Booked: Bhutan Expedition - Explore The Land of Thunder Dragon

Our trip was an amazing experience! The vehicle provided (both in India & Bhutan) was super comfortable and well-maintained. Immigration was smooth, thanks to our guide who handled everything so well. Hotel check-ins and meals were hassle-free, with staff being flexible and kind. Our guide made the journey even better by sharing insights about local culture and food. Viacation’s team checked in on us daily and was always available for support—truly commendable!
