Budget travel to Mongolia

How to spend less budget for a trip from Mumbai, India to Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia

After long time, again I am writing my small article which I kept my mind such a long time.

So today I am gonna share you guys how to spend kinda less money from Mumbai to Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia.

Some of you guys might be want to visit or travel in Mongolia, here is the good tips to spend and keep your mind.

Basically from Mumbai to Ulaanbaatar(capital city of Mongolia) by flight, it takes nearly 1100USD if you check  3 weeks earlier. There is no direct flight from Mumbai to UB.
Either you have to transfer from Mumbai to Hong Kong , from HK to UB, or Mumbai to Incheon(South Korea),  Incheon to UB, or Mumbai to Narita (Japan), Narita to UB or  Mumbai to Beijing (China), Beijing to UB(can go either flight, train, bus) or other SouthEast Asian countries. That would be fun if you plan carefully transit country where you can travel and enjoy! :).

If you really want to travel, should plan as earlier as possible and make plan carefully.
And book your ticket asap, it can save nearly 20-30%  of your budget, so do it earlier(2 or 3 months earlier). But everything's depend on where you transit.
And surf the internet, try to find the cheapest flight but most of the site like cheapflight,com and other sites add their site fee. So here you just pay unintentional cost, try to avoid this kind of site.
Some sites like english.ctrip.com and expedia.com good for cheap flights.
But for me try to book airway company own site. Mostly first I check flight from ctrip.com or tripadvisor site and get to know which transit country suitable for me and get the airline company,like Jet airways, MIAT(Mongolian airline company), Cathay Pacific and KoreanAir and all, then go to the own site and check the departure. Mostly third party sites always add some amounts. So I prefer flight book from own sites.

Alright now if you transit from Beijing to UB, that would be the cheapest flight. If you like more adventure I can recommend to go by bus from Beijing to UB. :)

For me for 2 ways from Bejing to Mumbai, Mumbai to Beijing nearly 600USD but I booked almost 2 months before. And from Beijing to Erlian (Border of China between Mongolia) by bus it takes 180Yuan(Chinese currency Yuan, 26.14USD, 1689Rupees), from Erlian to Zamiin-Uud(Border of Mongolia between China) by bus it takes 30 Yuan(4.35USD,281Rupees), or you can go by jeep or cab. But cost will be increase,
Once you reach Zamiin-Uud( disctrict  of Dornogovi Province in southeastern Mongolia) , congrats now you are in Mongolian territory. From Zamiin-Uud you can go to UB by hard sleeper train, it takes 18000Tuk(Mongolian currency tukrig-7.46USD, 482Rupees), by soft sleeper train takes 22500Tuk(9.32USD,602Rupees).

Totally you can spend 700USD for 2 ways only travel cost. I didn't include any other cost like food, drink...
