We had a wonderful and magical time in Bhutan. You have an amazing country and we left in awe.
About the trip - we feel privileged to have been amongst the few travellers to have visited Bhutan.
The itinerary was fine, as per what was described in your travel notes. So we were well prepared. We were lucky to have encountered National Day and saw some of the festivities. We also enjoyed the traditional festival (sorry forgot the name for that). I think besides the amazing scenery, the other most interesting aspect of the tour is understanding the culture of Bhutan.
For this, the guide plays a very important role. He/She is almost the only touchpoint we have to understanding the culture better. We felt Kunzang was good with children and willing to be patient with them. Perhaps she could

I must say my friends and I definitely enjoyed your country especially with your very entertaining and energetic tour guide Kuenzang and very able driver Tandin who also turned out to be a great photographer. Being with Kuen & Tan more than doubled tripled or even quadrupled the fun we had. Thimphu was not too exciting for us except for that we got to see and speak with your current King Jigme Khesar Namgyel Wangchuck when he was visiting the stupa built in honor of his grandfather. He actually asked us where we are from, welcomed us to Bhutan then briefly engaged us in a short conversation. Wow, he is so nice & very eloquent!
Punakha had very beautiful sights and the view from our hotel was stupendous. The drives up to Dochula Pass & Chelela Pass had such great views and so was the

Kuzu Zangpola!
I wanted to thank you so much for arranging the most amazing trip of my life! From the bookings and the minute we arrived in Paro, we were treated with warmth and care. Our guide Kuenzang (we nicknamed KZ) and our car pilot Ugyen (nicknamed Champagne lol) were phenomenal. They could not do enough for us and catered to us nonstop. As well, they were fun and had a great sense of humor. We felt like we had been friends forever.
We also got to do and see everything we had read about and wanted. We made a lot of new friends and wanted to stay longer. Will definitely be back again
Bhutan is truly magical and I hope everyone gets the chance to experience this kingdom and the wonderful people as we did.
I've attached a few pics.
Till we meet again.
Thank you,
Cherry

Kuzuzangpo La !
We arrived home on Wednesday night on a delayed flight but that did not bother us at all (flight was delayed from scheduled 7.50am to 12.50pm but we were told the night before).
After arriving at the airport at 11.00am the flight was further delayed till around 2.30pm. This was due to some technical difficulties. Not a bother.
Overall my family of five (wife, 2 grown up daughters and my mother in law) were more than satisfied with all the arrangements for this once in a life time trip to Bhutan.
Hotels
The 3 hotels we stayed in were all local hotels - Namgay Heritage, Hotel Lobesa and Metta Resort & Spa. All 3 hotels were clean, functional, had good to great views (especially Lobesa) and especially friendly and efficient staff. Rooms were good and comfortable. The staff

Kuzuzangpo la !
Thank you. Yes, my family and I had a very enjoyable time in Bhutan. Your country is indeed beautiful. The entire trip was both relaxing as well as exhilarating especially the hike up to Tiger's Nest. We were well taken care of by the guide (Ms Kuenzang Dema) and the driver (Mr Gem Bo). My son and daughter even enjoyed an evening out with the guide at a local cinema in Thimphu watching a Bhutanese movie !
One feedback for consideration on improvement - when final itinerary is shared just before the trip, perhaps to include specific notes on school holidays as we couldn't visit any schools due to the holidays.
I am also attaching a photo that we would like to share.
Once again, thank you so much for making the entire booking process such a good experience.

Hello Sangay!
Thank you for your email, I'm doing well and hope you're too. I had an enjoyable time in Bhutan, my guide (Ms. Kuenzang Dema) was very helpful and took very good care of me during the trip, especially when I was unwell. She also spoke Mandarin, which was helpful. Along the way, the car broke down probably due to the road conditions, and the next day I got a new driver and new car, so thanks very much for that! I do hope that the other driver managed to fix his car, do send my regards to him! I attached a few photos that I took with my phone, and I'm happy to share them (:
Thank you very much for your help too, I do hope to travel to Bhutan again in the future!
Regards,
Vanessa Ko

This was a most excellent tour. I have no complaints whatsoever. I have only good words for this tour. Our guide Ms. Kuenzang is punctual, polite, knowledgeable and respectful. Thanks to her, I learnt a great deal about the history, geography, culture. she attended all my needs. Food, itinerary and rooms were changed to suit my preferences. Meal time changes to my stomach condition. Perfect Guide.
Our driver Mr Karma I was an excellent driver, clean vehicle always, entertaining, Played music of my choice. Drove on very rough road to Gangtey like a Paro very safe driver. I would trust my life and families in his safe hands. Excellent driver.
All hotels were good. My best is hotel Lobesa in Punakha. They went the extra mile to make the guest happy. Manager, staff, food, room and even my sh

Good morning, Sonam.
Thanks for contacting your Bhutan office about providing a cleaning allowance to our driver Tshering for lending my husband his gho. My husband truly enjoyed wearing it and is very grateful for Tshering's kindness that has enabled him to have that experience and memory that he otherwise would have missed.
We are sorry that we didn't realize that we hadn't given our completed comments form to our guide Kuenzang until we were already on our plane to Bangkok. Hopefully you can read the copies that we have attached here.
Thank you and happy New Year!
