6. CONFERENCE PACKAGE

The WRPTC in collaboration with the local organizers has developed a comprehensive package for our participants, which would include the following:

1.  Accommodation in a first class hotel (Hotel Chinggis Khaan) in Ulaanbaatar for six nights and 7 days.
2.  All breakfasts
3.  Six lunches
4.  Six dinners including the Oenophilous dinner, Gala Dinner and an Official Banquet
5.  Two coffee breaks per day (Monday to Friday)
6.  Airport transportation (Pick-up and dropping)
7.  Social activities and Day-tour (Gir village, Nadam-Mini Mongolian National Festival etc.)

The cost of this entire package would be US$ 740.00 per person (with single accommodation). If you would like to share your room with some one (choosing a room partner is the responsibility of the participants. It is not the responsibility of the organisers), that is two people staying in one room; the entire package would cost US$ 590.00 per person. In this case both persons are entitled to all the above listed facilities for a combined lump-sum of US$ 1180.00.

They will strive hard to accommodate all participants in hotel Chinggis Khaan. It may be noted that the hotel rooms are limited and will be allocated to participants on a first come first serve basis. It is therefore important to register early and make the lump-sum payment early. In order to plan our activities well and make them cost-effective, all participants who intend to attend the conference will be required to pay the entire package amount well in advance, but definitely before 5 May 2007.

Please note that the lump-sum includes six nights stay in Hotel Chinggis Khaan, starting 2nd September (Sunday) to 7th September (Friday). In order to maximize the benefits of this lump-sum offer, you should reach Ulaanbaatar on 2nd September (Sunday) and depart at any time on 8th September 2007 (Saturday). The checkout time is 12:00 noon of Saturday. But the hotel has agreed to allow late checkout on Saturday depending on your flight schedule. The conference ends at noon time of Friday (7th September). In this case you will have some more time to relax with friends and enjoy the sights and sounds of Ulaanbaatar on Friday afternoon and evening before leaving for your homes on Saturday.

 

7. Others

We would like to inform you that September is the peak time of Mongolian Tourist Season. In order to avoid last minute disappointment, I would urge you to book your flights and pay your lump-sum as early as possible. The best way to reach Ulaanbaatar is to first reach Seoul / Beijing / Moscow / Berlin / or Tokyo and then take the connecting flight (Mongolian airline or Korean Airline or Aerofloat) to Ulaanbaatar . If you need any assistance in this regard, you may contact our Official Travel Agent in Mongolia, AIR TRANS at the following e-mail address:
