Druk Asia Testimonials and Reviews

I have had a brilliant time in Bhutan thanks largely to our guide Chencho and driver Tsering. The tour has been magical, full of wonderful sights and experiences. The highlights have been Paro Teschu and a visit to the Pema Choling nunnery on an auspicious day. Temples and fortresses have been well explained. I will highly recommend Soul Trips to friends and especially recommend they request Chencho and Tsering as guide and driver.

Ugyen’s dedication to crafting a customized itinerary, even through numerous revisions and requests, was remarkable, matched by her prompt and helpful communication. The accommodations provided surpassed my expectations, offering a high level of comfort and quality. What stood out even more was the exceptional hospitality and service-oriented approach of every hotel staff. The explanations of my tour guide, Dorji, were noticeably more detailed than the other Bhutanese guides that I've passed by. He also had an excellent knack for recommending places that, while I wasn't initially keen, turned out to be pleasant surprises of the trip. His local knowledge and long tenure were invaluable in uncovering hidden gems, particularly on lunch places.

I would like to sincerely commend both my guide, Yeshi, and our driver, also Yeshi, for their outstanding efforts and warm hospitality during my recent trip to Bhutan in April 2025. From the very beginning, they went above and beyond to make our journey truly unforgettable. The hotels we stayed in were above average in quality, offering comfort and a peaceful ambiance. Every request we made was promptly attended to with genuine care. Although it took us a little while to get used to the local cuisine, we eventually grew to love it—every dish was a delightful introduction to Bhutanese flavors, rich in culture and taste.

My trip to Bhutan was exceptional. I'm glad I chose Druk Asia, through its subsidiary Soul Trips, for the entire duration of my stay. From the moment I began contemplating a visit to Bhutan until my departure from Paro Airport, the level of service I received was unparalleled. The hospitality and attention to detail shown by Sangay—who usually handles bookings—my tour guide, Ngawang, and my driver, Sonam, truly raised the bar for how touring should be done. Thank you for making my sojourn a soulful one. Kadrinchey.

I had the pleasure of taking a trip from 6 April to 12 April, and I’m pleased to share that it was an exceptionally well-organized and rewarding experience. Every aspect of the journey—from logistics to local engagement—was thoughtfully planned and smoothly executed. A special mention goes to our tourist guide, Chencho Tshering, whose knowledge, professionalism, and warm demeanor greatly enhanced the trip. His insights added meaningful context to each location we visited, and his attention to detail ensured we felt both informed and comfortable throughout. Equally commendable was Mr. Kumbu, our driver, whose skillful driving and courteous manner provided a strong sense of safety and ease on the road.

A wonderful trip, perfectly organised by the office staff, with a guide and driver who were always available, attentive and ready to satisfy our every request. We couldn't have asked for anything better!

One week since our visit and still dreaming of my time in Bhutan. Thank you Druk Asia and Soul Trips for a truly unforgettable experience. In particular, I would like to express my appreciation to the guides: Tashi Tobgay, Choki Wangchuk and driver Yeshey Tenzin Dorji. I did the "7- Day Essential Bhutan" tour and it was amazing! I invited a friend from the USA and she also had a memorable experience. I learned so much about Bhutan and enriched my knowledge of Buddhism, the local arts and culture. But more importantly, I learned more about my capacity to embrace new challenges such as hiking in high altitudes and tackling Bhutan's longest suspension bridge. Not for the faint-hearted. Tiger's Nest was everything I'd imagined and more.

We had the best travel experience with DrukAsia. Our Bhutan itinerary was planned with great recommendations and communication was responsive and seamless. What amazed us was the professionalism and passion of our guide - Tsering Dorji - he had so much knowledge to share, and enriched our entire Bhutan experience. It will not feel the same without him. Also thank you to our patient and kind driver Tenzin, who safely brought us to each and every attraction. Left our heart in beautiful Bhutan with the people and culture.

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.

Booked my second trip to Bhutan with Druk Asia / Soul Trips. The entire correspondence via email was very smooth. Sangay Dorji was very patient and addressed all queries promptly. Only thing was that the itinerary could have better reflected the terrain of each day’s trek (whether it’s constant steep ascent/descent, or gentle ascent/descent, or relatively flat terrain), because the first day’s hike was tougher and longer than what is shown in the itinerary.

Me & my hubby had a wonderful 6 days holiday in Bhutan last week from 20 April to 26 April 2024 Thanks to our Bhutan tour guide, Tashi & driver, Thinley, for making our holiday a fun one. And for going the extra mile to surprise us with a picnic at Gangtey Nature Trail after our hiking. This is a one in a lifetime experience of having a picnic in a nature park. And during our Tiger's Nest Trek, both of them accompany us, making sure all is fine & telling us to take it slow & easy . And choosing the less difficult routes for us to trek on. Making sure we are fine throughout the trek up.

We embarked on an unforgettable 11-day cultural/ trekking tour through Bhutan, thanks to the invaluable assistance of Druk Asia and SoulTrips. Everything, from beginning to end, was just excellent and exceeded all of our expectations. A big thank you to Ugyen for organising such a wonderful trip.

I had a fabulous trip in Bhutan through Druk Asia. Druk Asia customised my Bhutan trip to be exactly as I wanted it, a mix of culture and heritage, nature and history. Hotels in Bhutan were all incredible (clean,comfortable) and food and service was always great too - everyone goes out of the way to cater to your dietary needs/wants, but I was happy to try local Bhutanese food which was accommodated too.

Our group of 6 Senior Ladies wanted to experience trekking in Bhutan with a 2-day return Bumdra Camp trek as part of the 7-day Bhutan tour. Except for 1 Novice, the rest are seasoned Himalayan trekkers. Indeed, the 7-hour ascent to Bumdra camp at 3800m is the most challenging I have ever done before. It would have been harder if not for the jovial and encouraging Guide Ugyen who cheers us up along the way. Driver Lhendrup also came to help and dish out sweets and packet juice to boost our energy.

Nothing can be better than to be back to the land of the Dragon Thunder, Bhutan. From 18th - 27th April 24' was my 2nd visit to this beautiful place. For these 10days I had another most memorable & amazing days. Being a solo traveller in Bhutan, we will tends to have plenty of concerns and doubts but I can only said with DrukAsia Team. I feel 100% safe & at home. From the frontline where we arranged the itinerary in Bhutan & queries. Ugyen definitely had provided a top notch service.

I've been thinking about visiting Bhutan since I was backpacking in Nepal 20+ years ago. Finally got the chance with a family trip this April made possible (and largely stress-free) by Druk Asia. They responded immediately, took the time to understand our needs and tailored an experience for us quickly. With so many operators to choose from, you want to go with one that has the experience to back it up - that's these guys. You can customize the number of days, specific interests to include, etc.

From my first enquiry to Sangay to waving goodbye to our fantastic Bhutan guide (Kinley) and driver (Nimah) and our amazing camping crew we had a once in a lifetime experience. Would highly recommend Druk Asia if you are planning a trip to Bhutan.

I'd easily recommend them to anyone travelling to Bhutan. Everything was arranged smoothly, communication was excellent and I couldn't have asked for a better companion in my Bhutan guide Tshewang and driver DiChen.

Bhutan has been in my bucket list for a very long time and finally I've managed to put a tick on it. I didn't know what to expect for this trip other than knowing it's the world's first carbon-negative country. Me and my friend depended on the already planned Bhutan itinerary by Soul Trips. The booking was assisted by Singapore team Ms Ugyen Dema of Druk Asia. She has been very responsive and patient to answer all my queries.

From the time we made our enquiry to the time, we were dropped of at the airport...the entire experience was seemless and amazing. The travel agent who helped us, Sonam very very responsive to emails and answering the numerous questions we had.
