Druk Path Trek reviews
Read holiday reviews by Mountain Kingdoms travellers.
An unforgettable experience
An unforgettable experience on many levels that exceeded already high expectations. The cultural history is fascinating, monasteries and dzongs providing exquisite settings in which to learn about this unique country. The trek was extraordinary, taking us through forests humming with cicadas, up rivers, along ridges with views of the verdant valleys far below, boulders, lakes, a yak. All enhanced by our truly exceptional guide, Ugyen and his crew. So grateful to have made this trip.
Loved Bhutan
I loved Bhutan - everything about it. Our guide, Ugyen was really excellent. The hotels were all good quality. The trek was good - the views and food were suberb. We enjoyed our second visit to Nepal - the Dwarika's hotel (out of Kathmandu) and our meal at the Dwarika's in Kathmandu on our extension.
Not disappointed!
Bhutan only opened post-covid a week before our trip and we had waited over 2 years to be able to go so our expectations were very high and we were not disappointed. Amazing scenery and sights with the most hospitable people you're ever likely to meet. Our guide was superb and all the camp crew were great. The Druk Path trek may be a short trek but the altitude makes it more challenging as most of it is over 3500m, we were well looked after and the food was amazing on the camp.
Druk Path Trek October 2019
The whole trip was very well organised by Mountain Kingdoms and our guide in Bhutan, Karma, was brilliant - he was incredibly knowledgeable about his country and its culture. He also went out of his way to help me with my interest in birds, going out with me early one morning along the river in Punakha. He made a memorable trip even better.
Druk Path Trek
Wonderful holiday. Mountain Kingdoms were very friendly and relaxed but very professional. Whether in the UK or Nepal and Bhutan everyone went out of their way to be helpful.
Mother & Son Hiking trip - Druk Path Private Itinerary
I don't have the language skills to describe this trip. I have travelled extensively and still, Bhutan was a surprise. Is it the deeply engrained Buddhist culture, the untypical monarchy, the small population wrapped by the mountains, the contract to the surrounding countries? My son had done DofE in his last year at school, enjoyed the walking and we were looking for a trip where the culture would interest both of us with some outdoor challenge before he goes off to university. Mountain Kingdoms listened and put together an ideally tailored trip for us. Lasting memories and a lingering thought provoking experience...this trip was one of the special things in life that money can buy.
Outstanding food on trek
We had a competent and knowledgeable guide whom I could trust, particularly on the trek. The trek food was outstanding.
Druk Path Trek - Bhutan
I enjoyed the whole experience, the detailed knowledge of the guide and his enthusiasm.
Bhutan is Fabulous
Everything went smoothly on the trip as far as we were concerned. The trip leader dealt very well with different walking abilities and different approaches to trekking - some wanting to race and others wanting to walk slowly to appreciate the fabulous scenery. A delay of several hours to the flight from Paro to Kathmandu was turned into an advantage by the trip leader who organised a visit to a wonderful local Dzong under restoration and a weaving shop. Bhutan is fabulous. We cannot imagine anyone not wanting to return.
Druk Path Trek
This trip is about at my limit of endurance/fitness. Nevertheless I enjoyed it very much and have some amazing photographs as a result. The quality of information from MK is very good. There was also quality in the hotels we used, and the staff were excellent. I would particularly like to thank the team supporting us on the trek as they did a magnificent job in managed the very different levels of fitness / walking speeds in the group.
