    Great tour for Nepal and Bhutan with a good balance of experiences with nature, culture, religion, architecture, and shopping :-) . I would recommend Bhutan Acorn to my closest family and friends. Before my trip, Karma was extremely helpful answering all my questions. During the trip everyone communicated with each other to make sure my tour goes seemless and effortless from my perspective. Two planned hotels had issues and I was given options to choose a preference, which was cool. I went with traditional, local, and unique experience. Most importantly, when I got sick Karma made sure that I was eating safely and extra precautions were taken, including providing extra water and hydration packets. One of my hotels was even upgraded to make sure that I am comfortable and can recover as quickly as possible. I offered to pay a little more, but was told not to concern myself and to simply enjoy my time. You never know what type of tour operator you will get, but I sure hope to get more like Bhutan Acorn in the future wherever my travels take me.
