Happy trip to Bhutan!ellent

Ravi's Trip to Paro, Bhutan, Eastern Bhutan, Punakha, Thimphu

5 /5

(Written on 30 Nov, 2024)

Me and my wife both senior citizens took the Bhutan trip through Sri Balaji Tours and Travels. Right from the moment we stepped out at Bagdogra airport where a car was waiting to pick us up we didn't (Read More) have to worry about anything. On arrival at Jaigaon Mr Omkar took us thru immigration and checked us in at the hotel in Phuntsholing. Next morning we drove to Thimphu in a comfortable six seater suv with our guide Mr Gem who was indeed a real gem with his knowledge of his country and his helpful nature. During the drive he kept us engaged with his inputs about Bhutan, its culture and people and had ready answers to our queries. On the six day tour our stay was very comfortable in very good hotels and also food was excellent.( Breakfast and dinner being part of the package). During lunch our guide gave us a taste of different Bhutanese food every day. The itinerary was very relaxed, covering all places. In addition our guide also gave us the experience of watching an archery competition and dart throwing too. We also stopped at markets, scenic places and riversides whenever we felt like. Our guide helped us with shopping too. Mr Tenzing was an excellent driver and with him and the guide with us we felt very safe and carefree. In short the entire tour was a breeze with excellent food and very good stay everywhere and the itinerary was very well planned. Thanks to Mr Omkar and RajGupta from pick up at airport at Bagdogra and drop back on the 7th day everything went very well and I would say we got more than what we expected in terms of experience and value for money spent.
