Mongolia , the ' Land of Eternal Blue Sky', offers an extraordinary ancient culture set in a timeless land. Witness pristine landscapes, spot remarkable wildlife, and learn about nomadic customs and lifestyle. See Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia’s capital, and experience the awe-inspiring Gobi Desert, with its spectacular scenery of red rock mountains, narrow canyons, and shifting sand dunes. Sleep in comfortable ger (yurt) camps, under the breathtaking night sky. A highlight of this trip will be one of nature’s most spectacular pieces of theater, a total solar eclipse, in Western Mongolia, close to Mongolian border with China. Join the Harvard Museum of Natural History, alumni of MIT, USC, Vassar, Dartmouth, and Columbia as we share this terrestrial and celestial experience.
