Review of a private Ulaanbaatar day trip to Chinggis Khan Statue, Aryabal Temple, and Terelj National Park with lunch and hotel pickup.

“That was a comfortable ride around picturesque landscapes of the Terelj Park. We made several stops in the most interesting places, views were truly amazing. I really recommend this tour, especially if your stay in Ulanbataar is short - the tour takes 4-5 hours, but you will see a lot of great sights.”

Ride a Bactrian camel across Mongolia’s Mini Gobi, meet a nomadic family, eat lunch in a ger, and take the long scenic road from Ulaanbaatar.

“My husband and I recently travelled to Mongolia. We arrived a couple of days before our organized tour in part to enjoy the Semi-Gobi tour. We waited outside our hotel for over 1.5 hours and our pickup never arrived. We texted - no answer. We called and asked the hotel staff to call on our behalf and we were told that the phone number provided on the Viator website was not viable. This was a HUGE disappointment. We are STILL waiting for our refund.”

Review of Hustai National Park from Ulaanbaatar, with wild horses, nomadic culture, practical timing advice, lunch, transport, and honest drawbacks.

“This was a real Mongolian experience. It almost got cancelled, because of a lack of bookings for that day, but Bachi still took me to Hustai NP, as I really wanted to see the wild horses and couldn’t reschedule. We left before the sunrise, to catch a glimpse of the horses before the temperature started raising and they would escape the heat in the woods. I got lucky and spotted a group of adult horses and a foal. On the way back, around 10,30 am, it seemed like the whole Mongolia was on the road. People deserted Ulaanbataar to attend the local Nadaam festivities. It was trully a sight to…”

Ride camels across Elsen Tasarkhai, meet Mongolian nomads, and search for wild horses at Khustai on a long private day trip.

“We drove for 10 hours for a 20 minute camel ride. It was it. Literally. We didn't see the sand dune or the Hustai park because of the torrential rain and the lack if time. Our car was old, with a broken windscreen wipes and seats and no safety features at all. It's not worth it for this type of money. On a brighter side, the scenery was fantastic.”
