I can’t recommend this tour package enough. I used SoulTrips to travel to Bhutan from Singapore and it couldn’t have been smoother. I’ll break up this review in two parts: the preparation and the tour. Preparation: I originally went with a tour company called “Druk Asia” who I believe outsourced to SoulTrips. From the (email) response time to figuring out the flights, visa, and any dietary necessities, SoulTrips made sure to take care of all the details. They were responsive, friendly, and made sure that I would have all the information needed before going to Bhutan Tour.
We spent a week with Kuenga and it was a great trip. He is a great guide with a deep knowledge of the local culture, traditions, history and architecture. Very dedicated and hardworking always giving his best to make people feel at home. Beautiful country, amazing people.
My mum and I visited Bhutan for a week, from 12th to 18th September, with Soul Trips, and I was thoroughly impressed with the level of service at every point of contact. Sonam was our first point of contact, and the entire process—from booking the trip to arranging our preferred accommodation—was seamless. Every question I had was answered within the day, which provided a great sense of assurance about traveling to a place so different from home.
Had a great time in Bhutan under the 7 days itinerary which also offers great flexibility in terms of planning it around activities you want to do or see. Recommend to get Kado as your guide and Kelzang as your driver as the two are really passionate and hospitable folks who will definitely make your time in Bhutan a memorable one!
Bhutanese are one of the kindest , respectful , simplest and meekest people I’ve met. Definitely witnessed their sense of compassion to all beings, contentment and joy in the littlest things and their sense of community. I was welcomed with warm smiles & generously spoiled with goodness, genuine care & kindness and utmost service (like royal treatment!) by my guides tashi & karma - from soul trips co / druk asia and the ones from the hotels I’ve stayed in and every friendly face I met on the trip. I was traveling solo but they made me feel right at home, like I belong. Their pursuit of inner peace, mindfulness, and compassion is a way of life and not just a religious practice and it radiates. It is the land of happiness, indeed. this was a trip for the soul, and my soul was happy indeed.
I have always wanted to travel to Bhutan and my only regret was I did not choose to go for the longer tour package. Ugyen Dema was such a great help for all my enquiries, to the purchase of the package and even the after service support. I was able to customise the itinerary to my liking and travel on my own so that I did not have to compromise it to fit other travelers. My guide, Tashi Chedon, and driver, Dawa Gyeltshen, were just as amazing. They welcomed me once I landed and made sure I was comfortable throughout the trip. Both made me feel so welcome that I did not worry about travelling solo. Highly recommend everyone to visit Bhutan with Druk Asia/Soul Trips. Nothing to fear, even as a solo female traveler, as you can request for a female guide. Looking forward to visiting Bhutan again and definitely will be going longer this time.
Everything worked smoothly starting with the booking process until the final drop off at the airport. Ugyen was very helpful during the booking process. My guide and driver (Doji and Kado) made the week in Bhutan a perfect experience. Everything was well organised. I can't think of anything to complain about.
We had a very enjoyable and memorable trip. It was a hassle free experience to arrange the itinerary with the tour office. Communication was prompt, informative and accurate through email. Many thanks to both our local guide Tashi Tshering and driver Sonam Zangpo for creating such wonderful experiences. They are warm, friendly and knowledgeable and did their best to accommodate our requests regarding meals and activities on the trip. We got a glimpse of the culture and way of life in bhutan through them in the short 1 week we spent together. Highest praise for their passion, excellence and professionalism!
I had the pleasure of working with an incredibly experienced agent, Sonam Younten, during the itinerary planning and administration of our trip. The entire journey was thoughtfully customized to meet our needs, accommodating our varying fitness levels and dietary restrictions. Communication was clear and timely, with regular updates leading up to our departure. Special thanks go to our guide, Dorji Wangchuk, and our driver, Sonam. Dorji's insightful explanations at each site, combined with his rich knowledge of local culture, truly immersed us in the experience. His friendly and approachable demeanor added a relaxing and enjoyable atmosphere to our trip.
We had a great trip in Bhutan. Druk Asia did a wonderful job in organising everything. The service by our guide and driver were excellent.
Words can’t explain the beauty of Bhutan and its people. Our guides were awesome with their professionalism, patience and attentiveness to our needs. We were well taken care of and felt like we were part of the Bhutan family. The hotel staff were polite and friendly making our stay a pleasurable and comfortable one. I teared on the last day as the week flew by in the blink of an eye. Brief as it may, the heart warming experience has changed my perspective of life. I see beauty in simplicity and simplicity in itself is deep with meanings. Special mention to our guides Dorji Tshering and Tshering Wang Chuk who put in their best efforts to ensure we had a wonderful and safe experience in Bhutan. I give them a 6 out of 5 stars
Many thanks to Kinley and Lhakpa for making our trip so fun and memorable. Especially appreciate their friendships and thoughtfulness. The visit to the Hermitage at Punakha and the trek up to Bumdra are particularly enjoyable.
My friend and I had a wonderful time in Bhutan. It is such a beautiful country. Our guide, Kuenga Norbu, was extremely professional and knowledgeable about Bhutan. He went the extra mile to take us to local food places instead of dining in hotels. He also customized our itinerary to include scenic spots that we particularly enjoyed. Our driver, Lhapka, was very skilled and ensured our safety on the winding and narrow roads. He was also very friendly and easily engaged us in conversation. We had an enjoyable experience because of our guide and driver. Would strongly recommend!
Bhutan has always been on my husband & I, our travelling bucket list. In late Dec 2023, we decided to confirm for our trip to Bhutan with Druk Asia SoulTrips after researching through, with a few travel agencies. Mr. Sangay from Druk Asia SoulTrips has been very helpful and patient with our queries from the beginning, before we made our decision, all the way until our trip.
I had a very wonderful trip 10 days trip in Bhutan with professional and attentive guide Kuenga Norbu and experienced driver Tsring (long life). They will go all the way to fulfil my additional needs such as food and itinerary which make the trip very flexible that suit my solo trip purpose. Gangtey and Ura Valley are top of my list for best scenic picture perfect places in Bhutan! Tashi Daley la.
They were attentive to our needs, accommodative to our requests like change of itineraries, food options, always opened and closed the car doors for us even though we told them we can do it ourselves. They are jovial and caring. Both of them accompanied us every steps, never once told us to explore the place ourselves and wait for us at the exit. Tashi has been patience with the historical explanation. They often offered to take photos for us and find the best spots even we didn't request for it. When we were trekking to the Tiger's Nest Monastery, they carried our bags and bottles of water, extended their hands/shoulders/arms for us to keep our balance as the routes are rocky and muddy.
The 10 days 9 nights were meticulously coordinated and I was greeted at the airport by Dorji, my guide and Thinley my driver. Both became my wonderful travelling companion, engaging me with fascinating landscapes, local culture, religion and food. They ensure that I was well taken care of throughout the trip. Much appreciation to Dorji who share his immense Bhutanese knowledge with me throughout the trip and also ensure my well being and safety especially on the hike to Paro Taktsang. Thanks to Thinley for the safe drive throughout the trip, on the mountain roads and passes.
Bhutan is a true beauty, a paradise and the only country I visited that is carbon negative. A country as beautiful and clean as bhutan is reflected to its people. We had an excellent experience with our tour guide and driver. They were incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, and accommodating throughout the trip. The guide provided insightful commentary on all the sites we visited, and the driver ensured a smooth and safe journey. Their professionalism and attention to detail made our tour enjoyable and memorable. Highly recommended!
Fantastic tour with excellent guide Sonam & driver Dorji. An amazing time traveling all around Bhutan, visiting beautiful temples, and experiencing the local culture. Sonam's knowledge of Buddhist culture and patient explanations allowed me to embrace & understand the country of Bhutan.
Thank you for the warm hospitality from the guide Sonam and driver Passang. Sonam introduced us to the local culture and traditions. He accommodated our requests and planned the itinerary well. Passang was very alert and careful in his driving. He accompanied us for walks at times and made sure we are all following up. Kudos to both!
