About this trip

Regarded as one of the last Shangri-Las in the Himalayas due mainly to its remoteness; Bhutan lies in a relatively unexplored pocket of Asia. To preserve its natural beauty, Bhutan has heavy restrictions in place regarding the number of travellers visiting this country. Join this exclusive Best of Bhutan tour and discover the spectacular world of the Himalayan Mountains and forested hills, where magnificent fortresses still command the hilltops.
