Gasa Tshachu
EXCELLENTVerified Incredible 7 days in Bhutan We did a 7 day/6 night special interest trekking trip of Bhutan and OMSHA was an exceptional experience. Even before we arrived, the agency made us feel confident that we were in good hands and did not need to worry about a thing. They communicated proactively to file the travel permit on our behalf, ask about our travel preferences and showed a ton of flexibility on the itinerary. Once we got there, our guide Lhazin Dorji and our driver Tashi Jamtsho picked us up without issue despite the flight being delayed, and the next week was an amazing adventure. Our guide, Lhazin Dorji, was extremely knowledgable about the history and religion of Bhutan and took the time to explain not just all the sites but any time we had any questions. He was also very kind and courteous, always making sure everything was sorted out, from hotel room check-ins to serving us meals and even carrying our water up the mountain for the Bumdra trek (to 4000m). He was very easy to talk to and taught us a lot about the spirit of Bhutan. He made sure we never felt rushed even though we saw a lot of fortresses, temples, cultural sites (where we did archery and saw a traditional dance), enjoyed local food, and visited places in and around Paro, Thimphu and Punakha. I'm grateful we had a such a knowledgable and passionate guide for our trip. Our driver Tashi was very capable and made sure we always felt safe even through winding mountain roads. He is a very smooth driver and also went above and beyond telling us about his experiences. He was also extremely kind and was a big part in making sure our trip was amazing. The day long hikes up to the Bumdrak campsite at 4000m and down to Tiger's nest monastery, as well as the Punakha Dzong fortress were the biggest highlights but the rest of the days were also filled with wonder: from seeing the national animal of Bhutan (Takin preserve), the massive Buddha Dordenma statue, the many stupas and temples we had to pleasure of visiting, and learning about the history and life in Bhutan from our guide was a once-in-a-lifetime experience. The hotels were really good as well, with great views, and the hospitality shown by our driver and guide were truly outstanding. A stress-free and extremely well executed trip. When I come back to Bhutan, I'll be going with OMSHA Travel again.Posted onVerified Mesmerizing and Happiness Thank you OMSHA travels for this memorable tour. Thanks Sonam (tour guide) and Nvang (driver) for planning the best itenary for our special occasion. Their arrangements of stay, food, places were excellent. The management was perfect with no single minute to be wasted. Hoping to experience the unexplored part of Bhutan with them again.Posted onVerified Silver jubilee with Team Omsha We "two" celebrated our Silver Jubilee with Team Omsha (#Sonam, #Nawang). They made our "7days & 6 nights" the most memorable experience. The offerings are very competitive, the value they create is priceless. The ambience they created was "personal".Posted onVerified OMSHA is Five Stars We just completed a two week tour with Omsha Travel and couldn’t be happier that this is the agency that we chose. From the very beginning stages of planning this trip with Nawang, to the last day, our trip was excellent. Our driver, Tashi, and guide, Sonom, were the absolute best. They were punctual, thorough in explaining the places we visited and the history of Bhutan plus tons of fun. After two weeks we felt like we were leaving family. I highly recommend Omsha. You won’t be disappointed.Posted onVerified Amazing experience, highly recommend ! Had an 8 day / 7 night solo tour with OMSHA and it was fantastic! The guide (Namgay) and driver (Ngawang) really made me feel like part of the family and I wanted for nothing the entire trip. A big part of why I went to Bhutan was photography, and Namgay was able to take me to some amazing photo spots. Everything in the tour went seamlessly well and they are both wonderful hosts. If you go to Bhutan, I’d highly recommend booking with a smaller agency rather than the larger tour groups, as the experience is much more bespoke and focused on quality. Of these, I highly recommend OMSHA! They have a great personalised focus to whatever your interests are and their staff is exceptional.Posted onVerified OMSHA was the best!!! We had the most fabulous time with our guide Sonam and driver Tashi! We were busy with several experiences every day, and had nice comfortable lodging every night. I loved our opportunities to see how paper is made, rice is roasted, mandelas are drawn with such minute perfect brush strokes, and overall how Bhutanese people live. This trip was full of learning. I especially loved how Gross National Happiness informs all things in Bhutan. I highly recommend OMSHA for travel in Bhutan!Posted onVerified Experiência excelente no Butão Minha viagem pelo Butão superou todas as expectativas, graças ao trabalho excepcional da equipe da Omsha Travel. Desde o planejamento até o fim da viagem, tudo foi executado com perfeição admirável. O roteiro foi muito bem desenhado, com flexibilidade, fluindo de forma natural e sem atropelos. Um ponto positivo foi a qualidade das refeições; todos os locais escolhidos serviram comidas excelentes e a agência atendeu os pedidos específicos que fiz sobre provar pratos típicos do local. Quero destacar o trabalho da dupla que me acompanhou: Lhazin Dorji (Guia): Quando fiz a reserva, expliquei que meu inglês era ruim e eu precisava de um guia que falasse devagar e tivesse paciência. Tudo funcionou perfeitamente e conseguimos nos comunicar muito bem. Lhazin é um profissional fantástico. Suas explicações sobre a cultura, o budismo e a história do país foram profundas e enriquecedoras, transformando cada visita a templos e dzongs em uma verdadeira aula. Sua clareza e bom humor fizeram toda a diferença na minha compreensão sobre o país. Gyelpo Tshering (Motorista): Transmitiu uma segurança incrível em todas as estradas, carro muito confortável e limpo. Além de ser um motorista exemplar, sua gentileza e bom humor também foram constantes durante todo o trajeto. Também me marcou muito o compromisso da agência com o cliente. No meu último dia, tive um problema com a minha passagem de retorno — que eu mesmo havia comprado, sem nenhuma relação com a agência. Mesmo não tendo nenhuma responsabilidade sobre o voo, Lhazin se mobilizou, fazendo contato com a companhia aérea e me ajudando a resolver a situação com total prontidão. Esse tipo de suporte "extra" mostra o caráter e a dedicação deles com quem visita o país. Recomendo a Omsha Travel, o Lhazin e o Gyelpo sem hesitar para qualquer pessoa que queira conhecer o Butão com segurança, conforto e profundidade cultural.Posted onVerified Unforgettable experience Excellent feelings and memories with OMSHA travel and my guide Sonam Dorji, and driver Tashi, all along the tour.
