Summary: I organised a 4 day tour of Central Mongolia for myself and my 20 year old son with Enza who was amazing. She was very helpful, quick to respond and we felt we were in good hands from the beginning. The trip was well paced, the activities excellent (horse riding around the mountain a particular highlight!), the accomodation was good and the food tasty. Our driver, Miyegombo, was very considerate who took great care of the vehicle, drove responsibly and was very obliging when we needed coffee / bathroom breaks! Batbaatar was very knowledgeable about history, translated famous Mongolian songs and poems for us and shared Mongolian customs with us. It was a pleasure travelling with the two of them and we were able to include quiet / down time as well which was appreciated. We couldn’t have asked for a better introduction to Mongolia and would love to come back (and bring more of the family!). I would thoroughly recommend Enza Tours!

Summary: Our trip to Mongolia was an unforgettable experience, made even more special thanks to our tour guide, Moon. From start to finish, Moon showed incredible patience, kindness, and dedication to ensuring our comfort and care. He not only guided us through Mongolia’s breathtaking landscapes and cultural treasures but also made sure every detail of our journey was smooth and stress-free. His calm presence, clear explanations, and genuine hospitality gave us confidence throughout the trip, and we always felt well taken care of. Traveling in Mongolia is an adventure, and having a guide like Moon made all the difference — we could simply enjoy the beauty around us, knowing we were in excellent hands. We are deeply grateful for Moon’s guidance and the wonderful memories he helped us create. Highly recommend him to anyone planning to explore Mongolia!

Summary: Took my 17 year old son and daughter, was a great experience. Highly recommend. Mongolia is beautiful and I didn't want to leave. Food was delicious. Alot of time on the road driving, as Mongolia is vast, but worth it.
