Traveled with Soul Trips in Dec 23 and Jan 24. It was a unique and an experience like no other. The nature, the history and the culture as well as the food and the people have carved a permanent memory in me. The scenery - basically untouched by globalisation and modernisation. Our guide Sonam and our driver Tobgay were perfect! Initially I was worried about traveling with strangers on the trip but within a day, I was relaxed and we had a lot of fun.

I travelled to Bhutan with my mum for 7 days. It really was an amazing trip, we had a wonderful time exploring Bhutan. The trip was very well planned and everything went smoothly, allowing us to pack lots into the relatively short amount of time.

I had always dreamt of visiting Bhutan with limited knowledge about the country. Fortunately, I came across Soultrips, a private tour service for Bhutan, and decided to inquire. Sangay, the Travel Specialist, promptly responded, and after discussions with my family, we chose Bhutan for our year-end trip. We opted for the 10-day tour, and I entrusted all arrangements to Sangay, who proved to be highly responsive and helpful throughout. He even checked in during our trip to ensure everything was going well, showing a high level of customer service. Upon arrival, our guide, Sonam, and driver, Kinzang, welcomed us. Sonam impressed us with his knowledge, friendliness, and keen observations. He took care of us, arranged authentic Bhutanese meals, and shared detailed insights about the country. Kinzang, the driver, ensured a safe and comfortable journey. We thoroughly enjoyed Bhutanese cuisine, thanks to Sonam's recommendations, and appreciated the quality of the hotels in Bhutan with their traditional settings and excellent service. Bhutan left a deep impression on us with its amazing landscapes, nature preservation efforts, and the harmonious coexistence of people and animals.

My recent trip to Bhutan with Soul Trips was undoubtedly an expensive venture, considering the daily spend, Bhutan visa fees, and airfare. It is not possible to visit this country unescorted and there has to be a guide and a driver assigned. (Even if you are 1 person) Booking and paperwork was settled very quickly by Sangay. It was fuss-free and he responded to our queries promptly. The premium price tag was justified by the exceptional service and experiences provided by the company. One of the standout aspects of our trip was the excellent Bhutanese guide arranged by Soul Trips. Suraj, our guide stood out for his attentiveness and proficiency in English. He not only efficiently managed the standardized itinerary, which seemed common among various travel companies but also enriched our journey with stories about the places we visited. Perhaps it was winter, but some evenings concluded as early as 5 pm. There is a standardized dinner time of 7-9 pm as well. Instead of dropping us back at the hotel directly, our guide took time to show us around town showed us less touristy areas to shop at before dinner.

Super efficient team on the ground in Singapore, particularly Ugyen Dema who assisted with my booking. Did a private 7D/6N tour in Bhutan. My Bhutan guide, Chencho Lham and driver Thinley Dorji were there to welcome me at Paro Airport. Bhutan is simply magic but what makes it memorable is definitely the people. Chencho came across as very informative, smart, patient and great fun to be with.

My trip was 7 days (includes 2 days for arrival and departure). Though the trip was short, i felt that i have experienced quite abit as Bhutan is really different frm any other country that I have visited. The warmth and hospitality of my guide Yeshay Dema and driver Dechen also makes a difference! They really took good care of me as a solo female traveller in Bhutan, ensuring both my safety and comfort.

It was an amazing trip to Bhutan! Our tour specialist Mr. Sangay Dorji from SoulTrips was taking care the whole itinerary for us and went out of his way to ensure we had a smooth and pleasant journey. Our Bhutan tour guide Mr. Kinzang Cheku and driver Mr Sigay were very caring and attentive to our needs to make us feel safe and joy during the whole journey. Kinzang is so knowledgeable, he shared a lot of legends and interesting things about his country cultures with us. Thank you for taking good care of us (especially the hike to the Tiger Nest monastery) and giving us the incredible hospitality. Bhutan was one of the most beautiful places and beautiful people on earth!

Service was great throughout my trip. First, shout out to Sonam Younten for replying promptly to my queries. This was the easiest trip to plan. I just send email to Sonam, and voila, everything is arranged for me. Thanks Sonam for your kind assistance. Second, thanks to Ngawang, who drives smoothly, and made the long and difficult drives safe. I’m glad he’s not talkative, because I really love some nice and quiet time in the car, and just enjoying everything I see from the backseat window. Lastly, huge thanks to my guide, Chencho Lham, for the company throughout my time in Bhutan. She is very knowledgeable in the history and culture of the country and Buddhism.

Highly recommend Druk Asia / Soul Trips for Bhutan trips. Sangay booked everything for us including the air tickets to Bhutan. He was really efficient and meticulous. The Bhutanese guide ChenCho did everything to make our trip a great one, also taking the best photos/videos for us. Despite the hairpin twists and turns, at all times, we felt safe with the driver Phub. We were expecting 2-3 star hotels as stated on the itinerary. Pleasantly surprised by what we would rate as 4 stars for most nights. The trip was a nice cultural and hiking mix. The picnic in the forest was especially memorial.

When we decided to travel to Bhutan from USA via India, I wrote to a few travel agencies with enquiries. Only Drukasia/Soul Trip's Sangay Dorji replied. Sangay patiently answered all my questions and arranged the Bhutan trip for us. Getting permit from Bhutan immigration was super smooth. Our guide Ugyen Tenzing Soul and driver Kencho were wonderful. Ugyen made sure I get the "right" meals due to my dietary preferences. We had a wonderful experience of Bhutan. The trip was fantastic. I would strongly recommend Soul Trip/Drukasia if you plan to visit the most beautiful, colorful, clean air place, culturally rich, lovely down-to-earth people in the world 🇧🇹 Bhutan, to arrange your trip. Kadinchey. Tashi Delek :-)

Bhutan is one of the world's last unspoilt places. We had a wonderful trip in November with SoulTrips with our excellent guide Suraj and our very able driver Tinla. Both men went out of their way to make our trip memorable. Bhutan is a beautiful country that maintains its traditions and its people are very welcoming. We stayed in very comfortable hotels and guest houses in Bhutan and always enjoyed delicious food. With its traditional buildings and dress code, Bhutan is unique in this world of ever blurring boarders. I highly recommend a trip to Bhutan for something completely different and a wonderful experience. Thank you for such a well organised trip and excellent guide and driver!

I would like to thank DrukAsia/ SoulTrips for an amazing trip in Bhutan. This was by far my most emotional and spiritual trip in Bhutan and I have to extend my gratitude to our guide (Dorji) and our driver (Kinlay) who brought us around and took care of our every needs. There was literally not a single bad part of our trip and we enjoyed every second, every minute of it. This will definitely not be my last trip to Bhutan - and the next time I visit I will for sure go through DrukAsia again.

For years I have dreamed of visiting Bhutan, and when I had the opportunity to do so this year, I decided to hire SoulTrips, which turned out to be a very good decision. Every step along the way during the planning process was very clear and surprisingly easy. From the moment I landed at the airport in Paro I was in good hands. My guide, Kinley, was one of the most knowledgeable, professional, personable, and funny guides I've ever had. When circumstances out of our control required slight modifications to plans, he provided excellent alternatives.

Awesome experience dealing with Druk Asia for our recent trip to Bhutan on Oct 23. Ugyen was very helpful, informative & responsive as we made enquiries from her at the office. Her replies were mostly instant & explained to us patiently & clearly & even helped to see to our request in the last minutes were acceded to. Thank you Ugyen for the excellent service! You are truly an asset to Druk Asia. Having returned from our trip, we are really grateful for the awesome experience. The beautiful country indeed have many beautiful people. Our Guide, Namgyel Thinley & Driver, Phrukpa Tshering were an amazing pair. We were so well taken care of that we really have no worries at all...from our stays at hotels, meals through out, road trips etc were all so well executed & taken care of. Leaving us freed of worries & had peace of mind to enjoy the beautiful sceneries, car drives, photos & videos taking, sharing laughter, informative History of Bhutan throughout the journeys.

Bhutan, in my personal view, a country deep in religion and is culturally rich. It has beautiful landscapes - lush green forests, valleys, mountains and rivers - providing livelihood not just to humans but to vast animals as well. At the same time, I sense that it grapples with the challenges of connecting with the world outside its own while keeping to preserve its own unique cultural values. We spent 2 weeks in Bhutan with our wonderful guide and driver, Sonam Tshering and Tshering Wangchuk. We are very glad to have traveled with both of them. Sonam is knowledgeable, eloquent, expresses himself well and full of humour.

Organising and planning my trip to Bhutan with Mr. Sonam's help was an absolute breeze! Upon arriving at Paro International Airport, I was pleasantly greeted by my guide, Tshewang Dema and driver, Mr Kinga, who accompanied me for the duration of my trip. Mr Kinga ensured our safety and comfort at all times. And Ms Dema was an absolute dream! SoulTrips certainly took time to ensure that I had a guide that was best suited to my needs, and within days, she was more than a guide, she was a travel companion and friend who was showing me her country. From planning my Bhutan itinerary, to adjustments along the way and ensuring that I made the most of this once in a lifetime trip to heaven on Earth, I cannot commend and recommend Mr. Sonam, his team, and SoulTrips enough. Thank you, SoulTrips.

Dealing with Druk Asia has been a pleasure. Our trip plans began in 2019, by 2023 we finally made it to Bhutan. Ugyen at Druk Asia kept in touch with us throughout the Covid pandemic and Bhutan’s closure to outside visitors. Ugyen even changed our itinerary when we were unable to trek as expected (knee surgery).
