The note board is an essential part of daily work at Planet Travel and it is often filled with travel plans for tourists. (China Daily)

After the trip, the customers sent a thank-you letter, stating that it was the most memorable trip for them, according to the company.

However not every situation is as desirable.

Liu Yan, a customer-service manager at Planet Travel, once received a group of 16 teachers from an international school, and she didn't calculate the horse riding with the idea that some of the teachers may not be interested. However, the customers later demanded to ride horses for free, because it didn't appear on the price sheet. To appease their misunderstanding, Liu paid the bill out of her own pocket.

As for living conditions, the company chooses the local best facilities, which they send experts to check beforehand. Tourists can enjoy the experience of living in local yurts, which are well furnished with a clean bed, an independent bathroom, and hot water.

Tips for travel

The best season to travel Inner Mongolia is from late June to the end of Sept.

There is a wide temperature gap between day and night and the weather is constantly changing. So, please prepare long-sleeved clothes and rain gear.

Inner Mongolia is 1,500 meters above sea level and has strong sunlight and ultraviolet ray, so it's advisable to bring sunblock or a sun hat.

The climate in Inner Mongolia is dry, so please drink enough water. In addition, it's better for tourists to reserve bottled mineral water because local drinking water has a high alkali content.

There are many ritual taboos in Inner Mongolia, so get relevant information beforehand.

Prepare drugs against cold, fever, diarrhea and skin allergy, in case of emergency.

Gloves and hiking shoes are necessary when riding horses.

It's important to drive or ride horses in designated areas to avoid getting lost in the vast prairie and protect the grasslands.

Bring a local and a flashlight when going out for night activities, because it's difficult to tell directions at night.
