Dear Michael and Stacy, I am glad that you have had such a wonderful time with Sonam and Dawa and you have returned with lots of happy memories!!
I also like traveling in summer season since everything is so lush and green - and hardly any visitors around. On behalf of Wind Horse family, it was a pleasure organizing the trip for you ☺️
wishing you all the best,

We had a fabulous trip to Bhutan - their traditional life practices are being carefully preserved as they work to modernize the country. Our guide, Tashi, was so knowledgeable about the culture, as well as the geography - taking us on some great off-road adventures (on bike and by foot)! Our drivers were adept at maneuvering the mountain switchbacks, and providing support as we pedaled our way across the passes. When the clouds lifted and we took in the spectacular mountain vistas, it was clear why the Bhutanese are so happy.
Hi Jill,
Thank you for your kind words! It was a pleasure organizing this active and adventurous trip for you. Glad the bikes were large enough:)
On behalf of Wind Horse family, thank you for choosing Bhutan as your destination.
Wishing you all the best,

Thank you Mieke for planning my trip to Bhutan. There was a good mix of culture, nature. hiking and lots of wonderful photo opportunities. The highlight was the hike to the tiger’s nest and the hike and overnight stay at the Dodeydrak monastery. The guides and driver from WindHorse tours were excellent especially Namgyel & Taschi - punctual, professional & helpful. I fell in love with Bhutan and its people. I would definitely go back!
Wow Natalie, thank you for your kind words and sharing those amazing pictures! Glad to know you have had such a good time. If you are ready to return we would love to host you here again :)
Wishing you all the best,

Dear Rob and Karla
Great to hear you have had such a good time. And you have managed to do quite so much of cycling! Thank you for your kind words about Pema, we are indeed lucky to have him on board.
Wangdue Ecolodge comment about no wifi in the room being eco-friendly made me frown - what a silly thing to say :)
It was a pleasure hosting you here. Our best wishes, on behalf of all Wind Horse family,
