  • Xanadu Khovsgol Lake-Blue Pearl of Mongolia reviewer 1
    · April 24th, 2019
    THANK YOU XANADU TRAVEL for making our honeymoon first-rate! Doug and I were AMAZED by the whole experience. Julian was INCREDIBLE -- fun and interesting and also VERY PROFESSIONAL (we were SO IMPRESSED the way he took responsibility for us during "wildlife events.") We are going to recommend YOUR TOURS to everyone who asks us about seeing the Mongolia. After seeing some of the chaos in our hotels (other tour companies trying to herd hundreds of people), we were so delighted when Julian whisked us off in a small van with a handful of others THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU! It was the trip of a lifetime! Carla & Doug A, New York, USA
