Going from 'Where is Bhutan?' to 'We would love to come back' is tribute to not only the beauty... read more and intrigue of the country but also James and Nicole's obvious passion and expertise in providing a smooth experience. Everything was thought of and clearly communicated in a very timely manner and it was fantastic to be able to support an Australian business that focuses on quality. 100% would recommend to anyone considering exploring Bhutan, a nation which mindfully navigates the effects of modernisation and is a prime example of the possibility of preserving environment and culture.

MarionJames from Bhutan & Beyond accepted my sketchy brief for 'around 10 days in Bhutan' and came up with an itinerary and accommodation that was spot-on. Leading-up to our trip, James... read more provided constant up-dates as flight schedules changed. B&B's Bhutanese partners supplied a brilliant guide and driver. B&B's 'country notes' were invaluable and accurate. Bhutan in late August was lush and green, a little rain, but nothing untoward. Some days we hardly saw another westerner, and on occasion had 5-star accommodation to ourselves (Gantley Lodge is a must). Despite the 'vagaries' inherent with the region, EVERYTHING went like clockwork. I have never travelled with the support of an agent so thorough, communicative and professional. Six stars!

Now Bhutan is my go-to place and for sure again with "Bhutan & Beyond Travel". Thank you very much again.

“We recently returned from a tour of Western and Central Bhutan and it was truly the trip of a lifetime. It’s an extraordinary and magical country; and, the Bhutanese are genuinely kind, thoughtful, humorous and welcoming. We loved everything about Bhutan: its pristine landscapes, stunning architecture, beautiful people and tasty food! We’re so glad we chose Bhutan & Beyond and feel that we couldn’t have been in better hands. Nicola and James’ depth of knowledge, attention to detail and professionalism is really impressive. James was completely committed to ensuring we enjoyed every aspect; as a result the trip not only ran seamlessly, it was an enriching and uplifting experience. Our guides and driver made a wonderful team, took good care of us and were great company.”
