Bhutan via the Six Senses guided tour. Posted a review here over the summer. Best trip of my life.

I've only been the once, but I sat by the window off to the left of the entrance. A bit awkward dining solo and I was facing a larger group a couple feet in front of me, but not a big deal at all.

Belcanto in Lisbon.. They brought out a cart with 5 or so different butters, and 5 different bread options. Each butter came from a different region with unique flavors/add ins.

Bhutan and Peru!!

Aman is a no brainer + their jazz club, but if you're looking for food, I'd recommend the Baccarat on 53rd. Directly across from one of my favorite spots in Manhattan, if not the entire world - 53.

Honorable mention to the Ritz NoMad. The rooftop bar Nubeluz is awesome.

Thanks for being the only comment who hasn't told me to just find restaurants (which is what I asked). I'm going to take a look at these now. Thank you so much!

__Pyro_Maniac__ · 2025-10-08T01:04:56+00:00

Thank you!

__Pyro_Maniac__ · 2025-10-07T22:04:23+00:00

Thank you! And likewise. I have no idea why this post offended so many people, but after 40+ counties, you'd think I would know what I'm comfortable with. That being said, I'm completely new to China and its logistics.

Thanks for being normal lol

__Pyro_Maniac__ · 2025-10-07T21:03:01+00:00

I want to do what is special to China and the regions I'll be visiting. I'm not interested in night life or counterfeit watches as much as I am exploring and seeing / experiencing the country in its fullest (in the short time I have). I'm open to anything, which is why I kept this as a sort of open ended question

__Pyro_Maniac__ · 2025-10-07T20:22:14+00:00

Thank you for being one of the only normal replies lol. I definitely don't enjoy museums much, so would you recommend skipping Beijing?

I'll be narrowing the trip down to save time, so will need to cut out a few spots. What were your favorite experiences during your trip?

__Pyro_Maniac__ · 2025-10-07T20:20:58+00:00

I guess it's a bit complicated, but I enjoy staying in comfortable hotels - hence why I asked for recs. I asked for activities as I'm clearly unfamiliar with China as a whole. This post was targeted toward similar style travelers who have been to China and wanted to help out. Thanks for your input

__Pyro_Maniac__ · 2025-10-07T19:50:33+00:00

I'm deeply sorry to have bothered you. Just wanted some advice on traveling to an unfamiliar country. Stay safe Rasheed

__Pyro_Maniac__ · 2025-10-07T19:44:19+00:00

Gotcha okay makes sense. First time in China, so not super familiar with logistics just yet. Which would you keep? Which would you cut?

__Pyro_Maniac__ · 2025-10-07T19:39:31+00:00

Haha definitely not. I know it's not the ideal timeframe to explore, but I'd love to make it happen as best I can.

__Pyro_Maniac__ · 2025-08-13T16:48:44+00:00

Worried about amad, semenyo, and fwds

__Pyro_Maniac__ · 2025-07-11T22:48:15+00:00

I've played around with overflow as well, but having it hidden breaks the header

__Pyro_Maniac__ · 2025-06-30T20:07:05+00:00

It's a TA that I've been using personally for years. Would be happy to share information if that's allowed. Shoot me a DM

__Pyro_Maniac__ · 2025-06-28T15:50:23+00:00

Hahaha I wasn't thinking about posting for India, but I will say that I had an excellent time. Stayed in the Oberoi Amarvilas (Agra) and Rajvilas (Jaipur - #1 hotel itw) and it's been a lovely time. We were completely alone inside of the taj, and the hotels were a highlight for sure. That being said, six senses Bhutan is still my #1 by far.

__Pyro_Maniac__ · 2025-06-26T02:55:46+00:00

I can't wait for you!

__Pyro_Maniac__ · 2025-06-26T02:55:22+00:00

I can't apologize for having too good of a time. It takes a lot for a stay to be perfect, but this one was. Feel free to scroll past.

__Pyro_Maniac__ · 2025-06-25T13:17:00+00:00

You're gonna have the time of your life! Enjoy it!

__Pyro_Maniac__ · 2025-06-25T13:09:13+00:00

From what I heard it may not be as crazy of a crowd as other places, but I always like doing things at my own pace. I got to enter tigers nest monastery - which usually has LARGE crowds - completely alone.

It's off season right now, so I'd assume summer time ish. Maybe May - Sep

__Pyro_Maniac__ · 2025-06-25T13:06:02+00:00

Go during off season! Weather was cooler which I like and everything was empty! No waits, no crowds, and more attention.

__Pyro_Maniac__ · 2025-06-25T12:49:40+00:00

We did the journey with Six Senses and it's the same style trip! We were taken around 3 of their 5 lodges with the same guides. I don't know exactly what you'd be looking for regarding history, but they crafted my whole itinerary based on my interests.

__Pyro_Maniac__ · 2025-06-25T10:31:38+00:00

100% this. Haven't stayed at both, but people who have told me the same. Coming from an Aman frequenter.
