We’ve just returned from a remarkable 12 days in Bhutan and couldn’t recommend it more highly. This is some feedback from Sophie and me.
The whole thing went brilliantly from start to finish. We have some appreciation for the challenges of operating in developing countries, and so very much respect what went into delivering the outstanding service. We were continually delighted. Our expectations were well and truly exceeded.
The core trekking support team of Sam, Norbu, and Sigay was genuinely outstanding. They worked tirelessly and delivered incredible meals and services for us, always with a bright smile. They were 10/10.
The guide, Sonam, was good - capable, organised, calm and helpful. He dealt with the two mini crises extremely well - when one guest had to be evacuated and the 2nd set of ponies was very late. His one area for improvement is his communication. This would be three things: (i) English pronunciation, (ii) in talking to our group, he nearly always directed his gaze and speech to me, the only male in the group, to the exclusion of the women, and (iii) he could be more proactive and forthcoming with information. He will go from 8/10 to 10/10 if he can improve his communication.
There was a small misunderstanding about the tipping. From the WEx materials and common sense, we had assumed the tips would be given at the end of the trip. Sonam asked us for a tip for the first set of horsemen when they finished their work mid-trip, and he indicated that the team tip fund would usually be provided at the start. That didn’t seem consistent with the WEx materials, and we had no way to know how much horsemen should be tipped. Also, the WEx materials say “if” you have a guide or drivers, which is odd given that this trip had both. Our sense from the WEx materials was that there would be two tips: one for the team and one for the guide. We assumed the drivers and horsemen were part of the team. In reality, more than two tips were required, as drivers and horsemen were not considered part of the team. The practice of tipping is foreign to us and sensitive, and WEx would do well to achieve better clarity for all.
The hotels in Paro and Thimpu were both great, and the staff were wonderful.
Thank you again for a truly wonderful adventure. We are already talking about our next one!

I had a wonderful time exploring Lombok and Gili T with a great group of travellers and our fantastic CEO, Hendri.
I only wish I had booked the first week in Bali as well.

It was exhilarating, exhausting, and so educational. I accomplished all of my goals for visiting the islands. I wish I had been in better shape and able to enjoy all of the activities.

As you follow this exhilarating circuit, you’ll be rewarded with sweeping views of ancient ice fields, wildflower-filled meadows, jagged peaks and still alpine lakes. Each day offers a new perspective of the range, while your evenings bring the warmth of welcoming mountain hotels, combined with three unforgettable nights in rustic huts nestled high on the Dachstein Plateau – the perfect mix of comfort and adventure.
Fabulous! We had a small group. Only 24 of us. Everyone was just as invested as we were in our vacation. Everyone got along and our tour manager was the best. Greg was really good. Can't think of any negative. I got so much more out of the Louvre and Versailles with our tour guide. We feel like we really got our money's worth for this trip. It was a trip we had wanted to do for a long time. It was well worth it, exceeded our expectations.

There is more to Brazil than beaches and the Amazon. You don't believe it? Then join us on this 5-day, guided trip and get the chance to explore the Pantanal, which is considered a World Heritage Site by UNESCO. Well, if you take the chance to get to know this breathtaking place, you’ll understand why.
Besides being the largest wetland of the world, it’s home of a diverse flora and fauna. This site offers numerous attractions and unique experiences of contact with nature, thanks to the influence of three important biomes: Amazon, Cerrado and Atlantic Forest. Located in the Brazilian states of Mato Grosso and Mato Grosso do Sul, portions of this natural wonder extend as far as Bolivia and Paraguay.
Spend five days exploring this unique place with us!

Prior to completing our EBC trek we did a lot of research into different companies, and are so happy we decided to go with this tour operator. From first communication with Dil, any questions we had he answered in a timely manner and on meeting him for our pre-trip meeting, he was super friendly, knowledgeable and really cares about his customers.
Our trip was planned very well and there were no hiccups with the logistics. We met our guide Amar Gurung and porter Suk at Lukla and we instantly knew we were in very capable hands. Amar was a great guide, an extremely caring person and had our health and welfare as his top priority. I unfortunately got sick with food poisoning on the 4th day in Namche Bazaar, but knew I was in very safe hands with Amar, and we continued our trek. Suk our porter is amazing and so strong and met us every morning with a smile. We enjoyed getting to know both of them and hearing about their lives, families, traditions etc. We not only left the trek, completing our goal of getting to Everest BC but we made friends for life in Amar and Suk.
I would strongly recommend anybody looking at booking a trek picks this company as nothing was too much trouble for them, everything was arranged well and everybody is super caring and knowledgeable :) Ask for Amar and Suk if you want the best experience!
Thanks so much for looking after us and allowing us explore your beautiful country with you :)
