    I had a wonderful trip in Bhutan!. Unfortunately I got sick the day before our hike to the Bumdra Wilderness Camp- so I missed out on that part. Luckily there is much to see in Bhutan. My guide was personable, knowledgable, and adaptive and helpful when I was sick. There were a couple of logistical issues with the tour company that should have been sorted out before travel.
