Very enjoyable walking tour in Ulaanbaatar

I had a great time with the guide who was a very bright young student with knowledge of history and local traditions and what Ulaanbaatar has to offer. The tour was completely customizable and the highlight for me was visiting the Gandan Monastery.

For efficient sightseeing in the city of Ulaanbaatar

It was an efficient tour of Ulaanbaatar city sightseeing spots. The view from Zaisan Monument hill was amazing! The pick-up call at the hotel was smooth. The guide was fluent in English and had no trouble communicating. The explanation was neither too much nor too little. The location of the visit was this time left to the guide (to suggest). Be aware that the traffic in Ulaanbaatar is very heavy, so the location and time of your visit may change depending on the traffic conditions. They also suggested other tours and airport transfers along the way, but it helped me not to push too much. If there is a place or something you want to do, they will make suggestions.
