Our group, the ease of itinerary, the trek, Bhutan - everything! I felt like we were on a very local and cultural trip that didn't feel like a 'tour'.
The location was incredible! The culture and activities/tours were fun and interesting. The tour guides were the best!! The tour group was a wonderful group of people. Ann was a great host!
We had a travel group that meshed very well. Many solo travelers, like myself, so that was reassuring from the start.

It was one of the best experiences of my life. It was my first trip to Asia and I will not be deterred by the long flight to go again. I am so glad the cultural component of the trip was as rich and varied as it was and that it was presented to us by such a wonderful young man from Bhutan. He treated us like family and really helped me see the interweaving of Buddhism into all aspects of living in Bhutan. I tell everyone if they want a special experience they will always remember they need to travel to Bhutan. If they are a runner I emphasize how fantastic the marathon experience was as well.
A truly incredible experience! I would highly recommend a trip to Bhutan.
The guides and staff were phenomenal! They were extremely accommodating in insuring we had the best experience. I would highly recommend this group.
The Race Courses were hard but great. Was impressed that ALL THE UPHILLS WERE ON THE COURSE!, lol
Great group of travelers, great hosts and guides.
You can't explain the country, you have to see it. People still can't believe the course we ran.
If one wishes to experience a deep Buddhist culture, which is striving to maintain its true identity in the beauty of the Himalayas, with the bonus of a foot race, this is the life experience for you.
What did I like best? All aspects of the Druk Path Trek, visit to temples, Buddhist monks' blessing before the race and local nature of the race. Hotels and van were comfortable, food good and communication excellent.
Brutally difficult course, but very well marshaled. I was worried about the spacing between the water stops, but having full sized bottles of water to carry worked quite well.
If I could, I would give our guides an 11 out of 10. They were phenomenal -- knowledgeable, personable, terrific.
Jeff, you are a rock star leader. You are upbeat, engaging with everyone, excellent communicator and a great conversationalist - and, you take photos.
Loved the course....it was difficult but so so so enjoyable....the scenery was spectacular... the single track was FUN! Course markings were excellent, rest stops plentiful.
I was thrilled with the beauty of the country and being able to spend so much time hiking it. The camaraderie of most participants and staff added to the fun
This is a unique trip because the run is actually secondary in the experience. Words really can't describe it, I'm telling friends to go and then lets talk!
It was professionally organized, the guides were great, every day was an adventure, the hikes, especially Tigers Nest was just awesome. Jeff's attention to detail and his ability to connect with everyone on the trip makes it a great experience.
Inspirational, spiritual and unique.
