“A trip to Mongolia is not completed until you ride a horse through the Mongolian steppe. And this tour will make this come true! Gorkhi Terelj National Park is a must-see while in Ulaanbaatar, and is a great day trip from the capital. Our guide Tuvshin had organized a visit to a local nomadic family, where we enjoyed our lunch composed of traditional dumpling soup, sun-dried yogurt, homemade butter, and milk tea. We then mounted our horses and headed with Tuvshin and a local nomadic guide inside the park. The whole afternoon was pure magic, as we galloped through the open steppes. We highly recommend Tuvshin as a guide -…”

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 46 reviews · 2 days · from $299

Spend two days in Terelj National Park with horse riding, ger living, nomadic culture, Turtle Rock, Aryabala Temple, and Chinggis Khan’s statue.

“My tour with Batmaa, the tour guide, and Battogtokh, the driver, was most enjoyable. The planned activities were informative, and the tour guide was excellent. As I was the only guest, the tour guide adapted the schedule to make sure that I got the most out of the trip. I asked about a whole day's horse ride, and Batmaa booked this for the following day, and it was a wonderful experience. Also, she helped me to book a taxi ride to the airport at a very good price. Thank you so much, Batmaa and Battogtokh, for a memorable trip.”
