4-Day Bhutan Tour

I had a wonderful experience booking my Bhutan trip through Madam Kinley. From the very beginning, she was incredibly responsive, answering all my questions quickly and clearly. Once all the details were finalized, she took care of everything, from the visa process to hotel bookings, which gave me complete peace of mind before my trip. Upon arrival, I was pleasantly surprised to find the tour guide already waiting at the airport entrance with a sign bearing my name, a great start to the journey! Since there were allot of tour guides, look out to your name. Everything went smoothly from there. Despite having only a short time in Bhutan, the tour was well-organized and efficient, allowing me to see and experience a lot. A special thanks to the tour guide, who was knowledgeable, providing insightful explanations at every stop. If I have to give feedback, maybe more engaging with customer. Be prepared to learn a lot about Buddhism, particularly Tibetan Buddhism, it adds a meaningful depth to the entire experience. Highly recommended for anyone looking to explore Bhutan with reliable and professional support.

I rarely provide written reviews, however this trip and Thunphel travels certainly deserves one. Like many, I had high expectations for Bhutan and can firmly say Bhutan is an excellent country to visit, however the Thunphel team elevated the experience and made it exceptional. Overall the trip exceeded expectations. Firstly, Kinley's management and expertise made booking the whole trip (visas, itinerary, hotels, etc.) stress free. To add to this, unlike most tour agents I've dealt with in various other countries I've visited, Kinley tailored the itinerary to suit individual preferences & requests. This played a key part in the quality of the overall personal experience whilst exploring Bhutan. On arrival to Paro, you're greeted with Bhutanese hospitality - which is some of the best I've encountered. In addition to this, Yeshi (guide) & Jamba (driver) went above & beyond to ensure the trip was leisurely and enjoyable. The locations visited within the itinerary were picturesque, Bhutan's nature in peak season is scenic to say the least. The food was fresh and in most cases grown nearby, and the level of service in hotels and restaurants was excellent. This along with the rich history & culture observed has put Bhutan in my personal top 3 countries I've visited. The combination of Kinley's expertise as an agent, Yeshi's vast knowledge as a guide, and Jamba's professionalism as a driver, made for a knowledgeable, safe and exceptional trip. Overall, without a doubt the trip was worth every penny. The only regret would be that I hadn't booked a longer stay, I'd advise a minimum of 10 days in order to visit more regions within Bhutan. However, even within the week's stay, the Thunphel team made visiting Bhutan a memorable & fulfilling experience. Looking forward to visiting Eastern Bhutan on a future visit and booking with Thunphel travels again. Tip: If flying via Kathmandu, take left window seats (ideally at the front) heading to Paro. Right window seats when returning to Kathmandu for a view of the Himalayas.

My parents who are older were well taken care of by Kinley and Dorji. They had a great time and my mom had a very memorable birthday trip. Everything was well organized and smooth. Highly recommend.
