About Us

Who we are

A local Bhutanese tour operator, since 2012

Ideal Travel Creations is a local Bhutanese tour operator based in Thimphu, founded in 2012 by Bikee and Trishna — a husband-and-wife team dedicated to curating extraordinary journeys through every corner of the Kingdom.

We craft personalised Bhutan itineraries that cater to the unique preferences and interests of every traveller. For us travel is not just about destinations — it is about creating lasting memories and connections, and the kind of friendships that send guests home already planning a return.

Our mission

Our mission is to inspire wanderlust and facilitate meaningful exploration by offering tailor-made Bhutan travel experiences that exceed expectations.

Founders

Bikee & Trishna

Bikee has worked in Bhutan's tourism industry since 2006. After his studies he began his career with several Bhutanese travel companies, travelling extensively across the country and learning every corner of it. He specialises in organising creative, unique tours, treks and holidays in Bhutan, and is the key person behind Ideal Travel Creations. He is known for his creativity and is also passionate about music.

Trishna Rasaily comes from an educational background. She worked in schools in Bhutan and India before the founding of Ideal Travel Creations — including nine years as the head of a department — and brings a strong sense of administration, public relations and care to the company. She also leads the agency's programme of student educational tours and women's travel in Bhutan, drawing on her experience guiding many such groups personally.

“Dorji has excellent religious knowledge and the driving ability was exemplary. Dorji was terrific for our physical concerns, always helping, guiding. Sangay's explanations, experience, knowledge were interesting and wonderful — a bonus in addition to our guide was the complimentary upgrade to Le Meridien, Paro.”
