ITB Asia – Transcend Travellers, Bhutan

To some surprise, the Kingdom of Bhutan Pavilion did not reappear at this year’s ITB Asia.  However, Bhutan’s Transcend Travellers made its reappearance as part of the Dynamic DMC’s Network.

The minimum daily package for tourists set at US$200 – US$250 per person per night depending on seasons, and upwards of that for those who cannot form a minimum group of 3, automatically limits the inflow of tourists to those who could afford it.  Considering that there are now well over 300 tour operators in Bhutan vying for this exclusive tourist pie, the curious question for Tshewang Toby Namgay, Managing Director of Transcend Travellers, is what makes his agency stands out.

“With every journey, we aim for a level of service beyond the expectations of our clients.  Hotels are carefully chosen.  In the vehicles, where stops may be inconvenient, we pack homemade cookies, coffee and tea, and where applicable, gourmet picnics.  We often surprise our travellers when they least expect it, for example, taking guests on a cultural immersion journey where they get to be local, to sit down with the locals, eat with them.  Where the level of service is compromised due to infrastructure constraints during peak seasons, we try to provide added value in the form of spa treatment or any suitable events that catches the interest of visitors.  For our trekkers, we provide mobile tents that is more luxurious than that provided by most agencies in Bhutan.”
