A Personal Welcome from the Founder

My journey in Bhutan's tourism industry began on the trails and in the monasteries, as a licensed local guide. I had spent years guiding travelers through Bhutan's mountains, cultural sites, and remote villages.

Starting my career as a guide allowed me to gain deep, firsthand knowledge of Bhutan's landscapes, traditions, and way of life. Walking alongside travelers from around the world, I learned what truly matters to them: authenticity, safety, cultural understanding, and meaningful experiences. These early years shaped my approach to tourism and inspired me to create a company built on trust, professionalism, and genuine Bhutanese hospitality.

With experience gained on countless treks, cultural tours, and festival journeys, I founded Trekkup Bhutan to offer travelers more than just a tourto offer them a true connection with Bhutan. Today, I continue to personally oversee itineraries, guide standards, and service quality, ensuring that every guest experience Bhutan in a respectful, enriching, and unforgettable way.

My passion for Bhutan's culture, nature, and people remains at the heart of Trekkup Bhutan. I am proud to welcome travelers to my country and to share Bhutan not only as a destination, but as a living heritage and a way of life.
