Feedback on Bhutan tour

(Written on 16 Jan, 2023)

At the outset let me thank Mr Shubham Gupta of Ask Adventures for planning and executing the wonderful Bhutan tour . We reached Bagdogra Airport on 22nd Nov 2022. We were offered a grand welcome by M (Read More)r Shubham. On way to Jaigaon we enjoyed the scenic beauty of Bengal. Spent the evening at Jaigaon. 23rd Nov the real tour of Bhutan started. The vehicle ....Toyota Hiace was waiting for us. The tour guide was Mr Kinley..who not only was our guide but thought to be our own family member. He has thorough knowledge of the historical monuments in the Kingdom of Bhutan. During our tour we visited Monasteries , mountains, Palaces and needless to mention " the sacred Tiger Nest. The places we visited were mainly Thimphu, Punakha and Paro. Bhutan is the best place to live with. People are courteous, soft spoken and always willing to help. All the hotels were excellent . The food quality was exceptionally good. We relished the Vegetarian Bhutanese food. We have really enjoyed our 10 days trip to Bhutan planned and executed very well by Mr Shubham Gupta of Ask Adventures. He and his team deserves our best wishes for his future endeavors. Thanks a million. Charudatta Pundlik.
