If you’re planning a trip to the beautiful country of Bhutan, Six Senses is the ideal choice. We recently completed a 13-night journey, visiting all five lodges, and our experience was truly amazing. Bhutan offers a wealth of sights and activities, and Six Senses ensures that you can enjoy them in the utmost comfort and luxury. First and foremost, we would like to express our heartfelt gratitude to our guide, Chencho, and our driver, Jigme, who accompanied us throughout the entire two weeks. Our guide was highly professional, always accommodating our requests and changes in schedule. With his guidance, we gained a deep understanding of Bhutanese culture, and our hiking and nature walks with him were both enjoyable and safe. As we spent a significant amount of time in the car, traversing winding mountain roads and challenging terrains, the excellent driving skills of our driver ensured our comfort and, most importantly, our safety. We commend both of them for their exceptional service. If time and budget permit, we highly recommend visiting all five lodges. Although reaching Bumthang required a short flight and some effort, the forest location was breathtaking, and it left us in awe upon arrival. Each of the five locations has its own unique charm, with properties designed in harmony with the natural surroundings. Among these remarkable properties, the Paro lodge stands out as the absolute best. The Paro team took excellent care of us, providing flawless service throughout our stay. In addition to our daily hiking activities, we ordered some extra charge activities and specialty dinners. The Ruins Regale dinner on the eve of our departure was a truly unforgettable experience. Dressed in traditional Bhutanese attire, complete with ceremonial long boots, we enjoyed every moment. The Farmhouse dinner in Bumthang, the Cowshed dinner in Gangtey, and the Prayer Flag making with lunch in Paro were also highlights not to be missed. The food at all lodges was lovely, and we particularly enjoyed our experience making momo with the two cheerful young chefs in Bumthang. The restaurants offered a simple menu featuring both local and western selections, and the staff were more than happy to accommodate any special requests. One evening, my partner asked for tomato soup, which was not on the menu, but the restaurant gladly prepared it for us. Alongside the delicious meals served in the dining rooms, our specialty dining experiences added a delightful and varied dimension to our culinary journey. The only minor disappointment we encountered was the spa facilities. We visited the spas at all five locations and met both highly skilled therapists and some who were less professional. Having visited Six Senses Samui and Yao Noi last year, where we had exceptional spa experiences, our expectations were not fully met in Bhutan. Given the cold temperature in Bumthang, we expected the spa to be warm, but unfortunately, it was not. The shower inside the treatment ro
