Great walking tour!
I don't always write reviews, but this one had none and it deserves a mention! This self guided audio tour was a fantastic way to spend an hour walking Ulaanbaatar, learning the history and some of the people that shaped it - including, surprise, Marco Polo! If you're going to be walking the streets anyway, you might as well learn a thing or two, plus you can pause this tour, enter museums and restart the tour when you're done. Highly recommend it!
