Vacation rentals with breakfast in Mongolia

Sofia and her husband were so incredibly helpful for visiting Ulgii and the Golden Eagle Festival! From picking me up to the airport, to finding a SIM card and hiring a driver for the festival, Sofia was my go-to person and was always patient for a first-time visitor to Kazakh parts of Mongolia. Thanks so much and hope to visit again someday!

More than an accommodation on AirBnB, it’s a unique all-inclusive experience. Do you want to discover the remote provinces of Mongolia and the life of the nomads? Enkhbayar is the right person for you. I spent a month alone with him, here is my feedback: 1- Why do you need a guide? Impossible to travel very far from the capital without a guide: chaotic roads (huge holes, mud, rivers...), extremely difficult driving (expect breakdown, puncture), no signs (even the locals get lost), complicated communication (no English speakers). Enkhbayar speaks quite good English, knows the north-west of Mongolia perfectly, and is an outstanding driver! Note: I wanted to go to the summer camp to document the nomadic life of reindeer herders, but if the journey is too long for you, Enkhbayar is very flexible and can take you wherever you want. He has different offers (1 day, 3 days, one week, etc.) and knows a lot of herders if you need (cows, horses, sheep, and even camels). 2- My stay in Mongolia with Enkhbayar Arrival in Ulan-Bator on 12/07, Enkhbayar came to pick me up at the airport at 6am. Departure for the reindeers camp the next morning. 5 days of travel (40h to 50h depending on the weather) to Tsagaannuur, magnificent landscapes, then horseback riding for 10 hours to reach the camp which is a few kilometres from the Russian border. I had never ridden a horse before (it went quite well despite some aches and pains; note that this last stage is psychologically/physically difficult - you can do it in 2 days by sleeping in a tent). Note: for the reindeers camp, it’s also possible to get a flight for Hovsgol, in order to avoid 2 or 3 days in car. Life in the camp Travelling alone, I slept in Enkhbayar's tipi with his wife and son. I was offered a private tipi but we were already getting on very well so we tipi-shared. They cooked every morning, lunchtime, evening. A few years ago they had a restaurant so they make very good food! Meat, noodles, soups, ravioli, bread, reindeer butter, reindeer milk... Staying several weeks I was able to sympathize with some nomads of the camp. To have a real discussion with them, I had to go through the translation of Enkhbayar. I can't describe in a few lines all the richness of this culture. Their hospitality and generosity is incredible; all the people in the camp are extremely kind. Tsattan and shamanism These people are called Tsattan because they are reindeer herders. Most of them are Buddhists and also follow the principles of shamanism. Enkhbayar's wife is a shaman. Respect their traditions and the rules that follow and you will have very good memories. The shamans in this camp do not use drugs or alcohol, so don't worry. Just make sure you don't take photos, videos or record sounds during the rituals (which are very occasional). The return The return journey also went very well. It is still a very long trip (count 6 days from the camp to Ulaanbaatar in order to have the possibility to have some breaks). If these few lines have made you want to visit Mongolia, I invite you to contact Enkhbayar. You can also contact me through him.

I had a wonderful time with them. From the first day that I arrived at the airport until I left the city, they really take care of my condition and help to make a great tour. The room was clean, cozy, comfortable! They also prepare portable heater in case of the cold weather. I ate hand made Mongolian traditional food all day. It was very nice experience. (I love the camel milk😆) I took a shower with hot water. I had a good time with their family. They introduce Mongolian traditional game. There are so many other great moments, too many to list them all. Thank you for having a wonderful time in Dalanzadgad. Баярлалаа😀

Excellent host, lovely kind, generous. Recommend this abode to anyone and everyone

Boogii's apartment was so convenient to the airport. 15 mins max. comfortably accommodated 6 persons. Zuunmod itself offered convenient supermarket,restaurants, authentic mongolia cuisine, mountain trekking. Boogii is an exceptional host. Very warm, approachable, and helpful. She arranged transfers and made suggestions. Thanks again Boogii.

Good place to stay for travellers, as Tsegii is also working as a guide, be sure to get all tips and information about UB and the fantastic country.

We were so much help while in Ulaanbaatar. It was a great choice because it was right near the airport, so I had to go out to the airport again the next morning. After this, I came back to Ulaanbaatar and stayed in another hotel, but they gave me a lot of travel information and even picked me up to the airport. Thank you to the host.
