Thimphu

The excursion to Tiger's Nest Monastery was an unforgettable experience. The hike was challenging but worth every step. The views from the top were breathtaking, and the sense of peace at the monastery was unlike anything I've felt before. Highly recommend this trip for anyone visiting Thimphu.

Our guide on the cultural tour of Thimphu was incredibly knowledgeable and passionate about Bhutanese history and culture. We visited several important sites, including the imposing Tashichho Dzong and the National Memorial Chorten, each with its own fascinating story. It was a day well spent learning and exploring.

The day trip to the Dochula Pass arranged by the company was spectacular. The 108 chortens against the backdrop of the Himalayas are a sight to behold. We also enjoyed the short hike and the visit to the Druk Wangyal Lhakhang temple. The guide was friendly and offered great insights into the significance of each location.

Exploring the local markets and cuisine in Thimphu was a highlight of our trip. Our guide took us to places we would have never found on our own, from hidden cafes serving delicious Bhutanese dishes to vibrant markets where we could interact with local artisans. It was a fantastic way to immerse ourselves in the local culture.

The river rafting adventure on the Mo Chhu River was exhilarating. The rapids were thrilling but felt safe under the guidance of our experienced instructors. The serene stretches allowed us to take in the stunning natural beauty of the surrounding area. This excursion was a perfect blend of adventure and natural beauty.
