We had an amazing 8-day trip to the beautiful country of Bhutan! What started as a dream to hike the Tiger’s Nest turned into discovering all the natural wonders of a new country. From the start of planning our trip, Raju welcomed us like family and could not have been more helpful. He was always responsive while we were traveling, and we even had the opportunity to meet him in person! Raju found a way to include everything we wanted to do on the trip, and he surprised us with a cultural show full of Bhutanese dancing!
Heavenly Bhutan, along with guide Ram and Ram Sr., set us up for success on this trip. They helped us acclimate to the altitude and practice short (and still beautiful) hikes before doing Tiger’s Nest on our last day. They introduced us to Bhutanese culture and gave us a window into their lives and insightful Buddhist beliefs. I truly would not have been able to hike Tiger’s nest without guide Ram - he held my hand and gave me an extra push when I needed it (literally!). Plus, he was the best photographer we could have asked for to help us document our trip. He was an incredible guide and both he and Ram Sr. made our trip spectacular. Ram Sr. was a very skilled driver. As someone who gets carsick, I never had a problem with him driving on long, winding roads. We always felt safe and comfortable with him driving the car.
With Raju, guide Ram, and Ram Sr., we know we have made lifelong friends. Thank you for everything!!!
