TESTIMONIALS

“My wife and I have travelled extensively internationally. Our time with Ugen and Gomo Adventures was one of the best adventures we have ever had. Every detail was attended to. At the outset we were presented with a detailed itinerary printed on beautiful handmade paper. Ugyen was not afraid to change this itinerary when even better opportunities arose. For example, we had an unplanned visit with an 11year old Lama, the reincarnation of the mind! I looking forward to the day I can return to beautiful Bhutan and stay in Ugyen’s brand new ecolodge.”

“Ugyen Wangchuk, popularly known as Punap Ugyen Wangchuk – a nod to his birthplace, Punakha – is a tourist guide who is also an accomplished and passionate photographer. For most people, it’s their love for a craft that takes them on their career journey, but Punap Ugyen Wangchuk believes that it was fate that led him to photography and guiding.”

” As a travel writer, I work with guides (and photographers) on a monthly, often weekly basis. Ugyen Wangchuk, who I met on an extraordinary and constantly evolving journey for the Financial Times last week, immediately placed into my top three guides of all time. His range of knowledge, across nature, religion, myth, history and culture, runs very deep. It emerges naturally and gently. “

” Ugyen guided us with a deep knowledge not only of his country’s history, but also seemed to be on a first-name basis with most of the citizens. He had spent the first part of his life as a monk, and was still greeted warmly at the monasteries we visited. He introduced us to abbots and we were warmly welcomed wherever we went.”
