Holiday rentals with a fireplace in Mongolia

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.

숙소가 광장과 진짜 가깝고 UB의 주요 박물관과 관광지, 백화점, 레스토랑 등에서 도보로 10~20분 안에 가능한 위치라 너무 좋았습니다 ! 특히 편의점도 3~4분 거리에 있고 숙소 바로 앞에 작은 잡화점도 있어요 안방 침대와 침구도 청결하고 포근했고 아침저녁으로 안방의 창문으로 보이는 도심 풍경이 보기 좋았습니다. 집안 전체가 따뜻하고 온수도 잘 나왔어요. 집처럼 편안한 숙소 덕분에 추운 겨울 UB에서 한달 동안 따뜻하고 즐겁게 잘 지내다 귀국했습니다🥰 호스트분과의 소통이 쉽고 응대도 바로 해주셔서 진심으로 감사했습니다♡

시내 중심부에 위치해 있어 편리합니다. 국영백화점도 가깝고 좋습니다. 전 에어비앤비로 이 곳을 예약해서 처음에는 게스트하우스라고만 생각했는데 여행사도 같이 하니 이 곳에서 하는 투어 프로그램도 이용하시는게 좋을 것 같습니다. 저는 우리나라 여행사를 이용해서... 여기 직원분들에게 좀 죄송하더라고요. 직원들도 모두 친절하니 영어 소통이 가능하신 분이면 이 곳에서 투어와 숙박을 하는 것도 좋을 것 같습니다.

Good communication, clean and conveniently located apartment!
