Overview

What sets this Ulaanbaatar walking tour apart is its genuine dive into everyday life far beyond the usual tourist spots. Instead of sticking to city highlights, you wander through a quiet northern ger district where locals live against a stunning natural backdrop. It’s not just sightseeing—it’s hands-on. Cooking traditional huushuur (Mongolia's beloved flat-fried dumpling) inside a Mongolian ger, playing ancient games, and joining eco-friendly activities create a deeply immersive experience. The blend of culture, nature, and food, combined with small groups and an expert local guide, makes this day trip feel personal and authentic—offering a side of Mongolia most visitors never get to see.
