We also provide you the alternative to choose both female guide and driver for your tour if you wish, for both male and female travellers bit it small or big groups. Not only for the trek you can also choose them for both cultural and other tours in Bhutan.

For nightlife, we recommend taking your guide along and ensuring the establishment is tourist-friendly. Guides and drivers do not drink alcohol while on duty. Many solo travelers enjoy socializing with their guides at bars in Thimphu and Paro. We also know several small and medium travel company owners who like to take their guests out for a drink or two. However, always be mindful of cultural differences.
