He was always so kind, polite, and in full control of the tour. He gave us a wonderful guide Miss. Meena and an excellent driver Wanchuk. They are so friendly and helpful, well mannered, well disciplined through out the tour. They become the family members of our team. Meena has taken care of our team at every moments specially when we are going to and coming back from Tiger Nest, she was with the slowest walking member of our team, who is coming down. Meena explained the wonders of all the sites we visited in most interesting way. She is extremely knowledgeable about everything of Bhutan. She is a great guide. Wanchuk, is a very cautious and gentle driver and he drove us safely everywhere we went. His driving is so smooth and enjoyable. During his driving he also explain the importance of some sites . He was very punctual regarding timing. Bhutan is indeed a wonderful piece of heaven on earth. The nature, the scenic beauty, the valleys, the hills, the mountains, the spiral roads, the fresh air, the dreamy cool climate makes it a piece of heaven on earth. We all the team members want to visit Bhutan again with Asia Valleys Tours and Travels. Thank you once again for their great Hospitality to Mr Bharat, Miss Meena and driver Wangchuk in Bhutan.
