Why Visit? Why Now?
As the world becomes busier, less natural, and people become less connected, Bhutan exerts a pull of authenticity, uniqueness, freshness, peace and spirituality. It offers an exclusive and special experience to visitors.
Visitor numbers are deliberately kept low to limit the impact of tourism on the culture and environment, and recent changes to encourage independent travel, provide the opportunity to get off the well worn group itinerary path and experience the warmth of the Bhutanese and the wonder of their culture. At your own pace. To your own taste. explore more
