Beautiful experience with Tales of Bhutan. A lifetime experience and memories of Bhutan with you and your team. I would like to express my sincere gratitude to Sajan Ji and Sita for curating such an extraordinary and unforgettable trip to Bhutan. The journey exceeded all expectations and left us with memories that we will cherish for a lifetime. Your meticulous planning and flawless execution were evident. Right from transportation and accommodations to the thoughtfully designed itinerary everything was handled with great care and professionalism. Experiencing the majestic monasteries, serene valleys, and stunning mountain landscapes was nothing short of magical. Each place had its own charm, and you and Sita ensured we had enough time to fully appreciate and learn the uniqueness of every location. Your deep knowledge, enthusiasm, and genuine warmth made a significant difference in our overall experience. You went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable and welcomed, while also sharing fascinating insights about Bhutan’s culture, history, and traditions. The hospitality we received throughout the journey was exceptional. You made our holiday your holiday and the homely touch we got was exceptional and incredible. The balance between sightseeing, cultural immersion, and moments of quiet reflection made this journey incredibly enriching. Thank you once again for your outstanding efforts and commitment to excellence. We deeply appreciate the care and passion that went into organizing this trip. It has truly been a once-in-a-lifetime experience, and we would be delighted to travel with your company again in the future and highly recommend others to choose you while travelling to Bhutan. Bhutan you have our hearts..💕

Bhutan offered many stories and memories Bhutan is truly a magical place with amazing nature, architecture and history, the people are beautiful and peaceful, and the food is deliciously organic whilst having variety. Sajan from Tales of Bhutan along with our driver Tshering has made the experience particularly memorable, they are super attentive to our needs along the way. Sajan has all the interesting stories and knowledge of his country and places but more importantly the guys are really fun to hang out with (another battle of the pool, archery and carrom please!). Highly recommend Sajan from Tales of Bhutan and Bhutan in general.

Explored Bhutan with the best tour. My wife and I (from Australia) visited Bhutan for 8 days. Sajan took great care of us. He’s full of information, knowledge and energy. We had so much fun explored Bhutan and being silly and spontaneous together. It was like doing a road trip with friends. Thanks Sajan for being awesome, patient and beautiful hearted.

Bountiful Bhutan! Sajan & Hem were really fantastic hosts, methodical & professional whilst friendly and very entertaining. I felt completely safe the whole time and theybhave good modern transportation and drive carefully. I was traveling alone and they were great company and literally took care of everything making sure my trip felt unique but continously enlightening interesting and memorable. They took care of everything from the visa process and on my arrival to the day of departure and accompanied at every turn, step and hike. Id love to return to Bhutan its spectacular and beautiful as its people, sights & spicey food. I'd recommend Sajan & Hem without hesitation!

Influence Makes The Difference Our recent trip to Bhutan was truly exceptional. Mr Sajan from Tales of Bhutan was our guide. When we are still back in our homeland, we texted and he has impressed us with his, meticulous attention and knowledge of Bhutan’s history, and traditions. Even our itinerary was thoughtfully planned as we communicated and we believed that he would allow us to experience the beauty and serenity without any worries. During our trip, Sajan’s engaging story-telling and insightful explanations brought every destination to life. Detailre stories from the majestic monasteries and sacred sites and local villages were explained to us. His warm personality, patience, and genuine enthusiasm made us feel comfortable throughout our journey. Thanks to Sajan for our trip. It was not only well-organized and informative but also deeply meaningful and memorable. We would wholeheartedly recommend Sajan and Tales of Bhutan to anyone seeking an authentic, immersive, and expertly guided experience there.

Trip of a Lifetime! Our Guide Sanjan and Driver Arjun put care, warmth, and attention to us as their guests and brought the enchantment, history, beauty, and cultural richness of Bhutan alive. The landscape is stunning, the temples and monasteries fill one with awe, and we traveled to many places in a new and very comfortable van. Sanjan was a wealth of information and also listened well and made adaptations along the way as needed. If you are looking for hiking beyond the crowds to culturally significant places, Sanjan can also provide options. I will cherish the memories made forever. Thank you!

A Journey Guided by Stillness and Grace - Bhutan, the second home This was my third journey to Bhutan with Tales of Bhutan, and every time, this country touches me in a new way. While planning this trip, I shared a few personal wishes, and the entire journey was beautifully curated around them. I was taken to remote, unexplored monasteries and places that felt deeply spiritual and untouched, far away from the noise of typical tourism. What moved me the most was experiencing Bhutan in its raw, honest form. The people, the culture, and the quiet simplicity of life there left a deep impression on me. Each time I travel with Tales of Bhutan, I feel the experience becoming more thoughtful, more personal, and more aligned with what I truly seek when I travel. This was not just a holiday. It was a soulful experience. Sajan Rai, the owner of Tales of Bhutan, personally looked after every detail and made sure I was comfortable throughout, from carefully chosen hotels to smooth travel arrangements. That kind of care is rare and truly special. Grateful from the bottom of my heart for yet another unforgettable journey. If you are seeking an authentic, deeply personal Bhutan experience, Tales of Bhutan is where it begins.

A Worry-Free, Heartfelt Journey Through Bhutan We spent two wonderful weeks exploring Bhutan with Sajan from Tales of Bhutan — and honestly, we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. From the moment we touched down in Paro, everything just flowed. We didn’t have to think about logistics, timing, or even where to stop for snacks — Sajan had it all covered. He listened to what we wanted before the trip, and somehow managed to strike the perfect balance between adventure and comfort. Whether it was a long hike or a scenic drive, he and his ever-patient driver Arjun made sure we were comfortable, safe, and well taken care of — down to having hot coffee and biscuits ready during our rest stops! What I appreciated most was how personal the experience felt. Sajan was attentive without being intrusive, always checking in but giving us space to enjoy the moment. The planning was super easy too — we did everything over Zoom before the trip, and it felt like he really understood what kind of experience we were after. If you’re thinking about visiting Bhutan, I can’t recommend Sajan and Tales of Bhutan enough. They made what could’ve been a complicated trip feel effortless and deeply memorable.

Amazing Knowledge, Exceptional Service - Sajan from Tales of Bhutan Checked my bucket list to visit Bhutan on my 28th Wedding Anniversary. The trip exceeded my expectations more than 100% with Sajan and Arjun from Tales of Bhutan. From planning via zoom which started more than 6 months ago right to the day we left, both of them made us feel so reluctant to leave for home. Throughout the 14 days, Sajan and Arjun were so attentive to our needs and even accommodated our requests for our food cravings. We enjoyed the itinerary that Sajan put together for us especially the hiking with different terrain and scenery. Sajan is such an experienced guide and so patient to pace us. Arjun is always so sweet, ready with umbrellas, apples and hot flask for our coffee and cookies. His driving is one of the best with minimal discomfort on farm road. Sajan also kindly arranged to rent motorbikes for the boys on the trip to go for a ride, he also rented the traditional costumes for us to experience. Every day, both of them greeted us with the warmest smile and end the day with laughter and stories. I am so grateful that both of them are God-sent. I can confidently say that this is the best guided trip of my life and I've met the best persons who turn friends within a span of 14 days. I will highly recommend Tales of Bhutan to anyone who is planning to visit Bhutan.

Jomolhari Mountain Festival Trek – From USA to Bhutan

If you find yourself smiling with the gentle breezes around you, than you are actually with the nature!

Jomolhari Mountian Festival takes places at the Jomolhari’s base, the highest mountain of Bhutan. It is initiated by the community for the conservation of endangered snow leopard and other rare species of animals like himalayan blue sheep etc. Jomolhari Mountain festival is held around 24th of October and 25th of October every year starting from year 2013. This Jomolhari mountain festival is quite unique than other annual festival. In this festival you could see lot of interesting and unique activities of the locals like, Dances preformed by the students, villagers, horse riding competition, pulling the rope, shot-put competition and gathering of the nomadic people with their yaks and animals. 

Day 01 | Arrival in Paro International Airport – Thimphu excrusion – Paro | Altitude 2200 meters
after the arrival in paro international airport, we have taken them for city sightseeing in Thimphu. In the evening we came head back to Paro. Evening we stroll around the Paro town and checked in to our hotel. 
 
Day 02 | Paro Tigress Nest Hike
We started the hike to Tigress Nest early morning rite after our quick breakfast. It is always good to start early morning hike to tigress nest monastery because you have to bit the strong sun rays, it will be less people and less horses, you have to maintain a very slow walking pace, and you can take lot of beautiful pictures of the Tigress Nest Monastery. If you reach in the morning you can get better space for meditation inside the monastery. We also stopped in the half way cafe on our way back for tea and snacks. Lunch we had in Organic Resturant in Paro. After lunch, we stopped refresh ourselves with the best cozy coffee conner called Champaka cafe in the heart of Paro town. In the late evening we started our drive to reach our first camp site in Gunitsawa. It is just the drive upto the starting point of your trek. Here our trekking crew has well organised our dinner, tea and every thing in detail. 
Day 03 | Gunitsawa – Thangtangka | Overnight Altitude 3500 Meters | 810 Meter Accent and 10 Meter Decent 
after our early breakfast, we started our trek with just our light day pack, like camera, sunglasses, walking stick, bottled drinking water, sun scream, hand gloves, warm woolen hats and warm jackets. The it is mostly a switchback kind of trails following the river in Paro. The clolourful vegitaion in Autumn makes our day quite easier. It is long 8 hours walk to reach Thangtangkha. Here the night is quite cold depending upon the weather, if the sky is clear and if you see the stars than that night is chilly cold, but it is cloudy night than it’s quite better. 
 
Day 04 | Thangtangka – Jangothang | Jomolhari base camp | Altitude 4200 meter
Today with the early breakfast, we started our trek to Jangothang, the Jomolhari base camp, where we could reach for the lunch in the festival venue after 5 hours of walk. It’s quite tiring but because of the the festival it refreshes everything. We could sit around with the locals there in the festival venue and eat with them. We got lot of beautiful portraits of locals with their beautiful costumes. 
Day 05 | Jangothang – Thantangka 
Today we were really blessed with the clear beautiful blue sky which made our day hike worth to Tshophu the twins lakes with the mind blowing views of the Highest mountain of Bhutan. Jomolhari and Jichudarky. We came back for our lunch in the Jomolhari base, Jangothang and retrace way back to Thangtangka again. 
 
Day 06 Thangtangka – Gunitsawa – Uma Paro
Today we had easy descend down for 7 plus hours to reach the end point of the trek. This trek was so much enjoyable and blessed with the perfect weather, we could see the interesting festival called jomolhari mountain festival. 
 
Day 07 | Paro – Bangkok
In the morning after our leisurely breakfast at Uma Paro, we bit farewell to our guest in Paro international airport.
