The basic rule about what can and can't we do in Bhutan

Face masks are no longer required to be worn at any venue or at any time in Bhutan, except in hospitals and health centres. However, travellers can choose to wear face masks at their convenience should they wish. Also, it may be mandated by the government that face mask needs to be worn in the future if the number of COVID-19 cases go up, therefore it is recommended that guest always travel with a face mask in their luggage as a precaution.

On the 24th of June 2022, the National assembly passed the Tourism Levy Bill of 2022. With this new act, the sustainable development fee (SDF) of 65 USD per night has now been increased to 200 USD per night. Along with the increase in the SDF the minimum daily package rate (MDPR) has been removed as well.

17,996+ Satisfied Travelers Reveal How Our Bhutan Travel Packages Provide Unforgettable Cultural Experiences

Was planning a trip to Bhutan and came across an ad in FB by Druk Asia. Emailed them and the staff Ugyen Dema responded almost immediately. She provided all the essential info i was looking for and the booking of air tix and tour were done in an instance. That was how hassel-free the whole process is. Upon arrival at Paro Airport and clearing immigration, I was warmly greeted by my guide - Chencho lham and driver - Chimi. Little did I know that for the next 7 days, i am going to experience an exemplary service by both of them. Being a solo traveler and first time in Bhutan, Chencho first checked for my interests and dietry preference. One thing I love about Drukasia/Soultrips is how flexible the tour can be.

We had an exceptional experience with Druk Asia / Soul Trips for our honeymoon trip to Bhutan. The attention to detail from our liaison Ugyen Dema with the tour arrangements was impressive, especially regarding requests to change up our Bhutan itinerary and dietary requirements. The accommodations in Bhutan organised were also comfortable and offered stunning views of the surrounding landscapes while the hospitality at each hotel was impeccable, and the staff went out of their way to make our stay special. Our superstar tour guide, Tshering Dohji, played an indispensable role in making our trip so memorable. His profound knowledge of Bhutanese culture, history, and religion enriched our experience immensely.

Throughout our sojourn, we found ourselves deeply appreciative of the unwavering commitment exhibited by Sonam Lhendulop A to ensure our comfort, enjoyment, and cultural enrichment. Their demeanor remained consistently gracious, patient, and amiable, fostering an atmosphere of congeniality and mutual respect. Also, utmost admirability to the safe driving of Tschering all throughout the trip of long, winding roads.

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.
