Despite our last minute decision to come to Bhutan during an extremely busy period, Zamling Tours
managed to arrange everything for us. After arriving in Bhutan, Dipendra provided lots of small touches
which we really appreciated. In summary, we were very satisfied with the services provided and would
recommend Zamling Tours for anyone coming to Bhutan and would use their services and would use
them again when I return.

It is with this letter that we highly recommend Zamling Tours & Travels and all its employees.
First of all, every request forwarded in advance of our arrival was taken into account in the final
programme received on arrival at Paro airport. During the trip it turned out to be no problem to
make minor changes to the program.On the subject of bird watching, professional expertise was
arranged which gave an extra touch of quality to the programme.

We have to complement Mr.Dipendra Giri on the choice of guide, whose knowledge of country, culture
and people by far exceeded our expectations. Most important thought is his sense of humor and understanding
the needs of his guests, making the perfect match. His language skills are superb. The quality of the driver was
in every respect good. Safe driving and awareness to the comfort of his passengers were his top priorities.
Availability of the car was always good. Coordination between guide and driver was good, showing team work.
Choice of accommodation was good and tasteful, including some very nice hotel of which we want to point
out Dewachen Hotel as ‘one-in-a-million’. General Service was also good and all special wishes were granted.
Therefore we highly recommend Zamling Tours & Travels to any traveler looking for a high level of comfort
and quality.

Dear Sir/Madam,
I currently just finished my visit to Bhutan in May through your agency. I had a great time in Bhutan and I would
like to say a big thank you to you! I would also like to express my appreciation to the guide Ugyen Dorji and the
driver Ajit. Unfortunately I didn’t say a proper thank you to Ugyen Dorji. I am wondering whether I could get contact
details of Ugyen Dorji (either phone number or email address) from you.

Many thanks!

Cheers

Bhutan is a charming and magic place with one foot in the past and one in the future.
Bhutan holds many interesting surprises and a visit to the country is something you must have done.
Traveling is very easy because almost everybody speaks English, there are western style hotels and
food throughout the country.

It’s very nice to combine culture and trekking. But also to do just one of them is ok. Bhutan is a country
where Buddhism is a way of living. These you can see in the people’s normal live the myths and legends,
but also in the active temples, monasteries and Dzongs.

We really felt welcome in this country, due to the kind and open people. A good holiday isn’t possible
without a good preparation and for that we have to thank Zamling Tours & Travels. Due to their flexibility
to change our trip we have seen everything we wanted and even more.

This is a recommendation for the Jumolhari Trek from Stephanie Rutgers and Sarah Olson organized by
Zamling Tours & Travels. It was an amazing adventure from beginning to end. Sonam was the best guide
anyone could ask for. We felt completely taken care of and spoiled with his guidance and his staff
(Dorji, Chimmi, Phurba and Kuenza). His knowledge of the country, Buddhism, the mountains, etc.
was excellent. We felt fortunate to have Penjor, a monk, driving us and giving us wonderful detail about
Buddhism. Before the trip, we had never heard of Bhutan. Now that we have visited, we have complete
respect for the country and absolutely enjoyed all aspects of the culture such as visiting the Dzongs and
monasteries, eating the chilies, and even having a traditional dinner at Sonam’s home. We would be happy
to refer other travelers to Zamling Tours and Travel. If anyone would like to email with questions, please
feel free to provide my email address.
I say a very big thank you for such an excellent trip.

Sincerely,

Organized by Zamling Tours & Travels, Thimphu

Bhutan has been an unknown country, especially in Germany we get very few information. We all have been very
impressed by the beautiful landscape and the friendliness of the country’s people. The hotels and the food were
excellent (we would like to point out in particular the Gongkhar Lodge in Bumthang). Our tour guide has taught us
about Bhutanese culture. Our driver brought us always safely and reliably to our destinations. Therefore we can
recommend Zamling Tours & Travels and its complete organization to our total satisfaction.

I stumbled across Zamling Tours & Travels through a Google search looking for organized treks in Bhutan.
I was wary of committing myself to an “unknown” operator of “unknown” quality. I corresponded with Dipendra,the proprietor of Zamling Tours and was impressed by his patience in answering all my questions about travel
services in Bhutan and their services. I have now visited Bhutan through them and I am happy to tell everyone
that my experience with Zamling Tours was a pleasure from start to finish. Dipendra speaks excellent English
and has enormous knowledge about the business in the Himalayas. The equipment, meals and organization
while on trek was of very high standard. I highly recommend everybody about their services who wish to travel to Bhutan.

I had a fantastic trip with Zamling Tours in Bhutan this autumn. Dipendra and his staff were very helpful throughout the trip.We were guided throughout the tour in Bhutan by a very competent English speaking guide. It was great to meet such kind and knowledgeable people; the trip went absolutely smoothly from start to end. The guide gave us a good insight of Buddhism and Bhutanese culture that gave us a better idea of the place and people.

I would highly recommend Zamling Tours for any tours in Bhutan. Their professionalism was outstanding.

Our trip with Zamling Tours last spring was just excellent. The office was very prompt responding to all our queries and
confirming services in so short time. The guide was very knowledgeable and explained everything very well. Everything was
pre-organized for us yet the itinerary remained very flexible. On our wishes, a lot of changes were incorporated in the
programme to better suit our interests. We are extremely happy with the services provided to us in Bhutan; we highly
recommend this agency for a tour in Bhutan.
