<p style="text-align: justify;">Yangphel Adventure Travel has been in business for 22 years as of December 2009. We are the pioneers in handling your travel arrangements in Bhutan be it in touring or trekking. You are assured of the finest service available in the Kingdom. Whether you work with our Thimphu Bhutan office directly or through our trusted partners abroad, we are passionate about travel and are committed to making your stay in Bhutan as special as possible. We see our role as being both guide and host, combining our local knowledge and insight with the highest standards of service, before during and after your trip.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Through our close association with travel industry leaders we have rapidly become one of Bhutan&#8217;s leading tour operators. This success has been built upon a growing reputation for consistently delivering our clients the best. We see our role as being a trusted intermediary. It is our responsibility both to ensure that our guests receive optimal enjoyment from their stay in Bhutan, and that this is achieved in a way that is sympathetic to our Bhutanese customs and traditions. In an unassuming way we try to encourage common meeting grounds, bringing together individuals from very different backgrounds in a positive spirit of mutual respect and understanding. In our experience such exchanges invariably tend to generate unexpected rewards and lasting memories.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">
<strong> Yangphel Staff qualit</strong>y: Our personnel are some of the most highly qualified and experienced in the industry. We reward better than our competitors. Each member has had a broad-based training, which allows the performance of multiple roles and has improved all round understanding. A depth of experience is especially important in developing an open-minded attitude towards many different nationalities and when handling difficult situations and emergencies.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong> Meticulous preparation</strong>: The foundation for a successful trip lies in the choice of the most appropriate itinerary. We are continually improving our local knowledge and scouting out new tourism possibilities. Our service starts from the moment you contact us, and we are always on hand to listen to your individual needs, answer your questions and make informed suggestions.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Superior execution</strong>: Our know-how and infrastructure, together with a network of long-standing relationships within the industry, help us ensure that each trip is implemented to the best achievable standards. A high staff to client ratio improves overall service and provides invaluable flexibility in case of emergencies. From the time of your departure to your return our management will be there as backup, to follow up any queries and offer any necessary assistance.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong> Listening and learning</strong>: The satisfaction of our clients is very important to us. Our senior management meets with each guest, to resolve any concerns and gain valuable feedback. These dynamic interactions help us to continually improve our service, as new lessons are learned and ideas developed.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Best available service</strong>s: In many parts of the country food and accommodation arrangements are relatively basic. We aim to provide our clients with the best in each location. This is assessed through a combination Tourism Council approved hotel, lodge and guesthouse grading and our own experience. Individual hotel details are available on request.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Priority reservations</strong>: In the most popular destinations at peak season there almost always room shortages. Our network of excellent working relationships generally enables us to get our clients bookings at the more comfortable hotels. To better guarantee this, we are also in the process of expanding our own accommodation infrastructure.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Camping comfort</strong>: Our campsites are the best in the industry. The equipment we now use has been proven to be the most suited to particular Bhutanese conditions. For high-altitude treks we favor Marmot tents and accessories. For more gentle tour camping we have had tents custom-made to provide.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>High vehicle standards</strong>: We have a significant fleet of vehicles and only provide our clients with the vehicles of a high quality. For larger groups we use Toyota Coaster buses, specially modified for more legroom and comfort. For smaller groups we use Toyota Land cruisers, or other Toyota/Nissan cars.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Comprehensive trekking equipment package</strong>: In the interests of comfort and safety we provide a wide selection of trekking equipment. This includes tents and mattresses, tables and chairs, lanterns, shower pumps, walkie-talkies, medical kits and altitude sickness bags. All our equipment’s are of the highest standard.</p>
