    · March 17th, 2025
    This trip was absolutely Incredible! We did the 10 day essence tour with my brother and Bhutan acorn teams made it a seamless and wonderful experience. The preparation and planning of the tour was very clear and detailed, with a very helpful team to support us. Our guide Pema and our driver Sonam were the best duo for this wonderful tour! We discovered all the wonderful treasures of this beautiful country and well preserved culture thanks to them! They made this experience memorable. Always attending to our needs, being able to see six districts in a very carefree manner with such a great driver, and gaining so much wisdom with Pema as our guide. The quality of service in Bhutan was excellent. What a great opportunity to travel, discover a new culture and be able to give back responsibly through the SDF.

    Acorn was great! Our guide, driver, itinerary, hotels, food- all were incredible, and the 6-day trip was unforgettable. I highly recommend Bhutan Acorn and would use their services again.

    What a life-changing, extraordinary tour! I cannot recommend this tour more. The communication with Mr. Karma was excellent from day one, and the tour guides Mr. Tashi and Mr. Nidup were extraordinarily kind and knowledgeable. We just had the best time. We could not have asked for a better tour or experience. And if I were coming to Bhutan I would 100% work with this company again!

    Judith

    Asked on January 12th, 2025

    I want to take my 75 year old father with my husband and I on a trip to Bhutan as a bucket list trip for my dad. I am concerned about him not being able to handle the hiking at elevation but I want him to be able to see some of these sites. Is there options for other transport or is hiking the only way to get to some of these places?

    • Bhutan Acorn Tours & TravelOperator•Written January 2025

      We would be absolutely thrilled to welcome you and your family! It would be our honor to help fulfill your beloved father's bucket list and ensure that this journey becomes an unforgettable experience for all of you. Even if he does not want to do the hiking, you will have a dedicated vehicle throughout the trip so the driver can take him around to enjoy the sceneries while you are hiking. If he is not interested in hiking to the Tiger's Nest, the driver can take him to visit Dzongdrakha Monastery, also known as 'Mini Taktsang' because of its location on a similar cliff but it is easily accessible.
