Vacation rentals with breakfast in Ulaanbaatar

The hosts were very friendly and nice people. The host couple provided us with a great Terelj guide and a delicious dinner at their home. Thank you Degi and Sarah.

Sleeping in a ger in the middle of Mongolia is truly a once in a lifetime experience! It was fascinating to see first hand how the Nomad people live (and celebrate Lunar New Year), who's traditions and etiquette remain unchanged after thousands of years. I visited many Nomad families during my 4 day stay, all of whom were welcoming and friendly, offering me traditional Mongolian food such as Buuz (steamed dumplings), goats milk, horse milk, camel milk, cheese, sweets and plenty of vodka! The nomad family took me horse riding and camel riding (you need to pay extra), and we also visited a Tibetan Buddhist site in the mountains. I think Nandin has a few different gers scattered across Mongolia, so your experience may differ depending on the location, but I stayed in Kharkhorin, which took between 5 and 6 hours by bus from Ulaanbaatar. I didn't meet Nandin however she is an exceptional host who was always available and even went above and beyond to help arrange transport to the airport.

The contact with the host was always prompt👍 The facilities were better than I thought, and it was nice that hot water was provided. In particular, it was so nice that the caretaker was kind and thoughtful ^ - ^ Meals can be done by watching the turtle rocks. Thanks to the caretaker, I was able to enjoy horseback riding at an affordable price, and I was able to watch milk at dawn. I was worried about arriving at the airport at dawn, but it was nice that there was also a pick-up service, and in particular, I was grateful to the coach for dropping me off at a good place so that we could see the stars on the way to the accommodation, and also sightseeing the wonderful places in Terlj on the way to the city. 😀 It was low season, so it was good because there weren't many tourists. Instead, most restaurants are not open. I want to buy a lot of food in advance and feel the nature of Mongolia again here. All the villagers were kind, so it was a pleasant and relaxing time for two nights in Terliji.❤️
