It is me any my husband’s 50th birthday and we wanted to go somewhere not that common and with a teenager and a 10 year old. Bethany took the time to listen to what we wanted to do right from the start. We then had a brochure with detailed planning and description. That was very useful ! Although we were a little unsure and not clear what to expect, Bethany was always there to answer our questions, even, advising us what to pack etc. Knowing that she is always there to keep track of things was reassuring . The day we landed in Bhutan, we were met by our guide, Kuenga. He is very knowledgeable, calm yet fun and full of interesting stories. We felt safe and we just followed his lead and didn’t have to worry anymore. Although we covered the “must see” places, Bethany also covered some not so touristy places, like the farm house and some simple hiking . We could have just taken the easy bus guided routes to these destinations but I am so glad we didn’t. We got to meet the most amazing people that those who follow the normal tourist circuits would not get . The hotels that we got were amazing . Food was amazing! During the whole trip, There was no rush and no stress. It’s been a while that we could sit down and eat a meal slowly as a family, coming from stressful city Singapore. Having been through guided tours in other places, this is definitely different and the best I have experienced. We look forward to another trip with Hinoki soon.
