Traveler Review

Which Country (Countries) did you visit on this trip?

Bhutan

Your overall comments on the trip and the travel company:

Great trip to a very special country. The people, the culture, the Dzongkha and stupas, the mountains and rivers are amazing. Great five star hotels. The contrast between very old world and modern technology is fun to see. Monks taking selfies with cell phones next to 600 year old stupas. Go before it changes. Nepal was probably like this 70 years ago.

What were the most enjoyable or memorable parts of your trip?

So many memorable things. So many beautiful places. Picnic lunch at a mountain pass overlooking mountains and streams and surrounded by prayer flags. Wonderful people, educated, friendly and most speak English. A great guide and driver team. Amazing roads carved into the mountain sides, some under construction making adventure driving. The famous Tiger's Nest.

If you could take your trip again, what would you do differently?

I would change one thing. I would fly to Bumthang instead of driving. The road is under construction from Thimpu to Bumthang and it is very rough driving. It should be finished by 2019 and then it will be a great drive.
