Hi and welcome to Bhutan! I am professional tour guide with many years of guiding experience. I love taking people around and refresh them with it's history. Bhutan has many names, the last Shangri-La, the land of the thunder dragon, southern land of medicinal herbs, the world's happiest country. Bhutan has also become the next place to be if you want to do some soul-searching or stare dramatically into the distance. If the unique culture and interesting history can't do the job for you, Dzongs and amazing scenery can also make for a good background, if that's all you're looking for when travelling. Bhutan remains very much culturally intact and is often considered to be the last stronghold of Vajrayana Buddhism. Bhutanese culture and the architecture that comes with it is simply amazing. The brightly painted dzongs and the red robes of the monks make for a brilliant composition. Bhutan is ridiculously photogenic that you can just close your eyes and point your camera anywhere and still get a good photo. Please contact me if you have specific tour requests, questions, or if you want to customize one of my tours.
