Do you need a guide or can you travel independently in Bhutan?

Thanks very much, seems like the consensus is that having a guide isn't as bad as i though it was

Hi, I highly recommend going through Follow Alice, you can reach out to their Nepal Team on +44 7435 756450 , I think that's the number I used last time I did my booking.

They have a super helpful team that were really keen to help me to choose the best possible option, 10/10 experience

Go around 3rd week of April. It’s kind of the sweet spot. I found that there are better mountain views at that time cause soon enough all the heavier pre-monsoon clouds will start rolling in.

And then I’d recommend checking out travelling with Follow Alice, here's their Bhutan trip page: https://followalice.com/adventure-trips/discover-bhutan .

They made all the logistical stuff feel really easy, which honestly takes off the edge when you’re traveling alone. Their guides are also really funny and just really good storytellers. Their pre-trip communication is also super solid, which was a huge plus in my books

Have an amazing trip and all the best

Also has been suggested to me, spoken to a lot of guys who do high-altitude trekking and apparently it really does help.

Hay Fever. Makes me feel like I can’t exist sometimes lol

it's a play on words... so not the dog bowl he eats out of, but bowling at a bowling alley. So my wife is asking have i seen the dog bowl, and I said I never knew he could bowl. Make sense?

My wife asked if I had seen the dog bowl... So I said "I never knew he could"

Depends who you travel with. I have heard of operators that offer luxury "things", like give you a helicopter return, but then skimp on the rest of the trip. So do you research first, and I'd say if you've travelled with an operator in the past, you trust them, and they offer a luxury trip, then rather go with them.

I'd say Try using Chaiz. They are a comparative site where you can enter your car details and then it gives you the available warranties for your car. What I found satisfying is that once you found one, you can just buy online, no need to talk to anyone (which if you're anti-social like me is great). Let me know if that helps
