George M • 6 days ago

8 days and 7 nights Bhutan Trip Review: Atlas Discovery Tours Route: Bagdogra (Read More)-> Phuentsholing->Thimpu->Punakha->Paro->Bagdogra Package: 3-Star( Breakfast and Dinner) Overall Rating:4.8/5* Overall a very satisfying and well organised trip. What we loved (Pros) -Agency & Coordinator Ms Durga (5/5): AD Tours offered competitive pricing, smooth 30% deposit booking, and excellent daily follow-ups by Ms Durga, our dedicated tour coordinator. Transfers from Bagdogra were prompt and seamless. -Transport (5/5): Clean, well maintained vehicles. Polite, safe drivers who even helped arrange luggage porters at the Phuentsholing border. -Guide & Driver(5/5): Tshodra Wangchuk (Guide) and Tshering Nobru made our trip memorable! Highly knowledgeable about Bhutanese culture and Buddhism, extremely helpful with stairs/bags, and great fun throughout the journey -Hotels & Dining: 1. Hotel Dewaling (Phuentsholing) 2. Punatshangchhu Cottage (Punakha) 3. Gonju Boutique (Paro) ( All excelled in cleanliness, food , hospitality and staff warmth.—5/5 * ) 4. Hotel Oro Villa (Thimpu) ( Fell short of room quality,food and service standards. 3/5 *)
Area for Improvement (Con) 1. Hotel Locations: Days wrapped up around 5:30 PM. (Read More)Apart from Phuentsholing, hotel locations were a not remote (especially Gonju Boutique in Paro) limiting our ability to explore local markets in the evening. 2. Recommendation: AD Tours should offer central/ market- accessible hotel options in Paro and Thimpu for guests who like to explore local markets in the evening.
