My wife and I have returned recently from a 7-day tour of Bhutan and we had a most enjoyable & wonderful experience with all the places that we visited in Thimphu, Punakha, Gangtey, Phobjikha Valley and Paro. We have been to many countries around the world and I will rate Bhutan as one of the safest & most peaceful country to visit. Many thanks to our knowledgeable & efficient tour guide Miss Chencho Lham for bringing us around and providing information & details on the cultural, historical and religious aspects of the country. My wife and I also appreciates that she managed the pace of the tour so that it was just ideal for us as we were not very fit personally and were slightly affected by the high altitude. Miss Chencho also made great efforts to ensure that I was comfortable to do my bird photography while on the white water rafting along the Mo Chuu River as well as at the foothills of the Taksang Trail. Unfortunately at the time of our visit to Phobjikha Valley on 3 November, the black necked cranes had not come over, but we still managed to see two of them (Pema & Karma) at the Crane Center.

Amazing time in Bhutan with help from our local Bhutanese tour guide Ms Tshewang Dema and driver Mr Namgay. Both are very friendly, experienced, and professional. The trip wouldn’t have been so smooth and comfortable without them. The itinerary is thoughtfully designed, and you always have plenty of things to do each day. They provide trip customization to meet your special needs. Tshewang shared interesting and insightful Buddhist stories and philosophies along the way. She had experience hiking with kids below ten-year-old as well as people in their seventies.

Thank you Kinley and Sonam for your constant care and warm hospitality. We really enjoyed ourselves tremendously. Now we know more about the cultures of Bhutan. Will spread our experience to our friends. God bless the country of Bhutan.

I recently had the pleasure of embarking on a 7D tour with Drukasia (Soul Trip), and it was truly an unforgettable journey. From start to finish, the experience was seamlessly organized, allowing us to fully immerse ourselves in the rich beauty and vibrant culture of the region. A special shoutout to our tour guide, Dorji Tshering, who was not only knowledgeable but also incredibly friendly and engaging. His passion for the area/culture shone through every story and insight he shared, making each stop more meaningful and memorable. Our driver, Chimi, was equally commendable; he navigated the roads with impressive skill and safety, ensuring a comfortable and enjoyable ride throughout our adventure.

I just returned from a Druk Asia tour in Bhutan. I was very well taken care of by SONAM CHOKI, who was an excellent and informative guide, and NAMGAY THAYE, our very competent, patient, and friendly driver. Sonam Choki provided a wealth of valuable information about and insights into the history of Bhutan in the context of the region, the political leadership of the country, and Bhutanese cultural values and religious practices. I was fortunate to visit an important Buddhist festival on my first day. Afterwards, I was guided in tours of many memorable dzongs and temples, and I had ample opportunities to appreciate the countryside and mountains.

Kuzuzangpo la! Bhutan has been on my bucket list for a long time, and I’m thrilled to share my experience. Sonam was our first point of contact, and the entire process was seamless. Every question I had was answered promptly, providing a great sense of assurance.

My 8 day trip to Bhutan was a wonderful experience. Soultrips created a great itinerary that made a great introduction to this gorgeous country. My guide Tashi and driver Sonam were the best and definitely went the extra mile to make sure my experience was unforgettable. The highlight of the trip was certainly the last day when Tashi and I trekked to the Tiger’s Nest Monastery. Tashi was encouraging and carried everything for me. The views were beautiful the whole way up. He even suggested and carried a Thangka I had bought earlier in the trip up to the monastery and had it blessed by a priest there. I can’t thank Sonam and Tashi enough for being such wonderful hosts and ambassadors for their awe inspiring country.

I recently returned from an incredible trip to Bhutan organized by Druk Asia, and I couldn't be more thrilled with the experience. Our group of 4 were pleased with how everything was impeccably planned and executed. Our 7D6N itinerary was perfectly balanced, combining cultural experiences, breathtaking hikes, and opportunities to interact with the warm and welcoming locals. The highlight was visiting the iconic Paro Taktsang, which offered stunning views and a sense of tranquility.

Nice place with awesome people! Thanks to the guide, Chencho and driver,Keunga for making our Bhutan trip memorable. They are always very accommodating and cater to our needs. Keunga is so sweet, he even cooks for us in the farmhouse. During the hike to the tiger nest mountain, both Chencho and Keunga were always there to make sure we were safe. Highly recommend Drukair/SoulTrips

Words can’t explain the beauty of Bhutan and its people. Our guides were awesome with their professionalism, patience and attentiveness to our needs. We were well taken care of and felt like we were part of the Bhutan family. The hotel staff were polite and friendly making our stay a pleasurable and comfortable one. I teared on the last day as the week flew by in the blink of an eye. Brief as it may, the heart warming experience has changed my perspective of life. I see beauty in simplicity and simplicity in itself is deep with meanings. Special mention to our guides Dorji Tshering and Tshering Wang Chuk who put in their best efforts to ensure we had a wonderful and safe experience in Bhutan. I give them a 6 out of 5 stars

Everything worked smoothly starting with the booking process until the final drop off at the airport. Ugyen was very helpful during the booking process. My guide and driver (Doji and Kado) made the week in Bhutan a perfect experience. Everything was well organised. I can't think of anything to complain about.

I had the pleasure of working with an incredibly experienced agent, Sonam Younten, during the itinerary planning and administration of our trip. The entire journey was thoughtfully customized to meet our needs, accommodating our varying fitness levels and dietary restrictions. Communication was clear and timely, with regular updates leading up to our departure. Special thanks go to our guide, Dorji Wangchuk, and our driver, Sonam. Dorji's insightful explanations at each site, combined with his rich knowledge of local culture, truly immersed us in the experience. His friendly and approachable demeanor added a relaxing and enjoyable atmosphere to our trip.

Bhutanese are one of the kindest , respectful , simplest and meekest people I’ve met. Definitely witnessed their sense of compassion to all beings, contentment and joy in the littlest things and their sense of community. I was welcomed with warm smiles & generously spoiled with goodness, genuine care & kindness and utmost service (like royal treatment!) by my guides tashi & karma - from soul trips co / druk asia and the ones from the hotels I’ve stayed in and every friendly face I met on the trip. I was traveling solo but they made me feel right at home, like I belong. Their pursuit of inner peace, mindfulness, and compassion is a way of life and not just a religious practice and it radiates. It is the land of happiness, indeed. this was a trip for the soul, and my soul was happy indeed.

Bhutan is a truly beautiful and peaceful country with amazing landscapes and the most friendly and kind people. We had an amazing week-long tour that covered Thimphu, Punakha and Paro, and we witnessed two Tshechu festivals in Thimphu and Gangtey. I don’t even know where to begin as there were so many memorable moments on the trip. Our photography guide Michael Lee was excellent as he had been to Bhutan 9 times before this and planned the itinerary for us. Our local guide Chencho Tsering was also exceptional - he was very knowledgeable about Bhutan’s history, culture and traditions and always so nice and helpful. He took such good care of us and helped me navigate the uneven surfaces and many steps we encountered along the way. Our driver Sigay was so nice too and a very experienced driver since some of the roads were steep and windy. Overall, such a wonderful team whom we were with for the week who made our stay so lovely.

Bhutan has always been on my bucket list and it didn’t disappoint. It is truly a beautiful country, with an amazing culture and lovely, friendly people. We joined Michael Lee’s photography tour and were treated to some heartwarming moments, like a visit to the Sangchhen Dorji Lhuendrup nunnery in Punakha where we got to meet the sweet and friendly nuns. That experience will stay in my heart for a long time. Kudos also to our excellent guide Chencho Tsering and driver Sigay. What I really loved was the flexibility, eg, traveling to more remote and less crowded places, and bringing us to eat where the locals eat, away from the tourist street (the best momos, better than all the fancy ones!). It gave the feeling of a less commercial, more personal tour. Thank you, and we will be back!

I have always wanted to travel to Bhutan and my only regret was I did not choose to go for the longer tour package. Ugyen Dema was such a great help for all my enquiries, to the purchase of the package and even the after service support. I was able to customise the itinerary to my liking and travel on my own so that I did not have to compromise it to fit other travelers. My guide, Tashi Chedon, and driver, Dawa Gyeltshen, were just as amazing. They welcomed me once I landed and made sure I was comfortable throughout the trip. Both made me feel so welcome that I did not worry about travelling solo. Highly recommend everyone to visit Bhutan with Druk Asia/Soul Trips. Nothing to fear, even as a solo female traveler, as you can request for a female guide. Looking forward to visiting Bhutan again and definitely will be going longer this time.

We joined this trip only because it was led by Leica Ambassador Michael Lee. We had traveled with him before during our Silk Road adventure. I was warned that food in Bhutan will be BAD. So I brought along lots of snacks - biscuits, chocolates and bak kwa. We didn't need any. The restaurants that we were brought to by Michael and the local guide Chendo Tshering were excellent. Who says Bhutanese food is bad?? Get a good guide!! That's the crux!!
