Kim Shockley review 8 Nov 2018
1. What was the most memorable or exciting part of your vacation?
Tigers Nest hike! Flying into Paro airport and views of Himalayas.2. What tips would you give other travelers booking this vacation?
Bring your own instant coffee to add to Bhutan brew. And powdered creamer. Or enjoy the tea.3. Did you feel that your vacation benefited local people, reduced environmental impacts or supported conservation?
No reduced environmental impact. We did have tea at a home visit and made a small donation.4. Finally, how would you rate your vacation overall?
Great driver and guide. The hotel we were promised via itinerary in Bumthang for four nights was downgraded substantially. The Kichu “Resort” was a huge disappointment. So, I give trip a 3 and a half stars.Read the operator's response here:
While we intend to deliver the itinerary and accommodation as stated however on occasion, particularly at times of increased demand for accommodation it is not possible. We have reviewed our documentation and amended it to more effectively communicate this. In the locations where you have identified your expectations were not met we are investigating the specific properties and reviewing our continued use of them.

Nature Culture and the guide. The views where amazing, the Buddhism was introduced in a very appropriate way and the guide was excellent.2. What tips would you give other travelers booking this vacation?
Be ready for inconvenience while traveling in Bhutan outside Paro and Thimphu area.3. Did you feel that your vacation benefited local people, reduced environmental impacts or supported conservation?
I hope so. I really don't know where the big money went to by the Kingdom. The few things I bought helped those I bought from.4. Finally, how would you rate your vacation overall?
An excellent vacation. The group, the guide, the nature and culture where overwhelming.Holiday Reviews
