Our Team

As managing director, I create itineraries, handle emails, and guide a few tours during the short but intense travel season (June–Sep). In 1995, as a university student, I worked as an interpreter for a Kiwi adventurer searching for a yeti in Western Mongolia. After a month of mountain travel on foot and horseback, I realized my true passion—travel. Even after 20 years, each new itinerary excites me, and I remind myself: “You still have a reason to stay in tourism.

Traveling in nature is my greatest passion, a love I inherited from my grandfather—a ranger who took me along on his duties in the forests of northeastern Mongolia when I was a child. I truly believe that exploring pristine landscapes, learning about one's history and culture, and experiencing traditions are essential for future generations. I hope children embrace the thrill of adventure, overcome challenges, forge true friendships, and create unforgettable memories along the way.

I grew up in the Mongolian countryside, riding horses and herding cattle. Every trek and tour brings back those cherished memories. Guiding is a refreshing break from my main job—teaching at a university in Ulaanbaatar. It lets me meet people from diverse cultures, share my homeland, and explore Mongolia’s stunning landscapes. After 10+ years, guiding has become a lifelong adventure—challenging, rewarding, and impossible to resist.

 Tsenge is a Russian- and English-speaking guide with a keen interest in wild animals, birds, and fish. There is no point in asking him which part of Mongolia he likes the most. He just loves being out there and on the move, a need he satisfies during the long off-season. Within Mongolia Trekking, Tsenge is responsible for coordinating tours and expeditions, although he sometimes leads groups to remote parts of the Gobi Desert or the Altai Mountain range in far western Mongolia.
