14-dages Bhutan-kulturtur med 2-dages vandring i Bumthang-dalen
Beskrivelse
Rejs til fem vestlige distrikter i Bhutan og dyk ned for at opdage, hvorfor dette lille kongerige valgte at forblive afsondret i århundreder. Besøg storslåede fæstninger og templer med bakketoppe og strategiske placeringer på baggrund af skyhøje bjerge prydet med sne og skove. Forundre det uberørte miljø og ældgamle traditioner i det magiske kongerige Bhutan, der er så velbevaret, at omverdenen kalder det 'Last Shangri-La'. Denne tur på 14 dage og 13 nætter inkluderer en 2-dages vandring i det centrale Bhutan-distrikt i Bumthang kendt som 'Bhutans kulturelle hjerteland'. Den 2-dages vandretur er ret let, der tager dig gennem rige skove, smukke dale og langs krystalklare floder fyldt med ørreder. Der er masser af gamle templer at besøge og passere gennem en række typiske bhutanske landsbyer, hvor du kan stoppe og hvile, hvilket giver dig mulighed for at forstå Bhutans kultur og traditioner.

Vigtig information
- Velegnet til alle fitnessniveauer
- Denne tur kan tilpasses og køres på privat basis kun for dig og din gruppe.
- Vi anbefaler stærkt at booke mindst et par måneder før afrejsedatoen, så vi har tid nok til at sikre, at flyene er tilgængelige. Hvis du allerede har flybilletter til og fra Bhutan, kan vi tage imod bookinger op til en uge før afrejsedatoen. For at behandle visum tager det kun 4-5 hverdage.
- Der er kun to flyselskaber, der forbinder Bhutan med omverdenen, og det kan derfor være svært at sikre sig flybilletter, især i højsæsonens måneder. I øjeblikket er Bhutan forbundet med disse byer - Bagdogra, Bangkok, Delhi, Dhaka, Guwahati, Kathmandu, Kolkata, Singapore. Vi anbefaler, at du booker dine internationale fly et par måneder i forvejen, især hvis du planlægger at besøge i højsæsonen månederne marts til maj og september til november. Hvis du har brug for hjælp til at arrangere fly til/fra Bhutan, så lad os det vide meget på forhånd.
- Når du har booket turen, bedes du sende os klare paskopier af alle deltagerne. En biodataside inklusive den maskinlæsbare zone skal ses tydeligt. Pas skal have minimum 6 MÅNEDER gyldighed fra den dag, du rejser fra Bhutan. Du vil måske også tjekke paskravene for dit næste destinationsland efter Bhutan. En kopi af dit e-visum vil blive sendt til dig, når det er godkendt. Det tager kun 4-5 hverdage at få visumgodkendelse, og det er 100 procent garanteret, så længe vi modtager klare paskopier af alle deltagerne. Faktisk visum vil blive stemplet i dit pas ved ankomsten. Send paskopierne til den lokale leverandørs e-mailadresse.
- Deltagere under 18 år skal være ledsaget af mindst én voksen.

Acorn travel did an excellent job planning and executing our 15-day custom vacation in Bhutan. Our guide Pema and driver Gelson were a big part of the enjoyment of the trip and us feeling safe and well-looked after. The accommodations and restaurants chosen for us were authentic and interesting. Bhutan is well worth the trip with its intact culture from hundreds of years ago, natural beauty of mountains and rivers and forests. And very interesting history. You need to prepare to be at high altitudes. We would love to come back again and bring some family or friends.
One of the best tour operators I've ever worked with! From the moment I reached out, communication was incredibly easy and adaptive to my needs. I booked on very short notice, and Bhutan Acorn was able to help me through the process and give me multiple options that fit what I wanted (the itinerary doesn't have to be fixed - just tell them what you're interested in and they'll make it happen!). On the ground, my guide Sonam and driver Jigme were incredible, providing answers to all my questions, adjusting the trip to fit my wants each day, and being great travel companions. The trip itself covered tons of cultural locations and had beautiful hikes nearly every day, which is exactly what I wanted. I chose to take things relatively slow so that I could soak up each location and not feel like we were running from place to place, which I think is the best way to do Bhutan if you have the time. Additionally, since almost everything is included (besides admission fees and tips), I rarely had to think about money throughout the trip, which allowed me to focus on my experience and the beauty of where I was. Overall, absolutely incredible trip, and couldn't recommend booking with Bhutan Acorn enough! If I'm lucky enough to make it back, absolutely will use them again
We couldn't have hoped for a better Bhutan experience! Our guide and driver, Kelzang and Tashi, were great communicators and passed on their knowledge about the culture and history of Bhutan. Bravo Acorn Tours and Travel. I give them my highest recommendations.
We started in Paro, flying in from Kathmandu. We did not realize that you ought to sit on the correct side of the plane to see the Himalayas, a little hiccup we corrected on the way out. We started out in Paro with a substitute guide and driver, but they were both excellent. However, had quite a bit of trouble getting our atm cards to work while shopping in Paro, we should have brought more cash and converted it at the airport. The next day we flew to Bumthang Valley and met up the Llendrup, our guide the new driver. We quickly found out that our guide knew everyone and was constantly on his cellphone updating our arrangements and we think some work for his other clients. At the Jakar Tsechu Festival we found that the activities were there for the locals and they were kind enough to share them with us. This was true for all of our trip, we did not see any "staged" performances just for the tourist trade. Again the guide surpassed our expectations by getting us comfortable seats overlooking the event, VIP seating for sure, with the head monk (the guides uncle), the governor and head judge of the area making room for us. They fed us lunch, butter tea and coffee as well. Over the next few days we drove over bumpy roads and visited more monasteries and museums and of course shopping for local handicrafts. Ask you guide to help identify the local from the imported stuff, but after a few shop you will see the difference. We did get to the main post office in Thimpu? which was excellent if you love stamps. We shifted the trip a bit to try and include things of nature, and this was probably the one big disappointment of the trip, we had hoped to see local birds and animals but had limited success. I think a guide who is focused on nature and knows where to find local species would be needed to make this happen. We did get tired of the buffet breakfast and dinner routine and decided to buy meals ala carte. We did try the hot stone bath and I would take a hard pass on that, the water was not refreshed between customers and I felt quite ill afterwards, the tubs are not large enough for a 6' 2" 240lb man. We did have a nice local meal after and a bit of impromptu karaoke when one of the guide fired up his guitar. My thoughts: 2 temples and 2-3 museums are enough, it gets repetitive after that. More nature would have been great, easy hikes with wildlife were in short supply. The guide could not have been better and the driver was careful and all the mountain roads. I would go back in a minute and use Acorn again. But never through Kathmandu again, the clean air and scenery of Bhutan is sorely missing.
