    · November 26th, 2025
    Tour was absolutely fantastic! We just returned from our 5-Day Cultural Bhutan Tour, and it truly deserves a full 5-star rating. I travelled with my wife, and the entire experience felt perfectly customized for us; we had requested a few changes and the tour operator tailored everything exactly the way we wanted. Our guide was knowledgeable, the driver was polite, and both made the journey smooth and meaningful. The highlight was definitely the hike to Tiger’s Nest Monastery—tiring but magical—and the traditional Hot Stone Bath arranged afterwards was the perfect way to relax, something my wife especially loved. Every hotel had great views, amazing food, and warm Bhutanese hospitality. From exploring ancient dzongs to walking through peaceful local markets, every moment felt special. Overall, the tour exceeded all expectations, and we genuinely appreciate how beautifully it was customized for us. Highly recommended!
