Trip in Ulaanbaatar - My trip to Ulaanbaatar was absolutely fantastic! The city’s vibrant mix of history and culture was fascinating, but the real highlight was our amazing tour guide. They were incredibly knowledgeable about Mongolian history, local traditions, and the city’s key landmarks. What impressed me the most was their ability to speak so many languages fluently, making everyone feel comfortable and engaged throughout the tour. From the Gandan Monastery to the rich stories of the Great Khans, the guide made everything come to life with their insights.It was an unforgettable experience, and I highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Ulaanbaatar!

Ulaanbaatar - Our guide Tooey brought us on a fantastic tour of Ulaanbaatar! He taught us so much about the city including food and culture. We only had 2 days in Ulaanbaatar but through this tour we were able to make the most of our time and see many sites. This tour made our trip to Ulaanbaatar extra special and was the favorite part of our trip to Mongolia. He helped us capture great pictures and memories of our time in Ulaanbaatar! Shout out to our driver as well!!

Lovely city tour that covers most of the attractions - I had a great tour, although there was an issue with my booking as I booked at the last minute. However, the agency was very professional and solved it quickly and sent me someone. We covered most of the city's famous attractions; the car is nice and clean and the driver is kind and welcoming. I recommend this tour if you want to save your time to explore the area by yourself.

Perfect Way to Discover Ulaanbaatar - Our City Tour was absolutely perfect! Our guide, CJ was incredibly friendly and shared fascinating stories about the city’s history and culture. Highlights included the serene Gandan Monastery, the iconic Chinggis Square, and the insightful National Museum of Mongolia. We also made a buch of other stops, but it would take a whole blog for me to describe the experience. The tour was very smooth and well-organized, with comfortable transport and a delicious traditional lunch. We had just the right amount of time at each stop to soak in the atmosphere. I highly recommend this tour for anyone wanting to experience the best of Ulaanbaatar!

Worth it!! - This tour was an amazing way to see what Mongolia had to offer! Our guide, CJ, was an excellent guide through it all. He spoke English exceptionally and had a friendly, respectful attitude. He was super considerate of our times and our interests in the tour :)) Learned so much of the country and the culture behind it! Highly recommended 10/10 🙏

Just GREAT! - My tour guide Yogi was excellent. His English is a step above other tour non-native English speaking guides I've worked with. He was friendly, enthusiastic, and willing to adjust the tour to my personal interests. The itinerary was efficient, we hit on all the major spots I wanted to see. The stop at the monastery was informative for someone who knows very little about Buddhism (and Mongolia's history with it). The black market was really interesting and we spent the perfect amount of time exploring it. Highlight locations were the city lookout point and the museum. (Most skippable was the winter palace. Not entirely uninteresting, but not the most engaging.) The real highlight though was the opportunity to have in depth conversations in English with someone born and raised in Mongolia about every topic from politics to history to what life is like for the average Mongolian. Can't recommend Yogi enough! All around fantastic experience, perfect comprehensive introduction to this fascinating country!

Our guide was a great English speaker, articulate and knowledgeable and able to share many insights he had into his homeland, as he himself had travelled. Enerel, our guide. was very willing to adapt to our needs and altered lunchtime as part of that. This trip set us up for our own exploration of the city and is really worthwhile.</p>
