Discover Bhutan

Bhutan is a fascinating Himalayan kingdom, characterised by isolated, high mountain valleys, incredible gravity defying architecture, and a unique national identity.

Long off limits to foreigners, ‘The Land of the Thunder Dragon’ saw its first tourists in 1974, its first domestic TV broadcasts and internet access in 1999. No longer an absolute monarchy, Bhutan remains a conservative Buddhist country, hard pressed between India and Chinese-occupied Tibet, fiercely independent and proud of its cultural heritage.

Visiting Bhutan today is akin to discovering a forgotten kingdom, somewhere that operates in a different way to the rest of the world and is distinctly circumspect about entering the modern age, and let’s face it, who can blame it?

Feedback from our Travellers

  • It is very quick to be connected to a person that can deal with any questions and efficiently, Guides and drivers are very helpful to everybody in the group. I have travelled with the company several times and they are now very good on all counts. I am particularly interested in tribal peoples and festivals and they have exceeded my expectations in the quality of the guides and the time spent making sure that a good experience is obtained.

  • Dechen was our representative. She was incredibly professional, but nice with it. WE thought we had really benefited as she enhanced the holiday greatly. It was my 65th birthday while I was out there and she arranged a cake for me, also she arranged 2 picnics which made a nice change from standard restaurants lunch. Her knowledge was excellent. As you are aware she also resolved our rather urgent visa issue. If only all representatives were as good as her. Not forgetting our driver, Chen Jo, who got us through roads that I certainly wouldn't have attempted and was helpful and pleasant.

Best Time to Visit

October to December is the ideal time to visit Bhutan as the air is clear and fresh with sunny skies. If you are interested in seeing the rare black-necked cranes, we recommend visiting the Phobjikha Valley between late October and mid-February.
