Hello Ugyen,
We’ve been meaning to drop you a note ever since we returned home but as usual domestic life intrudes, so apologies for the delay.
We just wanted to say how much we really enjoyed our trip. Bhutan is an exceptionally attractive country with an immensely positive vibe. The country and the people were incredibly welcoming, we learned a lot, and we had an exceptionally enjoyable and uplifting experience!
Clearly this couldn’t have happened without the expert, flexible and detailed planning put in by you and your colleagues and you certainly must have listened to our request for sensible acclimatisation before things got a bit challenging!
We must of course give a special mention, in particular, to our guide Tenzin. We are fortunate to be reasonably well travelled and have an appreciation of stresses and responsibilities that can arise from both sides and can say unequivocally that he’s the best guide we have ever had the pleasure of accompanying. He’s a great communicator, immensely knowledgeable, empathetic and definitely has the necessary sense of humour! (Don’t let him get too big headed but he really made the trip for us!)
Our drivers and trekking crews were also excellent. (How they managed to produce the quality of food under the trekking circumstances is amazing!) A special mention should go to Sanga who had some seriously careful driving to do to keep everyone safe after the landslips from a couple of weeks earlier. (We were very fortunate to have excellent weather throughout.)
We would have been delighted to have some Bhutan Green Travel luggage labels to advertise you on the journey instead of Trailfinders but rest assured you’ll get our recommendation whenever the opportunity arises!😊😊
Very best wishes to you and your colleagues and sincere thanks again.
Cheers
Alan & Sue, South Gloucestershire, England
