Laya Village Escape: Life Above The Clouds

It is the story of a humble horseman, his beloved wife, once a tourism poster girl of Laya, and their adorable young daughter. Under a decade ago, Passang Tenzin, affectionately known as O Tenzin in his community, met a group of Bhutanese trekkers during their journeys across the highlands. What began as a simple meeting soon blossomed into a deep friendship built on trust, love, and care for one another. Together, they shared countless moments on mountain paths, weaving bonds that would one day give birth to a shared dream. That dream became Home Tale Laya, a four-room premium lodge built with friendship, faith, and the enduring spirit of Laya at its core. Constructed primarily from stone and wood, it embodies the strong natural elements of the region while maintaining a simple, authentic structure that beautifully reflects Bhutanese architecture. Within its humble frame, modern facilities have been fitted thoughtfully and practically, blending comfort with tradition. Through this journey, O Tenzin began to shift from the conventional highland way of living, where wealth was often measured by stacks of rice bags or bundles of blankets, toward a more mindful and sustainable lifestyle. He chose to invest in meaningful comforts, a home with running water, a warm kitchen, and a sense of dignity rooted not in possessions but in purpose. Today, Home Tale Laya is a quiet reflection of transformation, where friendship meets resilience, tradition meets modernity, and the essence of true wealth is redefined by love, care, and a better way of living.

I am so grateful to have come across Kinley’s tour and to have chosen him and his team. I went to Bhutan with my mother to celebrate her 60th birthday and Kinley went above and beyond to make the trip memorable. From careful curating an itinerary that fit exactly what we were searching for to, to driving two hours to deliver a birthday cake to celebrate my mom on the day of her birthday, to making sure we were experiencing the true beauty and essence of Bhutan, Kinley truly exceeded our expectations. Communication and planning was seamless with him every step of the way. The stays, restaurants experiences, people and beauty of Bhutan are life highlights I will remember forever. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for the best trip, Kinely!

Response from Kinley May 2026

Hosting Alexa and her wonderful mother from America here in Bhutan was truly a special experience for me. They came all the way to celebrate her mother’s 60th birthday, and I feel grateful that Bhutan became part of such an important milestone in their lives. From the very beginning, they arrived with so much warmth, curiosity, and appreciation for our culture. It wasn’t just about visiting places, it was about experiencing Bhutan with open hearts. Watching them enjoy our traditions, food, mountains, monasteries, and simple way of life reminded me how beautiful it is to see Bhutan through the eyes of first time visitors. One of the most memorable moments was celebrating her mother’s birthday here surrounded by the family of the homestays and all of us together. The happiness, laughter, and emotional moments shared during the trip made it feel less like hosting guests and more like spending time with family and friends. What touched me the most was their kindness and genuine respect for our people and culture. Conversations during that long night, shared meals, and quiet moments in nature created memories I will always cherish. Hosting guests like Alexa and her mother Lisa reminds me why I love doing this. It is not only about showing people around Bhutan, it is about creating connections, sharing stories, and giving people experiences they will carry with them forever. Thank you, Alexa and Lisa for choosing Bhutan to celebrate such a meaningful occasion. Wishing your mother many more years of happiness, good health, and adventure. Bhutan will always welcome you back with open arms 🇧🇹❤️ Sending lots of love from Bhutan. Kinley

Kinley is an excellent host and his tour agency is an outstanding company for a soulful trip to Bhutan. I had been twice to Bhutan and I felt paradise and the credit goes to Kinley for his heartwarming hospitality. I will recommend Kinley at any point of time. And at last Bhutan's serenity, warm natured people, scenic beauty is a must experience if not yet visited.

Congratulations, you’re at the place! Not only Bhutan is a good choice because as we say : you will not change Bhutan, Bhutan will change you, but going through Kinley is a great way to explore and discover Bhutan. Not only you’ll enjoy it but you’ll live an experience of life you cannot find anywhere with anyone else. I appreciated what I lived there and still treasure it and it changed me in good for good. Thank you Kinley and I hope you’ll give this lifetime experience to many more like me.
