Best Tour in Bhutan: 7 nights 8 days Bhutan Tour Review

We had a great time during our trip to Bhutan! We chose Nepal Tour & Trekking Service P. Ltd as our Bhutan Travel agency and were very pleased with the way they handled all aspects of the trip. Before the trip, they responded to many of my emails very quickly. Our tour guide Ringi was friendly and knowledgeable, paying attention to many details that made our trip more enjoyable. He chose an excellent place to eat, and we enjoyed more food in Bhutan than we expected. The hike to the Tiger's Nest was great.

Our guide Ringi and driver tried to make our trip through Bhutan as pleasant as possible. Ringi knew a lot about culture, country and people. Our Drive drove longer distances very carefully and with foresight. We also met the owner, a true gentleman. Thanks, it was a great trip!
