Hi Sonam, Thank you for your email. Sorry for the late reply. It was a good trip and we had an enjoyable time. Overall itinerary was not bad - covered the main sights/places that a first time visitor to Bhutan should visit. We particularly enjoyed the nature walk.... Our guide Tshering Pelden was very knowledgeable and very patient. When we didn't understand, she would repeat herself so that we understood. The driver Kuenzang drove with car too. The car was spacious for the 3 of us which is very good. Food-wise it was not bad. However, it would be good if we are given options to try authentic Bhutanese food. Believe what we had most of the time is food modified to western tastes.... When we asked about local Bhutanese food, Tshering did bring us to a local Bhutanese family's house in Paro to have home-cooked Bhutanese food for dinner on one evening. That was a good experience. The worst food experience on the entire trip was our dinner in Meri Puensum Resort in Punakha. Ending the last couple of days of our stay at Metta Resort in Paro was nice - the menu prepared by the owners were good and catered to those who missed Chinese food. Hotels-wise, they were all clean and good with helpful staff. Found the staff in Peaceful Resort in Thimphu and Rincheling Lodge in Bumthang especially nice and helpful. Thank you for making the arrangements for this trip. Regards, Foong Lim
