Amazing experience! My guide Odko was extremely helpful and nice. The temple and the surroundings are really beautiful, they worth a visit! Just pay attention, if you'd like to see the statues you have to climb a bit. (Nothing difficult but better let everyone know)
Aglag Buteel is beautiful

There was a big miscommunication with my tour guide about what this tour should entail, the tour operator was very apologetic and made an effort to make up the missed part of the tour the next day however. I felt like on the first day of the tour to Aglag Buteel I recieved very little guidance, and more often then not I was being left behind and alone by my tour guide without much information about the temple. The next day the tour guide had to makeup the Gandan Temple part of the tour, and she offered a lot more guidance and instruction, it was much better. I understand I am quiet, but I still paid for a tour and I kind of felt like I could have just hired a driver to take me to Aglag Buteel for much less money and walked around by myself instead. The guidance I was given by the guide for the Gandan Temple part of the tour was much better, I hope that going forward that’s the kind of guidance each patron will receive.

A fantastic tour up into the snow capped mountains. The hike up to the temple was steep but the view from the top was breathtaking.
