National Geographic trips with GAdventures seems to be our new choice of travel category for the future. We may even try a Geluxe trip. Bhutan is a beautiful country, certainly not like the rest of Asia. I enjoyed the mix of culture with activity-the hikes/walks were also great. The trip is well organized getting us acclimatized for the big hike at the end.

Fabulous experience in an off-the-beaten-path country, with outstanding variety and a CEO that knocked it out of the park. G Adventures nailed the cultural experience of visiting Bhutan, and expertly curated a one-of-a-kind experience that will provide memories we will cherish for years to come.

Hospitality, Professionalism, and Kindness. Look no further.

My whole team was so adaptable and kind. My guide Spring took me on incredible hiking and cultural journeys with his endless knowledge of history, Buddhism, architecture, animals and nature. Our driver Lahto was amazing at navigating the mountainous roads safely and confidently with added humor. The owner Tsenrig met me for dinner one night because I mentioned I wanted to try a lot of Bhutanese food. All the stops we made were so good and the accommodations were so nice with not a bad meal the whole trip. If you’re still on the fence, get this: I left my coat in a town 2 hours away and got it driven to me in 4 hours later so I didn’t leave without it on my early flight the next morning. Truly not a bad word can be said about this team and their team made my trip one of my favorite traveling experiences I’ve ever had.

This was my first G adventures experience and I was very pleased with the overall trip accept for the stays in India. I would hope that G adventures takes a good look with whom they booking the stays with, i would not book another trip to India if I was to stay in those types of hotels.
