Amazing trip in Bhutan. Starting off with Bas who put together an itinerary to meet my requirements. My guide Namgay Dorji was fun and informative and I could not have felt more safer on those mountain roads with a driver like Dhanbir. An experience where the memories will stay with me forever. I’ll definitely be

Wow! I had the very best holiday. Thank you enormously. There were pleasant surprises in there and plenty of support. It took my a while to get into the swing of being a traveller again. And I think it would have been difficult to foresee all the adjustments I needed to make. Flight was good,

We visited Bhutan once again with Wind Horse. The trip was excellent and personalized as we travelled further into the Haa valley where we would have gladly stayed longer.

Thank you, Wind Horse, for a great tour through Bhutan. Our guide, Thinley, and our driver, Sonam, were fantastic.

Hi Anand! I hope the tipping issue went ok…if anything, I tipped high…but for great service, so ok with me. The trip went very well, from my perspective. I was so excited to cross that high pass! I don’t know if you heard about the eldest queen mother visit in the monastery. She said it

The mountains, rivers, forests and rice fields are beautiful and all considered to be alive and intelligent in Bhutan culture. The monasteries, Dzongs and markets are fascinating.

They choose the best guides, drivers and hotels for the price point, which is very reasonable given the quality delivered across the board. Expect local hotels with good character.

I have to admit, I am the last person to sign on for a guided tour. I prefer wandering around new places, and discovering what is available. As an introvert, I really don’t like being jammed in vehicles for hours with others – or having to make small talk. However, the only way into Bhutan
