During the Lunar New Year in 2018, we visited Mongolia for 8 days. We are lucky to have Enkh Bold be our tour guide as he was considerate, patient, professional, and helpful to us during the whole trip. Despite his young age and cute face, we saw his impressive talents with horse riding, camel riding, and dog sledding; Enkh Bold was a trustworthy guide who made us feel safe. With his knowledgeable explanations about the history of Mongolia, we easily learned the local culture and adapted ourselves to the nomadic lifestyle. Moreover, under my partner’s request, Enkh Bold risked his life by offering my partner a chance to drive dog sledding, and my partner made him fall and be dragged by Huskies 7 times. That is a brave and admirable behavior as a tour guide.
Our driver Migaa’s steady, careful, skillful driving ability made us feel safe and comfortable, and the driving was so smooth even on rough roads that our photos from inside the car were not shaky at all. It was our honor to celebrate Migaa’s birthday during our trip, and it was touching when Migaa and Enkh Bold surprised us with a giant bottle of Mongolian beer in the dinner the next day. Because of this, they leave us a priceless memory, and we enjoyed the trip until the last moment. The landscapes and snow view in Mongolia are beautiful, so are Mongolians’ heart.
Discover Mongolia helped us maximize the time we spent in Mongolia with an itinerary that let us experience everything we wished to see. Very professional organization with great communication leading up to our trip. Our guide Ebo was fantastic and had plenty of insight to share. We always felt safe with our driver Damba, and he and Ebo made a great team!
We have been on a 6-day tour of the Gobi desert and Ulanbaatar with Discover Mongolia. Everything has been perfect from the choice of the attractions to visit, the choice of the hotel and restaurants, to the great guide (Hishi) and our very and friendly experienced driver. Great organization! We loved every minute of it !! Thanks!!!
Great tour! 5 Nights Central Mongolia Highlight Tour Three of us did this tour in early May 2018, our guide was Jack and driver Dambaa, both were great guys. It was a good time of year to travel, as it wasn't hot, and not a lot of other tourists about either. It was a packed tour with a lot of driving, but we had a lot of flexibility and were able to have rest breaks once we arrived at each Ger camp, and make small changes if we wanted to. The Ger camps were very well setup, and the three course included meals were all excellent. Who said the food in Mongolia wasn't good..... We also got to visit a couple of nomad families which was a great experience. They also dropped us off at the train station a couple of days after the tour, which is a free service most tour operators seem to do. The cultural show we saw after the tour at the Tumen-Ekh Folk Song and Dance Ensemble, was excellent too.
Reviewed May 30, 2018 via mobile Great day tour of Ulan Bator Five of us had a great day tour of Ulan Bator by minibus, with lunch included. We visited a temple, history museum, monument overlooking the city, had a great folklore show and included lunch. The only shopping time included was at our request. Great overview tour.
You'll never want to leave! My visit to Mongolia far exceeded all expectations. Discover Mongolia Travel put together a sweeping excursion for me as a single traveler that encompassed amazing star spangled nights in comfortable ger (yurts) in a series of locations, wildlife spotting, visiting a nomad family, visiting archaeologically sites, watching the wild Przewalski horses, the possibility of camel riding, climbing the astonishing Genghis Khan Equestrian Statue, also time in the city that included excellent shopping and relaxation in a lovely hotel. As the driver, Mr Bayarbat Davaadorj was very courteous, humorous and helpful as well as careful. His motto is "Safety first!" Ms. Oyungerel Tumurbatuide as a guide/interpreter was such a joy. She has excellent skills in speaking English, a wonderful friendly manner, and a wide range of knowledge to share about all aspects of Mongolia and Mongolian culture. This trip was so delightful, that it was truly difficult to depart.
