Your feedback means the world to us
Our tour guide, Sangay Wangchuk was knowledgeable, friendly, and deeply passionate about Bhutanese culture and history. His insights added so much depth to each location we visited, and he made sure we understood the significance of each place in a way that was engaging and easy to follow. He was always just a call or message away, ready to assist with any queries or requests, which gave us a lot of comfort throughout the trip. Also he entertained us with his beautiful Shero -shayri & hind songs during the long travel.
Every aspect of the tour – from transportation and accommodations to sightseeing and local experiences – was thoughtfully curated. Thanks to the Teem Travel, we could fully immerse ourselves in the beauty and serenity of Bhutan without any logistical stress.
On behalf of our Group of Four, may I thank you, your Guide Kinley Lekpa and Pilot Pratap for taking excellent care of us, right from the moment we landed in Paro Int.

Our family had the most incredible experience in visiting Bhutan and I thank TEEM TRAVEL BHUTAN. I recently had the pleasure of touring Bhutan with Teem Travel, and I must say, it was a truly memorable and seamless experience right from the very beginning (Pick up from Bagdogra Airport), the planning and coordination were handled with professionalism and care, ensuring we had nothing to worry.
