My wife and I had a fantastic tour of Ulaanbaatar, and the Chinngis Khaan Monument back on 28 November. Our tour guide Bayar was PHENOMENAL! He went above and beyond to explain many different aspects of Mongolia, past and present. He also made sure to accommodate our dietary restrictions for our tour lunch, but ensured we still experienced the National dishes (Tsiuvan, Buuz, khushuur) in a vegan version. We truly enjoyed our time in Ulaanbaatar, and Bayar is definitely the reason why! We plan on returning in the near future! We HIGHLY recommend this tour!

My friend and I booked a tour with Juulchin which was recommended by another friend who visited Mongolia recently. Saruul who is one of the managers was very patient and collaborated closely with me to design a customised tour of Gobi, Terejl and Karakorum. Using Whatsapp for coordinating was very efficient as I did not have time to spend over the phone and Saruul was always responsive. We did not know what to expect visiting a developing country but we were highly surprised by the following: - very professional approach by all Juulchin employees. Saruul , Adiya (tour guide) and the 2 drivers we had. Have travelled a lot to developing countries and I can safely say I wasnt expecting such high standards - very nice accommodation in luxury gers with ensuite bathroom/shower. If you are used to western standards and want own bathroom opt for "luxury" ger as you may be disappointed otherwise (shared facilities can always pose issues). All the camps we stayed were great and clean. The food provided was also very good in the majority of the cases with a variety of dishes and a good mix of local and international cuisine. The only problem is that there a lot of flies in Mongolia but that's not something the tour agency can fix. Perhaps the tour agency can provide feedback to the ger camps and they can take action with fumigation or other devices (even closing the restaurant doors or installing hanging stripes to prevent flies) - I would like to specifically mention and recommend Adiya. He is a young and very enthusiastic tour guide who was keen and able to showcase the amazing Mongolian landscapes, fauna and flora, and its rich history. Very proud of his country; his contagious enthusiasm made our experience in Mongolia much better as he was able to motivate us even when we had low energy levels. We also enjoyed a lot the personal interaction over drinks where we was explaining to us more about everyday life for Mongolian people and his generation All in all it was great value for money experience and I would highly recommend Juulchin Tourism Corporation but please be careful as there are many similar sounding tour companies in Mongolia (Juulchin means tourism) so have to make sure you go to the right one ([email protected] and phone number under this TA entry are the correct ones)

Mongolia is a hidden gem tucked away between Russia & China, this beautiful country of 3 million inhabitants has lots to offer! Our travel agent Nomadic of Blue Skies designed an itinerary for 8 of us family members, ages ranging from 17 – 85! Mr. Uuganbayr Batbold (Boldoo), Director of the agency was personally interacting with me to plan the itinerary. We set off from Ulaan Baatar in two vehicles & explored central Mongolia for the next 7 days. The arrangements were superb, the vehicles were in good condition & we had skilled drivers Kuko & Pujai to transport us safely over the off road sections. We covered Terelj National Park, Khustai National Park to see the wild horses, at Elsen Tasarkhai we climbed the sand dunes, visited the Erdene Zuu Monastry, enjoyed the hot springs at Thenkher & had a stop over at picturesque Ugii Lake. The highlight of our trip was a visit to a typical nomad ger(tented dwelling). The couple welcomed us and served us some local delicacies. Our senior English speaking tour guide Mr. Tuvshoor was very professional and well informed about Mongolia. He was very attentive to our every request! The junior guide Ms Nara was very caring of my elderly parents. I would not hesitate to recommend Nomadic of Blue Sky as the preferred travel agent to organize a truly Mongolian Experience!
