Abstract

The effect of income from tourism, especially adventure travel, on the world economy is increasing as the years go by. Tourists' interests are changing over time, with a growing preference for professional and adventurous travel. This research paper was conducted to determine the development opportunities for Mongolian adventure tour product services and research tour products organized by Mongolian tour operators. A total of 332 tour programs from 28 organizations were researched, revealing that 96.3 percent of the tours in Mongolia are land-based, 3.9 percent are water-based, and 0.3 percent are air-based. The study identified 27 varieties of soft adventure tours, including photo safari, bird watching, ecotourism, trekking, cycling, camel, and horse travel. Additionally, 14 tour operations offer four types of hard adventure tours with varying costs and durations.
