I wanted to take the time to thank you for all the hard work you put in to arrange a magical honeymoon for us. We had a ball. All the transfers worked like clockwork, the hotels were great and the route planning excellent. We really felt we were spoon-fed all the way through.
You guys were absolutely true to your word, the holiday experience we have been waiting for years. Big thanks for arranging our visit to Ruskin Bond's home, you are certainly more than a holiday provider.

Tailor-made North India & Nepal
We have had the most amazing time, great hotels and great experiences. Our drivers and guides have been excellent, in particular Govinder Raj who has been our driver and companion for the last ten days. Govinder has been extremely obliging and has made sure we have been safe and where we should be, on time, with all our belongings and with a stack of goodies and water. He has kept the car immaculate both inside and out, and has driven us with care and skill on all our journeys. Your planning of all the inclusions such are the ceremonies at temples, boat rides and the Everest Flight made the whole trip one never to forget.

When is the best time to visit Bhutan?
The Best time to visit is October to December as the air is clear and fresh with sunny skies. If you're interested in seeing the rare black-necked cranes, we recommend visiting the PhobjikhaValley between late October and mid-February.
January and February are colder, but from then until April the climate remains dry and pleasant and in late spring the famous rhododendrons bloom flood the valleys with colour.
