Review of a 3-day Central Mongolia tour with camel and horse rides, Kharkhorin, Erdene Zuu, nomad life, and practical comfort tips.

“It was amazing trip. My guide was Angarag and it was two of us on the tour. Angarag was really friendly and nice. He really took care of us during the tour. If you have him as a guide buy him some timtam cause he like it a lot 😀 We spent the first day riding a horse and camel, which is should be on the second day. We had a windy day on the second day based on the forecast so Angarag swap the itinerary and i’m glad he did it because we could’ve riding the horse and camel safely.

Visit Mongolia’s giant Chinggis Khaan statue, Turtle Rock, and Aryabal Temple on a flexible seven-hour tour from Ulaanbaatar.

“Had such a great day on the tour to the Genghis Khan Statue and Terelj National Park! Our guide Jana was fantastic – so friendly, enthusiastic, and funny. She always knew the best spots for views and photos, and even helped take lots of great pictures for me. The park is huge, but Jana managed the time well, so we could explore the highlights without feeling rushed. The scenery along the way was stunning, and we got back to the city around 4 pm. Lunch was another highlight – traditional Mongolian lamb stew and soup, absolutely delicious. I’d happily join Jana’s tour again!”

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.”

Ride through Mongolia’s Terelj National Park, visit Turtle Rock and Aryabal Temple, enjoy lunch, and see the Chinggis Khan statue on a small-group day trip.

“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 -…”

“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.”

“It was a nice day to venture to the outskirts of Ulaanbaatar. Weather is beyond anyone's control.
