Agency so good that we engaged them for a 2nd trip
This is my 2nd time engaging green clover tour agency for my family trip to Mongolia- because we were very impressed and satisfied with their service after our first trip last year. Similarly as last year, agent, guide, driver were top notch and always available to assist with anything. I have nothing to criticise because they really go above and beyond to ensure your trip goes smoothly and we end up loving Mongolia as much as the locals love their country. Of course we will engage green clover agency for a 3rd trip in the near future and if anybody is considering a trip to Mongolia I highly recommend to go with green clover travel!
Response from the operator: Thank you very much for your wonderful review and for choosing Green Clover Tour Mongolia. We are delighted to hear that your journey exceeded expectations and that Samsar and Gamba helped make your experience comfortable, memorable, and special. Your kind words mean a lot to our entire team. We wish you all the very best and hope to welcome you back to Mongolia again in the future.

Amazing experience with some hiccups.
We were off road about 75% of the time traveling from one tour site to another. My tour changed without consulting me was not okay. I did not get to see the city tour and the turtle rock in Tejishi National Park. I had to remind the tour guide about a Mongolian bbq that was to be prepared by the Nomad family when we spent the night. But over all, it was a great experience to be had.

When Dreams Come True
This was a dream destination trip for me and Tsatral saw it through. We actually did a multi tour including the 10d Northern Trip and visit to the Tsaartan Nomads with Horse trekking, the Gobi 7d tour, the as well as fitted it during Naadam. It was exactly what we wanted. If you asked me the highlights I couldn’t choose. The horse trekking was amazing, these are horse forward people and the horses agile, strong, with a predisposition towards speed: EXACTLY what I wanted as I had taken lessons and put hours and hours into improving my riding skills. The Gobi is vast, vast vistas that is dreamlike and introspective. There’s alot of driving and I mean a lot but the scenery is so beautiful that a person who hates car trips like myself, actually found this a favourite part of the journey. You sit and watch what I termed “Mongolvision” which changed every minute. I can’t explain clearly but I loved it. The tour guides picked for us by Tsatral were amazing, with the two stand outs being Luna and Ola. Without these two powerhouse ladies, our trip would have been lacking. Our divers were expert and amazing with great vehicles. When u say expert I really mean it as most roads are non roads and really off road 4x4 ing. Nadaam was really fun and the tickets Tsatral got us were very good and had good views of the main stage. What can I say except it was another dream come true for me to see The Hu playing as part of the opening ceremonies. For a seamless travel plan trust this company. Communication was amazing, a challenging journey made so so enjoyable and the Horse Nomad family chosen had such great horses. We loved our two lovely young guides. In the Gobi, some of the guesthouses weren’t our favorite as the masses of tourist can be a real turnoff but that is a limitation of the location and available lodging. One suggestion I have is clarify with Tsatral what lodging you prefer. We had wanted our own bathrooms and so went with the suggested Lux tourist accommodation. In Lake Husgal, this meant a house as opposed to a Ger which was so much more “luxurious” to our North American minds than a house. She’s really responsive and will make accommodations to personalize your tour. Finally, one last suggestion for those that seek more than the normal. Through Luna we were introduced to a traditional Mongolian Bow maker. And we had the option to buy a bow to take back with us to Canada. Truly customized tour with dream come true for both my husband and myself
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your kind and generous review — it means a great deal to our whole team and truly motivates us to keep doing what we love! It was a joy having you and your husband with us. We hope Mongolia left you both with unforgettable memories, and we would love to welcome you back one day! Warm regards, The Green Clover Tour Team

Amazing tour in Amazing nice country
My wife and my son choose 10 days Khuvsgul lake tour in the company of Byamba (driver) and Pagma (guide) on the way we pass through the beautiful landscape. This trip whilst a long drive was interspersed with fascinating visits to local people, enjoying a rich cultural experience from some of the kindest and most generous people on the earth. Our guide Pagma was incredibly knowledgeable and so proud of her people. It was a true pleasure to be with this team for the trip, and we all came away refreshed and cleansed of the city’s stresses and strains of life. Thanks a lot, Green Clover Tour. It was an amazing experience.
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your review. I am very happy that you had great experience. It means lot for us.

10 Days Northern Mongolian Khuvsgul Lake & Central Mongolian tour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Ulaanbaatar.
How much does 10 Days Northern Mongolian Khuvsgul Lake & Central Mongolian tour cost?
+
Prices start at $2,706 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Ulaanbaatar usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does 10 Days Northern Mongolian Khuvsgul Lake & Central Mongolian tour take?
+
Plan for about 240 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Ulaanbaatar is not rushed.
Is 10 Days Northern Mongolian Khuvsgul Lake & Central Mongolian tour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 63 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.8/5 across 4 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Ulaanbaatar, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule 10 Days Northern Mongolian Khuvsgul Lake & Central Mongolian tour?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is 10 Days Northern Mongolian Khuvsgul Lake & Central Mongolian tour suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 240-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book 10 Days Northern Mongolian Khuvsgul Lake & Central Mongolian tour?
+
Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Ulaanbaatar can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Ulaanbaatar and add a light layer if any part of the 240-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does 10 Days Northern Mongolian Khuvsgul Lake & Central Mongolian tour start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Ulaanbaatar within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Ulaanbaatar?
+
On Outty we rank every Ulaanbaatar experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include BEST 5* Chinggis Khaan Airport UBN Ulaanbaatar Transfer Taxi 24/7, A day trip to Terelj National Park and Statue of Chinggis Khan, Genghis Khan Statue+Terelj Park+CamelRide+Eagle. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Ulaanbaatar?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Ulaanbaatar?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
