For all the guides every tour is the same; we go to the same place and we say the same things all over again but I keep in the mind that for the most of the guests it’s a lifetime experience hence I provide with the best of everything.

Bhutan is a country full of myths and legends and I also have funny stories to share as well which makes me to enjoy traveling around with my guests sharing my knowledge, experiences and stories of Bhutan. I am an active full fledged and certified Cultural Tour guide and have been working with Bhutan Swallowtail for the last 5 years.
Born and brought up in a remote village of Paro, surrounded by so many historic sights and ancient architecture and awesome landscape, nostalgia of my childhood days constantly run through me as I travel around with my guests and I become aware of the timelessness of my country, particularly of my village.
As a tour guide I am happily and professionally able to follow my passion of proudly showing off my country to my guests ensuring my guests are not only well taken care of in every aspects but also able to imbibe some of our happiness and contentment to take back home. Just like any of our Bhutan Swallowtail tour guides, being flexible, having fun and making sure that our guests get the most from their vacation is my primary focus and goal.

Being a tour guide is not just about pointing out landmarks and spouting historical facts but more to do with building a stimulating connection between a tourist and the local culture and ways of life.
