./bin/mongo
I don't know the default directory. where might it be?

Late to the party but it could help others : I installed mongodb 3.4.10 for Ubuntu 16.4
I found the mongo file to launch the shell at
/usr/bin/mongo
I found it using the following commands
sudo updatedb
locate -b '\mongo'
Windows: c:\Program Files\MongoDB\Server\3.4.7\bin\mongod
Mac: /usr/local/Cellar/mongodb/3.4.7/bin/mongod
Replacing the 3.4.7 with your version of Mongodb
