Demo review: As a first-time visitor to Bhutan I appreciated how much our guide shared about local culture, food and Buddhism. Ema datshi at a farmhouse lunch in Paro and the Dochula pass in the morning mist were special moments.

DG Demo Guest 6 London, United Kingdom

Demo review: Booking was simple over WhatsApp and every question got a quick reply. The road trip from Phuentsholing to Thimphu was comfortable, and the SDF and entry permit process was explained clearly before we left.

DG Demo Guest 5 Siliguri, India

Demo review: We timed our honeymoon with the Paro Tshechu festival. Watching the masked dances inside the dzong courtyard was unforgettable. The hotel in Paro had a beautiful valley view and the team added a small surprise dinner for us.

DG Demo Guest 4 Delhi, India

Demo review: The Druk Path trek was well organised. Tents, meals and ponies were all arranged, and the trek crew looked after us at every camp. Clear skies on the third day gave us amazing views of the Himalayan peaks.

DG Demo Guest 3 Bangalore, India

Demo review: We travelled as a family of four with two young children. The team planned an easy pace with short drives, and our driver was patient and careful on the mountain roads. Punakha Dzong and the suspension bridge were the kids' favourite stops.

DG Demo Guest 2 Mumbai, India

Demo review: Our 6-day trip covering Thimphu, Punakha and Paro was smooth from start to finish. The permits were ready on arrival, the hotels were clean and comfortable, and our guide explained the history of every dzong we visited. The Tiger's Nest hike was the highlight.
