5.00Had the most amazing day trip to Terelj National Park and the Giant Chinggis Khaan Statue! The scenery was absolutely breathtaking, from rolling hills to the stunning statue itself. Our tour guide, Shinee, made the experience meaningful, and very approachable, knowledgeable, patient and attentive, making sure we enjoyed every moment along the way. Highly recommend this tour for anyone visiting Mongolia! will definitely come back again to this country and engage with this tour agency again. Reliable and very professional!

5.00it was great experience. The tour company Discover Mongolia is good ,because our hotel wasnt in Ulaanbaatar, but in remote country side which was 30 min away from the Genghis khan statue complex cause we stayed one night in ger before the tour. They picked us up at the resort with a spacious van . They tour guide ,Sara, spoke very good Chinese and she explained every detail of the itinerary professionally. The Genghis Khan statue is magnificent , the Normadic family we visited was an authentic one. The teenage girl was still nursing her crying baby brother when we visited. We could see that their ger was not for exhibition purpose but they really live in it. Tertlj national park was great also. The mongolian lunch served was good.
Good time exploring Mongolian flat lands

5.00My sister and I had a wonderful day trip with Shinee and driver to the Trelj national park. We drove out of UB in a nice air conditioned suv. We were exposed to Mongolian history, lore and politics. The Chinggis Khaan Statue was amazing up close. The landscape beautiful and vast. Our tour guide was knowledgeable and sweet. Lunch was amazing at a ger( yurt) camp. We road horses and saw a meditation center. Although it rained part of the day, we were still able to enjoy the outdoors away from UB for the day. I would recommend this tour.
