Review of a Ulaanbaatar day tour to the Genghis Khan Statue, Terelj National Park, Turtle Rock, camels, eagles, and lunch.

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.”

“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.”

See Przewalski’s horses, deer, marmots, and birds at Hustai National Park on a private day trip from Ulaanbaatar, with driver and petrol included.
“My driver and guide, Chinba, was very friendly, gentle, and polite, and his English was fluent, so communication was easy. The park is huge, and wild animals are only visible from a distance—they look tiny. We saw marmots, deers, and the legendary Przewalski’s horses, but the horses stay far from the main road, so we could only spot them through binoculars. I really wish we had set out earlier that day; maybe then we could have seen them up close. Still, the scenery was beautiful, and it’s worth exploring if you have the chance.”
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…”
