A must trip for those with limited time in Mongolia.
It’s been an amazing trip! Guide and driver were super friendly and we ended up knowing more about Mongolia. Accommodations were good, we were staying in a ger on the first night which has excellent facilities, on the second night we chose to stay in a wooden house which was a good experience too. I think this trip is good for those who only stay in Mongolia for a short period of time, me and my friend had seen a lot in these 3 days and we really enjoyed the nomad life.

Avoid this scammer
A shameless scammer! The tour organiser clearly has no idea what they are doing and are in the business only to rip off tourists.
Firstly, the program was terribly inconvenient! A day's drive to the west on the first day, only to reach our destination at night and miss half the activities scheduled. Then back to Ulaanbaatar and further to the east the next day, spending all day in the car, still far behind schedule. The third day was better as it was fewer hours in the car and at least some time spent enjoying the activities. It was obvious that those activities should have never been crammed in a 3-day tour.
But the worst part of all, and the actual scam here, was the accommodation! We paid c. €460 per person to be thrown in some godawful yurts with a shared bathroom in worse condition than an army camp and served prison quality food. We later found out that those cost c. €20 per person per night, food included. We stayed in that yurt for the first night. The second night, upon arriving at a similar place we demanded to be moved to a proper accommodation and indeed, after making a big fuss about it, we did go to a fancy place nearby, costing c. €55 per person per night, fitting what we paid for and expected from the beginning.
I have to mention, though, that our tour guide did everything in his power to accommodate us and make this experience as pleasant for us as possible and for that we are thankful. He was also very friendly and knowledgeable. We also admired the off-road skills of our driver. But none of that could ever make up for the horrendous scam we were caught into.
AVOID!
