Ulaanbaatar is a city of striking contrasts, where ancient nomadic traditions meet the grand architecture of a rapidly evolving capital. This self-guided audio walking tour begins at the peaceful Natsagdorj Monument in Ulaanbaatar Public Park, setting the stage for an exploration of the city's rich history. As you wander through the bustling streets, you will encounter a landscape defined by centuries-old statues, impressive memorials, and the stories of the people who helped shape the nation of Mongolia.
The route takes you through the heart of the city, including the expansive SĂĽkhbaatar Square, which serves as a focal point for national identity and public life. You will also visit the iconic Chinggis Khaan Statue and the historic Choijin Lama Temple, each offering a glimpse into the spiritual and political heritage of the region.

Throughout the tour, you will hear thrilling tales about the kings, poets, and revolutionaries who left an indelible mark on the city. A particular highlight is the story of Dashdorjiin Natsagdorj, a celebrated poet whose verses continue to capture the love and spirit of the Mongolian people. These personal narratives bring the grand architecture and public squares to life, allowing you to connect with the history of the city on a much more intimate and personal level.
This tour is designed to be flexible, allowing you to explore the city at your own pace without any time constraints. Whether you are interested in the grand memorials or the quiet corners of the public parks, the experience offers a comprehensive overview of Ulaanbaatar's unique character. By the end of your walk, you will have gained a deeper understanding of the resilience, creativity, and enduring traditions that define this fascinating and wild capital city.

Customer Reviews
We had a wonderful and adventurous trip. Everything was beautifully organized, and the support was excellent (guide Tuka, drivers, cook, horseman). It's a shame the distances are so great between the special places to visit; the bad roads are part of the story, but sometimes also presented serious challenges that were always resolved beautifully (flat tire, broken truck drivetrain, broken jeep suspension, etc.). It sounds like a lot, but once you see the roads, you know enough, and it was very manageable. We saw a wonderful cultural show at the University Library, which actually fits better at the end of the trip. Very approachable management with great care for the customer! Thanks for everything and best of luck!! Danny and Marijke from Belgium.
We (five people) had a fantastic one-week trip put together by Suzan (Nomads Tours), and Tulga was our tour guide. He speaks excellent German, looked after us excellently, and we had a fantastic time. Both drivers were fantastic and guided us perfectly through the wilderness. We had high expectations, which were even exceeded. Hopefully, we can still visit the north and the Gobi with Nomads. Thank you very much!
If you want to visit Mongolia, begin by contacting Nomads. They can provide you with a group or individual tour designed for your time-frame and comfort level. I have traveled 8 times with Nomads to various regions of Mongolia, usually by horseback with local horsemen and guides, and have always been delighted with the accomodations (usually tents, with full kitchen truck support), food, security, and comfort. If your time is limited, or you don't enjoy camping or horseback riding, Nomads can still design a great experience of the city and the countryside in a land like no other.
