MONGOLIA

The Real Deal

Executive summary by darmansjah

BASED on the 1920s expeditions of Roy Chapman Andrews-American Museum of Natural History director and the alleged inspiration for Indiana Jones-this journey traces the Beijing-Kalgan-Urga trail, used for centuries by camel caravans between China and Mongolia. In Gobi, your own caravan passes dunes and the Flaming Cliffs, where Andrews famously discovered the first fossilized dinosaur eggs the modern world had ever seen. Nomadic Expeditions: “Across Mongolian Plains,’ 16 days; $8,960
