Our guide (Anar) and driver (Ganaa) were absolutely fantastic for the whole of our three day stay. The Alun Goo lodge was delightful with good food and lovely friendly welcoming staff. We had a fire lit each evening so were warm and toasty. Anar was so passionate and enthusiastic about the history and future of her country, we learnt so much from her. Danaa was an amazing driver - Mongolian roads are something else! They checked weather forecasts and tweaked trips to avoid rain which was so thoughtful and kind. Anar's English was excellent and her knowledge amazing encouraging questions. After three days we felt we had two fabulous new friends. Mongolia is a truly special place made most magical by Anar and Ganaa. The scenery in the Terelj park is fantastic, it was so lovely to have horses grazing right outside our ger each morning and also watching herdsmen gathering their animals on horse or motor bike. The animals all looked so well cared for and so content. We have fallen in love with Mongolia. Recommended visits are Chenggis Khaan statue, National Museum and visit to Kazak/nomad family.We had a fantastic 2 night tour to terelj and nuruu national park. Along the way we were shown several other tourist locations. The accommodation and food was 5 star ! I would specially like to thank our guide Nora for her great company and explanation thorough out the tour. :)

Wow -- this tour company was excellent. We tried 2 other companies - Tour radar and Viator. Tour Radar was good, but Juulchin was better. Viator tours we do not recommend. Juulchin set up a tour at the last minute after a tour set up by Viator was a no-show the morning of the scheduled tour - in fact, the Viator tour guide did not answer phone calls or text messages - basically took our money and no one showed (we did finally get a refund from Viator, but not worth it.) In contrast, Juulchin was at the hotel within an hour of the call. The driver and tour guide were fun, and interesting and the guide had excellent English and was a wealth of information. In addition to the statute, we visited a nomadic family that provided us with a horse tour. The lunch was one of the best we had in Mongolia. We looked to see if we could use them for other tours but were unable to cancel prior scheduled tours. Juulchin will be our go-to when we return.Fantastic experience, guide and driver were incredible would highly recommend to all travellers looking to explore Mongolia.

We were in Mongolia on a small group tour doing the Trans Mongolian Railway. While in Mongolia, we had Juulchin World Tours as our local guide. They also provided the bus and driver. Our time in Mongolia consisted of a city tour and night in Ulaanbatar followed by some nights in gers in the national parks and a final night in Ulaanbatar. We had the same guide (Uno) and driver throughout. Everything went very smoothly and the guide and driver were of the highest quality. Juulchin seem to be a pretty large operation as we saw 3 or 4 of their buses while we were there. I would happily recommend them.
