The airport is probably the most peaceful and quiet airport I have ever experienced: a parking-lot sized concrete area amidst several mountains full of evergreen trees and a …

Partir do aeroporto de Kathmandu é mais difícil do que chegar nele.
Somos revistados pelo menos umas quatro vezes antes de embarcar.

Toda a logística no Butão tem que ser organizada por agência de lá. A compra da passagem aérea pela única companhia aérea que opera no país (Druk Air), visto de entrada, hospedagem e tudo mais.

We both were suffering with an indigestion occurred since last night, I mean exactly after the mushroom soup we had with the last dinner, which was our first meal in Bhutan.

    Great location in downtown, excellent service, good food! Couldn't ask for better amenities such as hair dryer, hot water, and room wifi. Only downside is that its very noisy at night time.

    The Hotel Riverview is situated at the best point, where the guests may view entire Thimphu city just from the room balcony. At the first moment I entered my room I have noted that the hotel name may be changed as "Thimphu View" Thank you for your excellent honest service.
