Continuation

“We are travelers with some experience and, so to speak, loyal to our travel agent (personal friend). However, when I told her that I intended to travel to Bhutan, she promptly said that she could organize a trip, however, it would be better for us to look for a specialized operator in this destination as it is full of peculiarities.

My mother, through internet searches and conversations with friends, had already learned about Chörten and had good references. Thus, we had the happy idea of ​​contacting Guilherme. An additional factor was time: from the first contact to the date of shipment, the deadline was less than one month.

The organization of the trip deserves to be highlighted! Everything was organized in a customized way to meet the expectations we had (incidentally, quite different from those of the traditional traveler to these destinations!). It also included an extremely detailed briefing which, at first glance for those who already have some experience in 'different' travel, seemed unnecessary. Big mistake! Subjects such as appropriate clothing, care with food, customs (unique) of the local inhabitants, among other peculiarities, were addressed and that made a total difference for the trip to be a success!

Outsourced services (local operators) are also worthy of an honorable mention! We have already traveled with several renowned operators in the market and, considering the experience gained, I have no doubt in saying that they were the best guides we have ever had in our entire lives!

The destinations themselves are unique experiences that even a vocabulary like Shakespeare's (with its more than 33 words) would be enough to describe them! It is a unique experience that any pretension that anyone has to try to describe it, will do in an incomplete way.

Finally, it is worth mentioning a daily follow-up that was carried out so that last minute “adjustments” could be made, as well as adaptation to expectations.

Anyway, there is no way to fairly express how perfect the trip was, in ALL aspects! Today I remember my mother's words – which still make me shiver with emotion – when, upon returning from visiting the Tiger Nest (Tiger's Nest), with the purest and most genuine expression of happiness, she said: 'Now I can to die…'"
