MOST
RECENT TESTIMONIALS FROM
PAST CLIENTS:
We have just returned from our seventh
visit to Bhutan. Karma Tenzin has been our guide for each trip,
starting in 1996! As on every visit arranged by Karma's Jeroma Tours,
every litlle detail was planned meticulously according to our requests.
We made an ambitious 15 day visit, travelling countrywide from west to
east, primarily to attend the festival at the remote temple Gomphu
Kora. Our driver on this occasion was Karma's elder son, Kinley,
who did a fine job. He was skilled, cautious, careful & utterly
courteous throughout the trip, going out of his way to give assistance
whenever he could. As with any journey in Bhutan, there were
challenges requiring adaptations, and, as always, Karma adjusted
arrangements according to necessity, ensuring an easy and comfortable
experience in all respects. We had a wonderful time in every
aspect, and heartily recommend Jerma Tours to any prospective
traveller to Bhutan.

Our Bhutan-Tour 2018 - Full of many
pleasant surprises. We know Bhutan for more than 12 years already and visited
Bhutan many times. Our permanent guide since 2006 is the owner of Jeroma Tours
and Travel, Karma Tenzing. He and his colleagues are doing a very good job.
Each journey was very well prepared, full of highlights and unique. Also in
this year we returned to Germany with many fantastic impressions of this
country and the friendly people. Our tour was split in a trekking part and a
sightseeing part. Some of the surprises which we underwent were: A visit at an
astrologer in Paro, participation at a completion ceremony in Gangtey, meeting
with the chairperson of parliament of Bhutan, participation at an obsequies in
Gogona, visit of different domestic farmer homes, two guest nights in a
monastery in Khotokha, meeting with a Yogi, visit of some really holy places, a
hot-stone bath with holy water in a forest in Tshochena, one puja at Khewang
Lhakhang in Phobjikha, one puja at Karma's place in Thimphu and, and, and
...Till now we are deeply impressed and feed on these experiences/adventures.
Certainly we will come back to Bhutan and Jeroma Tours and Travel again. Many
thanks and Tashi Delek Karma

I have just returned from Bhutan, the most beautiful country in the
world. The scenery in the Himalayas is magnificent, and the Bhutanese
people aare the loveliest, friendliest, most helpful people you could
meet. My guide was a man called Karma, and he picked up on the type of
person I was, and tailored my holiday to suit my tastes. I had the most
adventurous time I could imagine, met, shared life with the local
people, and did some trekking and camping out, spent some time in
Thimphu, the capital, shopping. Karma was always somewhere around, but
unlike a lot of guides in other countries, did not crowd me, so,
although I was safe at all times, I felt free to go where I wished. If
you want a holiday you will always remember, I suggest you email Karma
via this website. I have been three times now, and look forward to
going back in the future, and will be contacting Karma for the next
trip.

End of November 2016 I saw
pictures of landscapes of Bhutan...at that
moment I decided I had to go there. Then I began to see ads that offer
travel
on the Internet, many of which offer trips to Bhutan. But every time I
call
their phone number, none have replied. Then I remember Karma Tenzin,
one of the
brother's pen friends, he lived in Bhutan and had a job as a tour
leader. After chatting via skype...we agreed, I would use his services
to manage my tour of
Bhutan. Finally I managed to visit Bhutan, from 2 February to 12 February 2017. Bhutan
provides an atmosphere very different from the atmosphere in Indonesia, the
atmosphere was like in the ancient story in Chinese movies. Buildings or temples
seem so old, high and of course beautiful. The views at the farm were lovely
and certainly different from the farms in Indonesia. Although the first 3 days
in Bhutan I found it a little difficult to eat. (Not yet familiar with the
aroma of Bhutan), but on the farm I feel that what is cooked by the girls who
lived in tasted delicious. And I liked, a few days of the tour that I live
there, hiking into the hills surrounding the village, going up the hill with a
height of 3 km, tiring but impressive, due to fresh air and beautiful places
visited.
For all the wonderful and memorable experience while in Bhutan, I say
thank you to Karma who has shown the beauty of Bhutan to me. Karma made my
wishes come true, to see Bhutan. Hopefully, others may have as memorable
experience as I did.
Sumarni Ong (edited & loosely translated from Indonesian) February 2017
In June, we made our sixth visit to Bhutan. All of our visits,
beginning in 1996, have been organised and guided by Karma Tenzin. That
in itself shows the esteem we hold Karma in. We were met at Paro
airport and after spending a pleasant couple of days in that delightful
town, including a visit to the historic and sacred Kyerchu Temple,
where a festival was being celebrated, and a must-do climb up to see
the famous Taktsang Hermitage on horseback, we set off to visit the Haa
Valley, travelling over the highest road pass in Bhutan Chele La (13
000ft). We had a delightful stay in a farmhouse, where we were treated
to a traditional hot stone bath, before the fascinating drive back down
to the main Paro Thimphu road en route to the capital. We had a couple
of nights in a very nice hotel in Thimphu, with good meals in local
restaurants and a visit to the oldest dzong in the kingdom on the
outskirts of town. Then we set out for the long drive to Bumthang,
overnighting near Wangdue in a delightful lodge with great views over
the dzong, which is being rebuilt following a disastrous fire
devastated it in 2012. We travelled on to spend a night in a room with
a spectacular view of the dzong in Trongsa, and then we headed off for
the Chume Valley to visit a festival at a small but important temple at
Nimalung. En route we stopped off to visit Chime temple, associated
with the Divine Madman. Although the roads were terrible, as always in
the rainy season, we had been provided with a high quality 4WD vehicle
and an excellent driver. As usual, we pleased Karma and showed respect
for the Bhutanese culture by wearing traditional dress to the festival.
Following this, we moved on to visit another, very important annual
festival, held at the sacred Kurjey temple in Bumthang, staying at a
very pleasant lodge outside Jakar. Enjoying the festival enormously, it
was time to head back east to reluctantly take our leave of Karma
and family and fly home. It was a hugely fascinating, inspiring and fun
trip. Everything was organised perfectly by Karma as always, who
continually went out of his way to respond to our interests, likes and
feelings with great sensitivity and generosity. Karma's Jeroma Tours
and Treks company is entirely reliable, organised, knowledgeable and
experienced, and we could not recommend them more highly.
Derek & Sheila 6 July 2016
We were a couple in a "mini-group" for a very nice week in Bhutan.
Karma is extremely hospitable closer to our own place and nation. Our
weekly program was good, varied and planned for conditions adjusted to
the country. Nevertheless, it was possible to still incorporate our
suggestions towards small changes. Karma organized everything admirably
and with great empathy when it came to our wishes and expectations. It
should be emphasized that he also took into account highlights, and
built into our plans the temple festival in Paro. That was an absolute
hightlight of our trip, that we probably would have missed without
Karma. Karma has brought us closer, more knowledgeable and absolutely
in tune with his country, which we alone could never have experienced.
Helge Heidemeyer 9 April 2016 (translated from German)
In March 2016, we spent a ten day trip through western and central Bhutan wonderfully organized by Karma.
Karma was very flexible, to take account of our spontaneous desires. So
we thought of only in Trongsa to exchange a stay in Haa valley against
Bumthang including the necessary changes to the hotel stays. He advised
us well, what works and what does not. to follow his advice, usually
recommended especially in view of the disastrous road conditions if you
want to not just sit in the car. The highlight was certainly the Tsechu
in Paro, the Karma had perfectly inserted in our trip planning.
Finally, we were even twice for dinner at his house, one of which
should be a Puja. In short: Karma offers a lot more than one can expect
from a tour operator and is extremely well informed, especially in all
respects to Buddhism. Jeroma Tours I can only recommend without
reservation!
Stefan Rolle 9 April 2016 (translated from German)
We had a wonderful time in Bhutan in February 2016 organized by Jeroma
Tours' Karma and his son Kinley Dorji. The tour was designed according
to all our needs, such as a brilliant spiritual explanation of the main
principles of Buddhist philosophy, delicious food in the local places,
and a pleasant immersion in the local preserved culture. An additional
big thank you to our driver Ugyen Dorji for his fantastic hospitality
and great sense of humour. We were well treated in Bhutan with lots of
love and happiness. We strongly recommend Jeroma Tours for your future
trip to Bhutan.
Ally & John 28 March 2016
My friend and I just spend
our first 6 days in Bhutan ever, guided most ably by Karma Tensing. He was
a fantastically experienced, organised and friendly guide. Unlike many guides
Karma knew just when to interject or adjust the itinerary and when to leave us
to enjoy the magnificent sites and scenery by ourselves. We got the impression
that Karma is one of the most experienced guides in Bhutan. He was
certainly able to share a great deal of fascinating
cultural information but also listened carefully to our requests when
it came to specific things such as food, accommodation etc. I cannot recommend
Karma highly enough, he was definitely one of the reasons we had such a
wonderful first trip to Bhutan. All the very best Karma!
Alex Clegg 22 February 2016
In February/March 2015, we had 16 wonderful days together with Karma in Bhutan. The organisation was straightforward via email, and Karma arranged and implemented our wishes, ideas and suggestions in the itinerary well. Core were 2 days at the fantastic festival in Punakha. During the Druk Trek, unfortunately we were stuck on the 2nd day in 30cm of snow, but were well equipped andcould turn back safely. In terms of culture and Buddhism, Karma is a very competent guide. We cannot recommend him highly enough. One evening he invited us to his home where his wife had cooked a delicious meal. Dear Karma, thank you very much !!
Hartmut & Martin 3 April 2015 (translated from German)
Thanks,
Karma, due to your good organisation we know Bhutan really well,
especially in the world of Buddhism due to all the temples we were able
to visit. Karma looked after us competently and with kindness. We will
be back.
Ulli & Frank 15 November 2014 (loosely translated from German)
Our complete crossing of Bhutan in April 2014 was organized by Karma wonderfully, although he could not be with us himself during the entire tour. He had, however, taken good care for replacements (guide and driver Dorje). They were relatively flexible during the tour and so could be responsive to our needs. A very successful trip. Jeroma Tours and Karma are just great.
Gaby & Christoph 5 June 2014 (translated from German)
In
February 2014, we spent ten wonderful days in Bhutan. With this trip, we
realised a dream of ours. In Karma, we had an excellent guide who modestly knew
all about his country, culture and customs. We also had the privilege of eating
one evening with his family. To have Karma as tour guide is highly recommended.
Rudi
& Rolland 11 April 2014 (translated from German)
Bhutan
is a country that has fascinated me for a long time . I
had read many years ago about it and that one or other banking
students' dissertations dealt with the gross happiness concept. I
decided I should go in June to Bhutan . Because of my master's
thesis there remained for me little time to prepare for my trip. I
found in Karma an incredible talent for organization . He
arranged for me a trip that matched my requirements and desires,
organized visas and even solved problems with the flights. And all this
in a lead time of about 3 weeks before the actual trip. Although I did
not personally travel with Karma but two of his employees, I had during
my stay in Bhutan regular telephone contact with him, in which he
inquired regarding my feelings and satisfaction with everything. My
trip to this country and especially with Karma was a huge success, and
I can only recommend anyone to arrange their journey with the
Jeroma Tours organization. I will definitely organize my
next Bhutan trip with Karma and hope for a personal encounter
with him then. Tashi Delek.
Cornelia Pasch 2 January 2014 (translated from German)
We
had our fifth Bhutan adventure with Karma Tenzin in October 2013, when
we flew into Paro and drove to Bumthang in central Bhutan to attend the
Jampa Lhakang Drubchen (religious festival). As always, Karma's
planning, organisation and attention to detail were impeccable, so we
had a wonderful time and an unique cultural experience. Karma is the
perfect guide and companion. We cannot recommend Jeroma Tours too
highly.
Derek & Sheila Henderson 19 December 2013 (UK)
Dear folks!
My wife and I toured Bhutan between 28th October and 04th November
and thoroughly enjoyed the ambience and hospitality of your wonderful
nation. Special credit must go to Mr Karma Tenzin for taking such
painstaking interest in all our requirements and his personalized
attention. We are very touched by his gesture and found it beyond the
ordinary. I congratulate Jeroma Tours and Mr Karma for making our 34th
wedding anniversary and trip to cherish for a very long time. I will
surely recommend your organization to all my friends and acquaintances.
Long live the Bhutan king and hail the mystical and happy people of
Bhutan! My wife commented that she did not lose her temper even once
throughout our stay in Bhutan. That's the kind of magic your country
has. With fond regards,
Surgeon Commander (Dr) K Chandra Sekhar and Dr (Mrs) Vijayalakshmi Chandrasekhar November 2013 (Visakhapatnam, India)
A big thank you
to "Jeroma Tours" who
organized our wonderful trip to
Bhutan.
We were dazzled by
the stunning scenery and the incredible variety
of nature, but also by the power
of "Dzongs", peace
of the monasteries, the charming
villages, the beauty of the
architecture, the friendly people.
.. They enclosed a small
mystical air while making the atmosphere
very refreshing, especially compared to
the rampant materialism that
reigns in the Western world.
For
convenience we must say that the price of
the trip was reasonable,
comfortable car and the route that
matches our desires despite some
surprise that was part of the decor.
As for the food it was adapted to
our stomachs, hotels were nice
and charmingly welcome. In this
chapter, we especially want to thank
the "manager" Mr. Karma and his
nice family and friends for their homey
home.
Big thank you
also to our two guides,
guide, Ngawang and the driver,
Namgya. Their efficiency in the
management and generosity in the effort
made possible the beautiful and rewarding
ten days we spent with
you.
In my case, I can
say that there will be now a
"before" and "after" Bhutan.
And maybe the "in
situ" reflection on the concept of
"gross national happiness"
there is also
something.
Thank you again and
best wishes for the future.

We travelled
to Bhutan in June, 2013 for 15 days with Karma as our guide and organizer. Karma
knows his country, culture and religion very well and was warm and helpful in
imparting this information. He was able
to alter the itinerary at short notice and always with a smile. He was patient,
considerate and a wonderful story-teller, especially in retelling Yeti-stories
with his impeccable sense of humor. We
thank Karma and his organization and recommend him to others considering a
venture into Bhutan, its culture/history and into Buddhism as a religion and
way of life.
Nika
(Russia) and Frank (Australia)
From Bangkok, we travelled in April 2013 for 3 days in Bhutan. At Paro airport we were greeted with warmth by Karma and then immediately brought to our hotel. The stay in Bhutan was an impressive experience for us thanks to the perfectly put together itinerary of Karma. Thanks to Karma and we wish him continued success.
Josef Stark und Verena Bohrer 16 May 2013 (translated from German)
In March, we came up with a big dream, to visit Bhutan. Via the
internet we found a website that convinced us that Karma was the person
to arrange this. We comprehensively thank Karma for his decades of
experience, and his maximum attention to both past and present of this
beautiful little country, its Buddhist spirit, its natural treasures
and its people's culture. We started at the border town
Phuntsholing and after Paro and Thimphu travelled to the east to
Sandrup Jongkar. It was a great privilege for us. Karma hosted us at
his home, and we got to know his family. The guest houses we stayed at
during our visit fully met our expectations, the staff were all helpful
and friendly, and Karma's attentiveness, calmness ("no problem" )and
excellent organisational skills meant we had nothing else to do but
abandon ourselves to the enjoyments offered to us by the country.
Many thanks to Karma and his team. Tashi Delek.
Csiszár Judit és Kulcsár László 21 April 2013 (loosely translated from Hungarian)
We were a group of seven people and had chosen the end of September/early October for our 14 days in Bhutan, a very reasonable period of time - still nice and warm, no rain. In a long preparatory phase, there was an intensive email contact with Karma and he went as far as possible to meet our special requests. So we visited several temples and monasteries that are a bit off the usual tourist programs, often we could meditate undisturbed as the only visitors, or attend a puja by monks or nuns. Also a desirable meeting with a Karma Rinpoche was made possible. And although the routes needed a lot of time because of bad roads, Karma had considered our vision and we met regularly for walking, finding in this way a direct contact with this wonderful country, its places of power, friendly people, and peaceful animals. Karma taught us a lot about Buddhism, for all other questions he was open, and in the evening he showed us with his whimsical Yeti stories his humorous side. He lovingly cared for our well-being, like a sore throat wanting warm milk with honey, and in a room problem (noisy neighbours) he immediately offered his own room, on the way to Tiger's Nest, he took over the heavy backpack of a fellow traveler. I also want to mention thanks to our young but very skillful driver Dorji, who took us on a small bus through the country, and in tricky situations was not fazed, sometimes singing to music on the radio and played in the breaks on his flute - this was appreciated by us all. Overall, it was an incredibly beautiful and very unique journey into the peace and the silence. Thank you so much, dear Karma.
Brigitte Sangye Lhamo 11 April 2013 (translated from German)
We were granted the good fortune to visit Bhutan in March 2011. Karma Tenzin, thank you very much for your patience and quick response to all of our questions in preparation for the trip. We have also learned to appreciate his talent for organization. Among other things, he has allowed us to spontaneously have an unforgettable experience: a "hot stone bath" (hot lava stones placed in the water). Although this holiday was not very long, we feel we have received a very deep insight into the life and environment of this country. Karma, our guide and interpreter, has lead us confidently in the German language and thereby spared no effort to fulfill our wishes. We are also very grateful to have had the benefit of Ajid, a reliable, considerate and always helpful chauffeur. The strong impressions and experiences of this trip, we will keep in our hearts. To visit Bhutan once more would make us very happy. Once again, Karma Tenzin and his staff are warmly thanked, together with best wishes for health and welfare.
Sabine & Wolfgang 4 May 2011 (translated from German)
A journey into a wonderland that was only a beautiful dream. Karma and his driver have made my 10 days in Bhutan an unforgettable experience. It was worth every single penny and I would make this trip at any time. Karma really could read every wish of the eyes and was fully addressed to my needs. His driver, who has a very good and safe driving style, ensured this trip was a success. From my deepest heart a big THANK YOU dear Karma. Thanks to you I have become incredibly fond of your mystical country with its understated but incredibly warm people.
Sandra Naef 2 April 2011 (translated from German)
Thank you to Karma and his team for a very successful short visit to Bhutan. In three days he has reported so much about the country and people that I have the feeling of having been there much longer. Lots of information. Super help with visa. Great accompaniment. Absolutely perfect!
Maike Fethke 26 February 2011 (translated from German)
We travelled with Karma and his guide Chencho 14 days through Bhutan, 9 days culture, 5 days trekking. Thank
you very much for the perfect organization, the hospitality, the
attention, kindness, letting us find our happiness in this country. A detailed trip report with many pictures and lots of information on Bhutan can be found at bl0ck.de
Tamara and Frank Block 15 January 2011 (translated from German)
10 DAYS IN HIMALAYA PARADISE From 08 to 17 October 2010 we were allowed to travel through the small Himalayan paradise Bhutan. As a professional photographer it is very important for me to spot a local contact person to whom I can leave myself 100%. With his quick apprehension and proactive manner Karma Tenzin quickly understood me and my work. Karma
was an absolute stroke of luck in the usually rather laborious
preparatory work with Visa, flight, etc. He has supported us and
respond within a very short time on our e-mails. His preliminary work was immaculate and very efficient! With his support, it was possible to make such a special trip in a few weeks on the legs. We
were also pleased that we directly support a local business, Jeroma
Tours in the country, and give up a travel agency in Switzerland. During the trip it all worked perfectly and we were more than
satisfied with the service from Jeroma Tours; Karma is an excellent
organizer, the desires of its guests can still read from the lips
without being intrusive. His quiet, very serious but in no way passive manner was extremely pleasant and very efficient. Above
all it was me in my photographic work he is a very good help and could
give me valuable tips about lighting conditions, specific locations
etc.. In
portrait series of the local population, he has also actively supported
me and done an excellent job I would have never expected and I have on
all my photo trips never experienced in this type! Karma's advantage is that he has lived and studied for extended periods in Europe. In particular, I would also like to point out Karma's flair in the choice of accommodations and restaurants. We
always stayed in very tasteful guest houses and thanks to Karma, good
contacts with the owners, even now and in unique suites. Karma has a very large general empathy and would do anything for the welfare of his guests. We have seen wonderful 10 days in Bhutan and loved this unique country! We will certainly return again - but this has only been organized by Karma :-). The photographic result of the photo tour is to see from now on my website under the heading newest portfolio. (Please
search my website with "ORTHart Photography" in Google) Have fun
and Tashi Delek!
Dominik Orth (ORTHart Photography) & Nathalie Werner Zurich, Switzerland 31 Dec 2010 (translated from German)
We travelled from 16.10. until
02.11.2010 from Samdrup to Paro with Jeroma Tours. Our guide Chencho
and driver Ugyen gave us a holiday in a class. We got to know the country and especially the friendly Bhutanese well and had fun with them. The organization was perfect and extremely flexible, even beyond the program. Actually we were already read every wish from your eyes. In
the temple festivals, we always had the best seats, the car, hotels and
even the weather was ok, we did take care of anything. Highly recommended. We'll be back.
Elisabeth Günther 20 December 2010 (translated from German)
We had a wonderful trip in Bhutan with our guide Kelly. Everything was perfectly organized and the first cultural week, we had competent information about the country and people. Thanks also to the crew on our Jomolhari Trek. The weather was sunny and we had an unforgettable experience. Then recommend anyone to travel with Jeroma Tours travel. We will come back safely.
Frieder and friends 28 November 2011 (translated from German)
Gigantic Snowman Trek. We, Frieder, Reiner and Thomas from Jena in Germany completed the Snowman trek in October / November 2010. This trekking tour was a big challenge and one of our most impressive adventures. Passes and camp sites over 5000m, back country villages near to border of Tibet, unique world of mountains and nature! The perfect organizer of this tour was Karma Tenzing, who took part. Thank you very much Karma. You and your team (Assistant Nidup and Kolo, Samten cook, horsemen and Phurba Dawa) were excellent! It was my fourth trip Bhutan organised by your tavel agency and be sure it will not be the last one. Tashi Delek, Karma!
Axel and Kedel 5 December 2011 (translated from German)
Anyone who makes a journey through Bhutan with Karma Tenzing has hit the jackpot. We were so lucky. It was an unforgettable trip. From 16 - 30 September, we travelled with Karma and his friendly driver Ugyen in a very convenient drive from Paro to Bumthang and back. We participated in three fascinating temple festivals in Thimpu, and, in Bumthang valley, Gantey and another. Karma
took care of us photographers with super seats, folding chairs conjured
out of the trunk, and sometimes he surprised us with hot lunch in the
temple, on the raging riverside or in a remote mountain valley. Through him, we could also find access to the people in mountain valleys, who did not speak English. He
also brought to us his Buddhism religion, his unobtrusive way brought it closer
to us and gave us an insight into the culture of his country. Karma has a natural
caring and sensitive attitude to the diverse interests of its guests. His incredible experience and knowledge make him the perfect guide. His
previous visits to Europe helped him bring things to us through the
eyes of a foreign visitor. We were very restrained and his human nature
and its flexibility excited us. More
than once we were more than surprised that he had very quietly in the
background arranged something "very secret" for us. We want to emphasize
the reliability of Karma. The
preparation of our trip, i.e. procurement of visas, airline reservation
with Druk Air and the financial management of a bank account in Germany
were absolutely precise and easy. We hope to keep in touch and to stay
friends with him, and to know how his nice family and Jeroma Tours develop.
Thank you, Karma. Tashi Delek!
Hans and Sylvia, from Dusseldorf 31 October 2010 (translated from German)
09/22/2010 to 14:10:10, we were up in Bhutan with Jeroma Tours. It was one of the best trips to date. We were, after 2 days at Paro, initiated to the 7 days (partial) Jomolhari trek. It was a fantastic experience and the whole team was just great. Our guide Rinchen, the chefs, the people who looked after the mules, everything was perfect. Also, the onward travel until after Samdrup Jonkar was tops, with Chencho Ulgy as guide and as a driver. We have seen so many beautiful things and had great experiences, we can only recommend Karma. We also hope to come back again sometime in April when the blooms are out .... Rhodondendren. Tashi Delek and thank you !!!!!
Lea, Jan & Marlene 18 October 2010 (translated from German)
Jeroma Tours organized for us a wonderful tour of Bhutan. After
a cultural part, we dared to do the Jomolhari trek, helped by
Chenchou, our German-speaking guide and the accompanying 4 man team,
along with 10 mules, and their care. Compared to any of our previous treks in the Himalayas, it was such good food (even with an apple pie, we were surprised). When it got very cold at night, there was a hot water bottle for everyone in their sleeping bag. The mountains were unforgettable, especially in the morning when the sun's first rays of golden light appear on the
summit. We will be happy to recommend our
friends this travel agency ... Tashi Delek and good luck for the future
Ulrika / Frank Kaschel 16 October 2010 (translated from German)
No one knows Bhutan better! We were with Karma for 8 days in a car travelling through Bhutan, and it was sensational. To enumerate all the many places and experiences at this point would be too long, but it was just fantastic. We were able to make the whole trip very individual, Karma responded to our
proposals/amendments immediately and did everything possible. Great hiking through small valleys with hidden temples, theatres in
Wangdue monastery, night-life in Paro (with dancing Driver), Karma also
has lots and lots of sights away from the "main tourism". His
calm manner, his deep knowledge and his constant care of his guests
have made this holiday unforgettable. THANK YOU KARMA! Greetings from
Bremen and Dusseldorf from Sven and Lars
Sven & Lars 26 September 2010 (translated from German)
Our 7 day journey through Bhutan was hands down the trip of our lives, all made
possible by Jeroma Tours. We couldn't have asked for a more perfect guide to
take us around such a magical country. Karma's kindness, flexibility,
attentiveness, attention to detail, and incredible knowledge of the region and
its people makes him a guide in a league of his own. Our experience was truly
authentic and never felt like we were on a "tour", but instead felt like we were
being shown the real Bhutan by our Bhutanese friend.
Everything about our
journey exceeded our expectations and we did not have to worry about one single
thing because Karma was taking care of us - the ultimate vacation! Thank you
Karma and Jeroma tours for such an unforgettable experience, we can't wait to
come back! Tashi Delek!
Karissa & Katharine, California USA July 2010
We visited Bhutan in April / May for 15 days. This fascinating and varied trip was led by Karma
Tenzin. His
slogan "Nobody knows better Bhutan" we can only confirm after this trip,
he really knows every corner of this country. We passed through Bhutan
from West to East and back again, seeing it only as a friendly and open-minded
people, we were invited by a local family for tea, visited the first
celebration of a new house, took a hot stone bath, and had many other
wonderful and fascinating experiences, to enumerate all is beyond the
scope here. Top highlight was a wedding ceremony in a temple organized for us by
Karma (Bhutan was our honeymoon). If someone is interested in this wonderful country, he
can trust in Karma and his team. Thanks for the great organisation
of a culturally rich and exciting journey! Tashi Delek!
Sabine & Matthias 29 May 2010 (translated from German)
What
a successful stay in Bhutan it was throughout! Unfortunately we had
only five days, but in these days, we experienced a lot. The whole
thing was perfectly organised by Karma: good accommodations, great
driver, lots of variety, knowledgeable guide - everything we could
want. Many thanks!
