We had a great time in Mongolia. Our guide Khishgee was super nice and very professional, also our driver (Zorgo ?) was a very nice man and driver. The highlight of the trip were the four days horse riding. After we complained after 1.5 days about the route being too close to the street, they changed the route for riding more in remote areas. The horse guide shall in general know that we do not come to Mongolia to do a horse riding tour along a busy country road. All the hotels/Ger Camps we stayd were very good and we enjoyed at the end having everytime our own bathrooms attached. The hotel in Karakorum was really good and nice to have after four days without a shower and toilet. Gobi Desert was really nice too and we truly enjoyed that we had expressed the wish that we do not change Camps every night in Gobi but rather stay in one camp for three nights. It meant maybe a little more driving but it was much more relaxed not having to pack and unpack very day. Plus it enabled our teenaged children to skip either a morning or afternoon excursion. The Dream Gobi Ger Camps was a very good camp to stay in. Also the Best Western Hotel in Ulaanbataar was a very nice hotel and top location. Maybe we could have left Ulaanbataar on the second day earlier to avoid more traffic and arrive earlier in the Hustai Ger Camp. Otherwise, we were very lucky during out trip that we only had rain showers in the evening with being in a camp or tent and otherwise, we had dry, warm and sunny days and in Gobi not too hot days.

Very nice horse guides. They were very friendly and good people. We were only not so happy with the route they had in mind which was too close to a busy country road but they changed that after we complained. The food was nice, and they catered well for us when we decided not too eat too much meat all the time.

Wow - what an incredible trip to Mongolia! We (my friend and I - two women in our late 20s) had a phenomenal time exploring the diverse landscapes of Mongolia and the incredible hospitality of locals. We had Zaya as our tour guide and she was amazing at her role. We felt safe and well taken care of the entire time. Her knowledge is unmatched and she is a very talented translator. Our drivers (Mogi and I apologise but I am forgetting the name of the second equally amazing driver) were both wonderful and went above and beyond expectations to look after us (lots of photo stops, toilet stops, joined us horse riding, played card games with us, cooked for us etc.).

I feel so lucky to have experienced two weeks (15 days) in this country, exploring the north, central and south. We went horse riding to the west taiga tribe, visited Gobi Dessert, went camel riding, attended Nadam festival, visited Hutsai National Park and saw so many Przewalski's horses, milked horses, goats and yaks, visited a stunning waterfall and stayed in the ger's of many welcoming locals.

Thank you thank you thank you for such a fantastic trip!

We recently completed a cultural tour of Mongolia and had an amazing time. We went to Mongolia outside the peak period at the onset of winter but Crystal managed to put together an amazing itinerary over 13 days.

We travelled to west to stay with Kazak eagle hunters and to the north to stay with the Tsaatan reindeer herders. We also saw natural wonders including the Lake Khovsgol, Jargant river and the wild Takhi horses. A visit to Mongolia wouldn’t be complete without historical sites and memorials

Our guide, Zaya, was excellent, working overtime to make sure we were always comfortable. Zaya’s historical and cultural knowledge were an essential part of the immersive experience.

Travelling in rural Mongolia can be challenging given the sparse landscape and weather conditions. However, Zaya worked tirelessly with our drivers and the local communities to ensure our tour always went smoothly and without issues.

I would definitely recommend a trip to Mongolia with Crystal for anyone looking for an adventurous experience wrapped in a premium tour.

Zara was an excellent guide. The trip was really well managed. However, we feel that the itinerary could have been better managed- For eg. we could have done places closer to Ulaan Batar towards the end of the trip instead of the beginning especially as there was a lot of driving towards the second half of the trip. Further, it would have been helpful if we were informed about the fact that there were ensuite accommodation available as well.

We have traveled the world but have never found a better firm than Premium Travel Mongolia. We unhesitatingly recommend this firm to anyone who wants an educational, comfortable, entertaining and enlightening overview of this wonderful, ancient yet modern country.
Crystal was very responsive and custom-built a trip to match our needs. The trip throughout central Mongolia was extremely well planned, with multiple adventures every day. From stays at ger camps - from luxurious to just plain comfortable - climbing volcanos, relaxing in hot springs, visiting historic and cultural sites and riding horses and camels, we never lacked opportunities to learn about this amazing country. We even got to work with golden eagles and participate in Naadam in Dalan ZadGad and learn about all the fascinating events.
We were extremely privileged to have Suvd for our guide and Tsogtoo for our driver. The best of the best. They both have a great sense of humor and kept us laughing the whole time. He is a highly competent, calm and careful driver who keeps the car spotless every day. Suvd, who speaks excellent English and gets every joke, has a wealth of knowledge about Mongolia's history, culture, celebrations, sports, flora and fauna. Both struggled to teach us to play the ankle bone game which provided a fun way to relax at the end of the day. Suvd went above and beyond by ensuring that all the camp cooks respected my dietary restrictions.
At the end of the trip we were overcome to find that the team had organized a 46th anniversary gift for us - everything we will need to continue to play the ankle bone game back home! We will never forget this trip and unhesitatingly recommend

A wonderful ger camp with a great restaurant and comfortable gers. Yaks walk through the camp during the day, and it is easy to do horseback riding or take a trip to the Wishing Island. There is even a local bunny.
