A Breathtaking Journey Through Bhutan with an Exceptional Team
-A Breathtaking Journey Through Bhutan with an Exceptional Team-
I recently traveled alone to Bhutan from 2 to 8 March 2025, visiting Paro, Thimphu, and Punakha. The trip was organized by SoulTrips (company of DrukAsia), and I had the pleasure of being guided by Ms Chencho Lham and driven by Mr Thinley Dorji. From start to finish, the experience was seamless, enriching, and beyond my expectations.
# Booking & Communication
The booking process was smooth, and Ugyen Dema from DrukAsia was responsive to all my queries. Even though it's a last minute plan, but Ugyen managed to book and plan the trip. They provided clear details about the itinerary, visa, and travel requirements.
# Itinerary & Arrangements
The itinerary was well-balanced, covering cultural sites like Punakha Dzong, Taksang Tiger Nest, National Memorial Chorten, etc., while allowing time for scenic walks and photography. The accommodations were comfortable and conveniently located. The pacing of the trip was perfect, with enough time to explore each destination without feeling rushed.
# Guide & Driver Review
Guide (Miss Chencho Lham)
- Extremely knowledgeable about Bhutan’s history, culture, and traditions.
- Friendly, patient, and always ready to answer questions.
- Flexible in adjusting the schedule based on my health condition and interests.
- Made sure I was comfortable with the altitude, car speed, and provided useful tips.
Driver (Mr Thinley Dorji)
- Friendly, excellent driving skills, making the winding mountain roads feel safe and smooth.
- The vehicle was clean and comfortable throughout the journey.
- Always courteous, and helpful with luggage and stops.
# Overall Experience & Recommendation
I was sick from the start of the trip - sore throat and common cold symptoms, and Ms Chencho really takes care of me while I'm there. Ms Chencho and Mr Thinley also brought me to Emergency (A&E) hospital in Thimphu. So I had 'unique' experience of visiting hospital and how the medical in Thimphu is. In the end, I still managed to hike to Taksang Tiger Nest in Paro, thanks to their effort in ensuring my well-being.
Bhutan’s natural beauty and rich culture were already amazing, but the professionalism and warmth of SoulTrips, Chencho Lham, and Thinley Dorji made the trip even more special. If you're looking for a well-organized, insightful, and stress-free Bhutan experience, I highly recommend them!
Thanks for the wonderful trip, SoulTrips team!
