Tusker's Mongolia Nomad Trek explores a region with some of the richest history of all our treks. The local Kazakh eagle hunters and Tuvan herders are descended from ancient Turkic tribes that have occupied this vast, magical land for over 12,000 years. Stretching back in time past Alexander the Great and the rise and fall of the Roman Empire, tribes of old conducted trade on what is now known as the fabled Silk Road. Because of the cold climate, awe-inspiring relics of history are still intact. Trekking through this rich area of Mongolia, you discover fascinating petroglyphs and “Deer Stones” that have hardly changed in thousands of years. As you journey with the local nomadic herders, you step into the pages of history most people only ever read about.

Fundación Sanar is a Colombian NGO which has helped children with cancer for more than 31 years. Healing caps, is an initiative the NGO started 5 years ago, in which they collect plastic caps, sell them and use the money collected to buy medication and pay medical exams for children with cancer who cannot not afford them. The majority of plastic caps have been collected in schools and companies where the initiative also raised recycling awareness and the reuse of waste materials. Acoplásticos contributes with the participation of its affiliate companies and has contributed with logistics for the collection of the bottle caps. The project began in 2013.
