tracks, horizons stretch endlessly, and the landscape constantly shifts between dunes, cliffs, and vast open plains. You might share tea with a nomadic camel herder in a ger, wake up to absolute silence in the desert, and navigate remote terrain that ordinary vehicles simply can’t reach. It’s raw, unpredictable, and deeply unforgettable.
SIXT Mongolia is here to make that experience accessible — giving you everything you need to explore the Gobi Desert with confidence, while preserving the true spirit of adventure.
