Locally known as Druk Yul, the Kingdom of Bhutan is a landlocked country in South Asia that is more popular as the happiest country of Asia.

Guided by a prophecy, he fled religious persecution to Tibet and cultivated a separate Bhutanese identity. With this tour, you get to see some of the most unique, beautiful and famous places of Bhutan such as the capital city Thimpu, Punakha and Paro. This trip brings you closer to the spectacular mountain scenery, natural beauty and dramatic monasteries that showcase the country at its magnificent best.

Bhutan is well-known for some of the best and most exciting trekking trails in the Himalayan region. Many tourists visit Bhutan to explore the untouched beauty of the mountains – best experienced on foot. The Druk Path trek is one of the finest short trekking routes in Bhutan. Connecting the valleys of Paro and Thimpu, the trail leads over high passes on an ancient trading route, passing through spectacular rhododendron forests, alpine yak pastures and beautiful lakes stocked with snowy mountain trout. The trek begins via apple orchards and pine forests past a ruined Jele Dzong (fortress), which sits on a high grassy ridge overlooking breathtaking views of Mount Jumolhari to the north. In the next four days, we climb above the tree line and cross several passes including the Phume La (4210m). En route, we come across amazing clear mountain lakes, a number of yak herder’s camps and the splendid view of the Himalayas. At the end of the trail, descend through the pine and juniper forests via Phadjoding monasteries and head to the capital of Bhutan.

Djordi is INCREDIBLE! He is very a thoughtful and passionate CEO. He was very engaged and really did his best to ensure that we had a great experience. We were very lucky to have Tschering join our tour for some training too and he added to the great experience. We had such a cohesive group, our driver was good, the itinerary was well paced and overall, everything was well organized. The only thing I might change would be to extend a hike (or two). Overall 10/10. Thank you!

This was the best trip I have taken in my 50 years of existence on this planet. And I have travelled to a lot of places. The time to visit Bhutan is now, before it is overrun by tourists and Gadventues does an amazing job of making your visit one to remember.

Can't fault the trip or the service. Everything was taken care of and there were plenty of "extra surprises" which I don't want to mention and ruin for future travellers. But it was the little extra things and the attention to detail and the excellent service that really made this trip stand out. The Bhutanese went above and beyond. Great trip!

The Wonders of Bhutan tour was truly exceptional. The itinerary was well planned to give us the fullest possible experience of this culturally rich and geographically challenging country. Our guide gave us insights into the local culture not found in guide books. It will remain one of my most memorable trips.
