Good itinerary Bhutan

A shorter version of our popular Gentle Walking Bhutan, perfect if you are short on time or want to combine your holiday with another destination.

Thunder Dragon Trails - Helpful staff

The pre-trip information and advice was excellent and very comprehensive. MK staff were very helpful and answered all our queries. The arrangements worked flawlessly and the people who met us for transfers to and from our flights were most helpful and efficient.

Mount Chomolhari - beautiful trek

This was a beautiful trek. The service and trekking staff were very good with just the right mix of trekking and cultural visits.

Mount Chomolhari - ran like clockwork

All the organisation before and during the holiday that MK could control ran like clockwork. The company always seems to attract like-minded people and our trekking group all got on extremely well and were great company.

Fantastic holiday

Overall a fantastic holiday - good mix of trekking, scenery and culture. We were treated extremely well on trek - food, service - and not having to put up our own tents were all great!

Haa Valley - remote and unspoilt

The Haa valley and its surrounding mountains are tight up against the borders of Sikkim and Tibet, and until relatively recent times was off-limits to foreign visitors. I carried out the reconnaissance trek and can say that not only is the Haa valley as beautiful as any of the better known Bhutan valleys, but the mountains that wrap around it are uninhabited, wild, and make for extremely exciting exploration. You may even bump into Bhutanese smugglers who trade illicitly with their neighbours in Tibet! The scenery is fabulous and the sense of being somewhere untouched by the outside world is magnified as it is so unspoilt.

Ideal group size

The group was small enough to give an intimate view of Bhutan. Our guide and driver were excellent and the choice of areas to visit gave us an insight into both rural and town life in Bhutan. The stay in Gangtey valley was wonderful.

First class organisation

First class organisation and one felt very safe at all times. Excellent guides and fun everyday.

Excellent trip leaders

Both leaders in Burma and Bhutan were excellent. In Burma in particular, the support of a good local guide was essential especially with visits to the various markets and workshops. In Bhutan, Temsing even arranged an archery morning for us which proved to be quite competitive!
