Planned trip to Bhutan

Hi,

I just started to plan a trip to Bhutan (my wife's dream). Here is what I know so far:

- the daily charge in Bhutan is around $250 per person and there seem to be a lot of well recommended travel agencies
- Interested in Buddism and doing trekking (not hardcore)
- Will use BA (first using a companion pass) to fly NYC > London > India (quick search showed Delhi and Mumbai would work on BA metal , Kolkata was not an option on BA > Delphi seems to be the better/closer alternative )
- Druk Air and Bhutan Airlines are the only ones flying into Paro
- on Druk air the pay up to business is very reasonable
- will probably travel October

Any tips that might guide me into the right direction as I am gearing up to do a more in detail research?

All help is appreciated (including the mod moving this if Indi isn't the correct forum)!
