Ultimate Terelj Day Trip: Mongolia's Wild Beauty Unveiled

The driver and guide were very kind and suggested tours that would allow you to fully enjoy the charm of Terelj. The horse riding experience with the locals was fantastic.

Rated Gala 5/5 because of his excellent service he provided with us! 🩷 He accommodated all our requests, and considering that he is the guide and the driver at the same time, he still communicates and answers our questions. I know it’s tiring but he never showed us that! He is also open to suggestions we shared to make his tours better for the future clients! For the tour itself: We did the Gobi tour. expect a lot of driving and being on the road. Make sure your seatbelts are worn even in the back. Some Gers don’t have showers so prepare for that! There is hiking in the Sand Dunes! Nevertheless, Mongolia is beautiful! We enjoyed the landscapes!

My name is Josh, lives in Beijing, China, works as a teacher. I went to Mongolia last summer. I had only 3 days in Ulanbatar, so I took a day-trip to Terelj national park which is only hour and half drive from the hotel where I stayed. I chose Gala from iTour Mongolia travel agency. He picked me up at the hotel with his own toyota SUV that is super comfortable because I'm the only traveler. It was exclusive to me. We drove straight to the statue of Genghis Khan then go to national park that includes hiking to Meditation temple and riding Mongolian horses. On the way back, we made short stop for let me try fermented mare's milk, that was amazing. Whole tour was tremendous. I recommend iTour Mongolia if you make a trip to terelj national park. Thank you!

I'm expat in Mongolia, when I first came here I felt everything different. Before Mongolia I been to bunch of countries to live in. Mongolia was very much different than those. I've always wanted to live like a real nomad, riding horses like locals, do same as nomadic housewives daily work. Last summer I made it over and helped by Gala. It was amazing to live with nomadic family. I rode horse everyday, making cheese and curds, drinking airag /fermented mare's milk/ was my favorite. I got nicest hosts who were the most hospitable people I had ever met. Gala /owner of the company/ connected the family and organized everything. I have loads of experience now and when I'm back to Canada I have plenty of stories to tell. Thanks to all I met during the trip. Thanks to iTour team for wonderful trip.

I'm Roland from Germany, lives in Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia, teaching English. I have been living here for 2 and half years now. The last over a year staying home to do my job online because of Covid. Before Covid I barely went out of the city Ulaanbaatar. The summer of 2020, some of my workmates suggested me to travel to West Altai. I asked Gala to make our trip to West. His team worked fluently and we enjoyed Kazakh part of Mongolia. We are planning to go to Reindeer people next summer. I hope Gala and his team will arrange our next trip greatly. Stay healthy, stay strong. Recommend!

We had the most amazing experience in Mongolia with iTour team. The owner of the company is so helpful and great organizer. We were super happy with the itinerary and accommodation he gave us. The delicious food, amazing landscape, nice people made our trip extend 3 more days. Mongolia is an incredible country, I loved it. So many thanks to iTour Mongolia. Highly recommend

We made incredible trip to Mongolian Gobi for 6 days. It was our first time in Mongolia, I traveled with my 3 other co-workers. We really wanted to see the Gobi desert, riding a camel and standing alone in the middle of nowhere. We exactly did what we wanted to do. Tour organizer was so kind and professional. He offered us to choose English or Korean speaking guide for the trip. Our guide and driver were excellent for their job. We four still talk about the Gobi tour in Mongolia, it's never forgettable. Thank to iTour Mongolia. I always recommend this team for ones who ask me which one is the best tour company in Mongolia.

Mongolia is a vast country and traveling independently can be quite challenging, aside from expensive, specially for solo travelers like me. Luckily, I found iTour Mongolia on TripAdvisor. After reading its consistently excellent reviews, I contacted Gala. I emailed Gala the list of places I want to see, the activities I want to do and my preferences for accommodations. All my emails were quickly answered. He offered a good value for money 5-day Central Mongolia tour incorporating all the items on my list. And so, I had everything organized by Gala. I have to say, everything was arranged seamlessly -- from the airport pick up, day-to-day itinerary, accommodations, meals... Yes, everything was included, even the admission tickets and my daily supply of bottled water for the entire trip. Gala is my professional guide and expert driver while Ariuna is in-charge of preparing delicious Mongolian dishes and doubled as my reliable photographer. My days started at 8:30AM, breakfast time. Then off we went for full day of sightseeing, learning and fun. Our journeys were long and exhausting but Gala's Toyota Land Cruiser Prado is ever dependable on rough roads. During road trips, I was blessed with stunning views of Mongolia's untouched nature and herds of cattles and wild horses freely roaming around. I visited historical, cultural and scenic sites like Kharkhorin, Elsen Tasarkhai, Khustai National Park, Gun Galuut Nature Reserve, Ugii Lake, Terelj National Park. I enjoyed both the horse and bactrian camel rides. Staying with a nomadic family was the most special part of this tour for me. I will never forget their gracious and warm welcome. They even prepared local pancakes for my breakfast! Truly an authentic Mongolian experience. It taught me to appreciate life's beauty in simplicity! Thank you Gala and Ariuna for the wonderful time and personalized service. For those traveling to Mongolia, let itour Mongolia organize your expedition... It is the best way to go!

I had a fantastic trip organized by iTour. Our trip headed to Central part of Mongolia for visiting some historical sites and horseback riding in Orkhon valley. Every single night we stayed true nomadic families and I was super amazed how they live through severe weather. At the first, I was bit worried how to ride horse because it was my first time, then I got instructed by my horse guide and easily used to it. We also visited Karkorun/ old capital/ and the Buddhist monastery, our guide explained everything. He is quite knowledgeable and the best organizer. Those days are never forgettable. I surely come back to Mongolia. "Bayrlaa" "Thank you" iTour Mongolia

Me and my friend spent 8 days together with Gala and Aruna and had the best time ever. They picked us up at the airport took us to our hotel and made sure we where ok after a long trip to Mongolia. Next day we started out journey to the horse riding and we had sich a fun time. Me ans my friend are vegeterians and in a land with big focus on meat ARuna cooked the most amazing food ever with limited resoueces and only fire as a tool. We said she should have a cocking show. We stayed in Gur and at nomad families the complete time and experienced all four seasons one morning we woke up to a winter wonderland, amazing jur cold. Gala and Aruna made sure we where warm all night by going in to our Gur lighting the fire when it had burned down. I got ill suring the hore rising ans couldnt eat so aruna took well care of me and gala keept me warm ith fire and blankets. All in all i recomend everybody to go with iTours. Everybody involved in out trip was so kind and fun. Go go go!
