nice place to visit and very professional tour guide - it was great experience. The tour company Discover Mongolia is good ,because our hotel wasnt in Ulaanbaatar, but in remote country side which was 30 min away from the Genghis khan statue complex cause we stayed one night in ger before the tour. They picked us up at the resort with a spacious van . They tour guide ,Sara, spoke very good Chinese and she explained every detail of the itinerary professionally. The Genghis Khan statue is magnificent , the Normadic family we visited was an authentic one. The teenage girl was still nursing her crying baby brother when we visited. We could see that their ger was not for exhibition purpose but they really live in it. Tertlj national park was great also. The mongolian lunch served was good.

Good time exploring Mongolian flat lands - My sister and I had a wonderful day trip with Shinee and driver to the Trelj national park. We drove out of UB in a nice air conditioned suv. We were exposed to Mongolian history, lore and politics. The Chinggis Khaan Statue was amazing up close. The landscape beautiful and vast. Our tour guide was knowledgeable and sweet. Lunch was amazing at a ger( yurt) camp. We road horses and saw a meditation center. Although it rained part of the day, we were still able to enjoy the outdoors away from UB for the day. I would recommend this tour.

A great first trip to Mongolia - My friend and I did the 8 day Taste of Mongolia tour. It was well organized and we really enjoyed all our destinations and our guide and driver. It was a comfortable tour with a good vehicle, meals and places to stay. If anyone is interested in visiting Mongolia I would recommend.

Our amazing and memorable Mongolian experience - Our 16 day Mongolian trip in July this year with Discover Mongolia was for Sue and I very special and memorable. It was so well organized and all the many amazing places we visited and things we did every day were exactly as had been itemized in the trip Itinerary. We were a group of 9. We travelled in 3 fairly new Lexus 4x4 vehicles. Our route, with a few diversions, was from the Gobi Desert in the south to Lake Khovsgol in the very north. Our 3 Mongolian drivers were great fun and really good drivers especially off road… they seemed to navigate by instinct … we never ever got lost…..!! And our Mongolian guide Oyuna was just the best. She spoke perfect English as and had a great understanding and knowledge of Mongolia. She was also good fun and if any of us had a problem she was always there for us. We had many memorable experiences… the Nadam festival, riding Mongolian horses and camels, the vast landscape and how it gradually changed as we drove north, climbing a 300 metre sand dune, the herds of goats sheep and yak, the Our 16 day Mongolian trip in July this year with Discover Mongolia was for Sue and I very special and memorable.

We felt that going with a Mongolian travel company and a Mongolian guide made the trip even better. We would highly recommend that as the best way to get a true insight into the country and its people…Overall for Sue and I it was a brilliant experience….. thank you so much….one day we will return…..😊😊😊 Roland and Sue

So calm and relaxing - Very pleasant drive from downtown to the park. Our guide Tugu explained about the area and lives of Mongolians very well. Very relaxed tour without any rush. The park was pristine and beautiful Even though there were bunch of group tours everywhere. Our driver Moha was also super friendly and accommodating through out the tour. It was a wonderful experience of Mongolia and definitely will come back to explore more!! Thank you for such a relaxing and cool experience!

Bucket List Mongolia 🇲🇳 - Our Mongolia tour was an amazing experience. From pickup to drop off our skillful driver Zula fights through the busy traffic of the city and get to our location safely and on time. Our trip has also been elevated by the wealth of experience shared by our tour guide Khishig. She not only able to answer all our questions related to Mongolia, but also full of energy... from climbing up turtle rock to hiking mountains, she ensures we are always hydrated and get the best view. She also stepped out her way to work with tourist camps to adjust food menu to our liking and timing our sightseeing to have the best photo opportunities and least amount of ppls. My brother wanted to take a pic with some traditional mongolian attires and we didn't have enough time to do so at Chinggis Khan statue, so Khishig arranged an opportunity to do so at a tourist camp instead. Overall, mongolia was beautiful, but it was made unforgettable thanks to Khishig and Zula.

Great day out! - We had an action-packed day, full of beautiful views, friendly people and cultural improvement :). Oyuna, our guide, and Damba, our driver, were very friendly & knowledgeable people & we were lucky to spend the day with them. I would recommend this day out to anyone staying in Ulaanbaatar.
