Shrouded by the mighty Himalaya, the secretive kingdom of Bhutan is visited by few foreigners. Those who do go, however, bear witness to astonishing sights: cliff-perched Buddhist monasteries, still-alive ancient traditions and pristine landscapes fiercely protected by local laws. It takes a true insider to reveal the many wonders of the kingdom, and we know the best. So, join our tour leader for an unforgettable and immersive journey into a land few visit and even fewer truly explore as we do.
In Bhutan, there are many festivals throughout the year with rituals and masked dances. This itinerary doesn’t include any festivals, but we operate alternative itineraries where you can enjoy Paro Festival, Thimphu Festival, Trongsa Festival or the Black Crane Festival.

Great trip, and worth a visit to experience Bhutan and the festivals
This trip provides a fascinating insight into a little known destination. We loved it!
This is a trip of a lifetime to the most beautiful place on the earth. Such beauty from the people, the environment, the culture and from the expert care of the team who show you their fantastic country.
Bhutan is a beautiful country, the air is very fresh and the in the main is very clean - an antidote to Kathmandu!This is a trip that takes in the cultural highlights of Bhutan as well as letting you see and walk in the beautiful countryside.The people are friendly and welcoming - browsing the shops and markets is easy -if you have been to India you will know what I mean ! There is no hard sell!There is a fair ammount of travel but this is quite relaxing and there are plenty of stops.Food is always buffet style and becomes very monotonous - you could try asking for an a la carte menu and pay extra, otherwise it is noodles, rice, veg and, if you are not vegetarian some rather poor quality meat dishes - and you get this twice a day! My food highlight was a large bowl of scrambled eggs at the Tigers Nest! Take snacks!
Bhutan is a beautiful, peaceful country that is very much worth experiencing. The people, including and, in fact, especially our guide were lovely, helpful, genuine and gentle. The Tigers Nest is well worth the arduous trek up to and the Dzongs, nunneries and monestaries were all a privilege to see. In some ways the experience felt like going back in time.
