Ulaanbaator in a day... - A fantastic introduction to my stay in Mongolia. My day began in heavy overnight snowfall at the serene Buddhist temple where I witnessed the monks chanting. We continued around the must see National Museum and Central Square districts before visiting the ex Soviet style monument in the afternoon with breathtaking views over the city. The evening cultural performance gives you an insight into the musical and cultural traditions of Mongolia. I highly rate this tour and guide!

Well done! - Our guide was terrific. She saw us through the programme and was very thorough with explanations of the things and with Mongolian history. Her English skills were excellent and she was very open about the situation in the country as she sees it.
