Ugyen,
Thank you so much for your email. D and I had an absolutely amazing time in Bhutan. I’ll go ahead and apologize for likely misspelling our guide and driver’s names, but Kins and Sanga were both great. We felt so welcomed as soon as we met them at the airport on the first day. The itinerary that we planned with BGT before the trip was perfect. It allowed us to experience important cultural sites, while leaving time for any requests we had (going to the post office in Thimphu to make custom stamps, stopping at a certain location for more time to explore or look around, needing help looking for a particular painting in Paro, etc.)
The trek itself was incredible. The entire trek support crew (horseman, cook, and helper) were all so nice and helpful, and made the experience that much better. This was the first trek we’ve done, but it definitely won’t be the last.
I would say that before the trip, I had fairly high expectations. But it’s safe to say they were completely blown away. We had such a great time doing the Druk Path Trek and exploring western Bhutan. In the near future we would love to return for either the Jomolhari Trek or a tour focused on central and eastern Bhutan. When we do return, we’ll definitely book through BGT, and hope to have Kins and Sanga as our guide and driver again.
We’re happy to recommend BGT to family, friends, and colleagues, as the trip was such a great experience.
Thank you again for all your help, and I hope to be corresponding about our next trip soon!
Best Regards,
Thomas and Deadre, Missouri, USA
