Reins of the Traveler’s Tundra Mammoth

The Traveler’s Tundra Mammoth is the first-ever mount in WoW to both have vendors and offer taxi functionality. It was introduced in the Wrath of the Lich King expansion and remains incredibly useful to this day.
Obtaining the Mount
You can purchase this mount from a vendor in Old Dalaran named Mei Francis.

Alliance and Horde players can quickly navigate to Old Dalaran by using their respective portals in Stormwind and Orgrimmar.

Cost
The Traveler’s Tundra Mammoth’s cost depends on your reputation with the Kirin Tor faction.
Reputation Level | Cost (in gold) |
Neutral | 20,000 |
Friendly | 19,000 |
Honored | 18,000 |
Revered | 17,000 |
Exalted | 16,000 |
If you can’t afford the mount, it’ll probably be way faster to farm the missing gold rather than farm reputation with the Kirin Tor.
Vendors
The Traveler’s Tundra Mammoth mount comes with two vendors:
- Hakmud of Argus, a Draenei who sells food and water
- Gnimo, a Mechagnome who offers reagents and repair services.

Dismissing the Vendors
If you want one or two friends to ride your mount, you must first dismiss one or both vendors (respectively).
To kick a vendor off the mount, search for the birds-eye image of the mammoth in the top-right corner of your screen.

Then, right click one of the yellow circles and click the “Eject Passenger” button.

Your friend(s) will then be able to ride on your mount!
Can You Change the Mount’s Vendors?
Unfortunately, you cannot replace either of the vendors with a new one (for Transmogrification, mail, etc.).
If you’d like to gain access to a Transmogrification NPC or an auctioneer NPC, you must buy and use the following mounts (respectively):
- Grand Expedition Yak
- Mighty Caravan Brutosaur.
