Summary: Ours was a customised 10 days tour instead of 6. And we are so glad we chose Enza and her team after getting quotes from several others. Our guide Amy was nothing but awesome. Amy was very patient with our requests and is knowledgeable abt various topics. Nothing was too much for her. We were also exceptionally impressed with our driver for the whole 10 days - Puuje - he’s so helpful and takes much initiative to step up whenever needed. He even helped those in other tour groups too! He participated in all the activities together with us instead of resting like what most drivers would do. It made the whole journey even more memorable and fun. A genuinely kind and warm gentleman. Really an MVP. He is a gem that deserves much praise 🫶 Everything was arranged well and we were pleased with the level of service rendered. We highly recommend them and look no further if you ever want to visit Mongolia.

Summary: We had an amazing tour. Enza was very responsive and very helpful in customising a private tour for our 25th anniversary. Our guide, Amy, was AMAZING. Spending 6 days with her was a joy and she taught us so much about Mongolia. Our driver was Gaana and he was amazing too. The terrain is challenging and he was a true professional and handled it as such. Mongolia was a blast!!! Beautiful landscape, amazing animals and really friendly people. One of our favorite trips. We would highly recommend Enza and her crew.

Summary: Enza organized an amazing tour for 5 of us in Central Mongolia. We travel quite a lot, including private tours, so I can say that organization of this tour was above and beyond. Firstly, the planning and communication prior to the tour was very convenient and transparent. We were able to make some changes to the standard program. Second, we've got very valuable advices on which places to visit and why. Third, our tour guide Oghi was just a wonderful man; we've spent 6 days with him and he did a great job showing us around his country. We have visited all kinds of different places: steppes, forest mountains, snowy mountains, thermal waters, desert, we lived with a nomad family, we saw wild horses, camels, we visited small villages and the capital, we also saw 500 local music videos in his car while driving long roads. I highly recommend Enza Tours, they've done a wonderful job and I would definitely approach them for my next tour in Mongolia, there are so many places yet to see.
