There were some logistical difficulties with my booking, due to it being short-notice (5 hours before) and during their offseason (winter). This resulted in my tour guide not showing up on the day of my tour. At first I wondered if this Rara Avis was a scam agency, but I decided to give them a call on WhatsApp to see what happened. They were extremely apologetic and gave me a full refund and offered me a complimentary trip. I didn’t go in looking for any of that, but they were that dedicated to customer service. So I rescheduled my trip for the next day. I was the only tourist, so it was just me and my guide (Dorj) in the van together. He was so knowledgeable, thoughtful, kind, and personable! Honestly, spending the time with him may have been my favorite part of the tour (3hr tour to Chinggis Khaan statue). That’s not to take away from the Statue itself—it was amazing, and a great experience! While there I also got to ride a camel and have an eagle rest on my arm! Advice I would give: Make sure to book a day in advance, at the very least. That is the most fair for Rara Avis, especially during their offseason. Also, make sure to enjoy the time with the guide(s)! They are a wonderful part of the experience you wouldn’t want to miss.
Fantastic guide. Clean car, knowledgeable, flexible and accommodating guide! Red provided the right amount of information without rushing us and allowed us the freedom to wander.
Really great trip. The driver was very knowledgeable about the statue and had plenty of information to share. Shuttle pickup was located at a convenient spot and easy to find. Visiting the statue was a lot of fun.
Thank you so much for your kind review! We’re delighted to hear that you had a great trip and found the visit to the statue enjoyable.
Nice drive out there, and the statue was incredible. The driver was excellent and stopped a few places to allow me to take photos.
Thank you so much for your kind words! We’re glad you enjoyed the drive and found the statue as incredible as we do. Our driver/guide will be so happy to hear they helped make your trip memorable. We’d love to have you join us for another adventure sometime. Safe travels!
The most efficient, budget, fair tour that is offered in Ulaanbaatar. No hassle, no confusion. Enjoy the tour everyone.
Thank you for your fantastic review! It's wonderful to know everything went smoothly and you had a hassle-free experience. We hope to see you again soon!
Highly recommended my tour guide Yogi is probably the most knowledgable tour guide i've had.. He also went out of his way to asssist me with what I need to do in between the tour & looked fter me very well preety much gave me a full introduction on Mongolian history & culture. Overall it was an amazing experience.
I can't recommend this tour company highly enough. The booking process was professional and fuss free. My guide was Tunya, who was really friendly with great local knowledge and interesting insights into the places that we visited and who also happily talked about all aspects of life in Mongolia. It was great having Tunya to explain different aspects at Gandantegchenling Monastery and the Bogd Khan Palace Museum. Definitely made it a more meaningful experience. I also enjoyed having a chance to taste local dairy products at a local market. Lunch was a delicious local soup, Yum! Overall a great day tour that I'd highly recommend.
<p>My guide, Tunya, was excellent. We had a great time walking around the area. She was great in explaining what I was seeing and the pacing was very good.</p>
<p>My tour guide is great, bringing me to all the places listed on the tour and as well many local places, such as Ger Area and Black Market. However, the local lunch experience caused some stomach issue.</p>
<p>Before coming to Mongolia, I did not know what to expect as it was a spur-of-the-moment trip and did not know much of the country. After taking this tour, I learned SO much about the Mongolia's history and culture. Words cannot express how wonderful my tour guide, Tselmeg, was. She had so much information and insight to tell. Since it is winter and there aren't many tourists, I was the only one with her and the driver, Uchral. I have to admit that it was very nice to have a private tour of Ulaanbaatar. As we toured the monasteries, museum, and had lunch we discussed history, politics, religion, food, etc. These two women gave me the best tour I have ever had and I thank them for opening my eyes to this beautiful country. I would love to return here and would book another tour with these two again. Highly recommend!</p>
