About

Sain baina uu! We’re happy to welcome you to our home. We are a friendly family who is originally from central Mongolia (since ancient times) and has over ten years of experience in trips to the countryside.

Our house is the perfect place to land in UlaanBaatar before making your way to Central, East, West, North or South Mongolia. We are just a short walk to the main avenue where there are many shops, restaurants, pubs, cafes and banks. We recommend staying 3 to 5 nights in UB to make the most out of what the city has to offer, but also take time to plan your trip into nature. We can discuss your chosen route before or after you arrive.

Our tours are always a maximum of two jeeps. You will not end up in a convoy of tourist mini vans. In the same spirit, we will prioritize your sleeping arrangements to be in nomad-owned gers instead of tourist ger camps (unless you prefer otherwise). We have kept close relationships with local nomad families over several years, you might even end up in one of our relatives’ ger!

We pride ourselves in the tailored tours we are able to offer, for groups or solo travelers. Please get in touch with any questions you might have!
Tours that we organize:
- Short trips to Terelj national park, Khustai national park, Elsen Tasarkhai (Mongol Els) mini gobi,
- Tour to Gobi desert
- Tours to Central part of Mongolia
- Tours to north, east and west parts of Mongolia
- Horse trekking in Terelj National park and in Eight lakes
- Home stay with nomad family
- City tour … etc.

Excellent hostel. Well run and very clean. Breakfast at 9:00am was a chance to meet other travellers. I did a day trip to the national park, organised by the hostel owners, which was excellent.

There was a bit of confusion when we arrived, which probably has to do with system. They were very accommodating and the showers were hot, with towels provided. They don’t have a credit card processor so they let us pay in our own currency since we were out of MNT.
