Mongolia Trekking serves NASA Research Team
Team Leader Kerry Ellis:

 
NASA research team  
In November 2001, I served as the Expedition Leader for a NASA-sponsored campaign to observe the Leonid meteor shower from the Astronomical Observatory of the Mongolian Academy of Sciences located outside the Nation’s Capitol, Ulaan Bator. The success of this campaign relied, in part, on being able to acquire the necessary materials and supplies from local businesses as well as being able to deploy our equipment - on short notice - to locations other than the Observatory in the event of poor weather.
Fortunately, Mongolia Trekking Co. Ltd. was able to provide my team with the needed specialized in-country support and the campaign was unqualified scientific success. Timur, Mongolia Trekking’s General Manager, and his staff delivered excellent service providing us with transportation (at all hours), leisure information, guided tours and even served as the team’s interpreter.
As our interpreter, I was very pleased to find that Timur had an excellent command of the English language, which greatly simplified our business and recreational activities. If you are planning a visit to Mongolia and are seeking an honest and reliable Tour Company, I would highly recommend that you consider retaining the services of Mongol Trekking.
Good Luck in your Travels, Kerry J. Ellis Western Ontario. Canada

Mongolia Trekking Company is proud to be associated with the NASA Astronomy Research Team. They and their research were so unusual thus we had to think about something different in our services. We tried to give well customized and special care to the scientists. Sudden changes in weather, cold temperatures and clouds were really something to worry about. Only a little cloud or stronger breeze could easily ruin so much international scientific effort. Anyway, thankfully, the weather has proved again Mongolia's famous subtitle - "The Land of Eternal Blue Sky" • TOP • BACK
