Your Next Big Bhutan Break

Adventure Travel in Bhutan

Bhutan’s arresting landscapes would be enough to satisfy any ardent traveller. While white water rafting and kayaking are the ideal means of taming the untamed waves, any stretch of highway or farm road that takes you across hills and mountains in the background is made for mountain biking.

Understanding theme-based festivals

Seek more than a vacation? Find Bhutan. This tiny nation offers more than mountains. It offers connection. In contrast, to add vigour and a meaningful experience to our visitors' escapism, we have added select, experiential, theme-based festivals that celebrate "regional diversity," as synonymous with James Hilton's novel "The Last Shangri-La," in a more modern setting. Bhutan truly has something for ardent and arduous travellers who love veritable adventures.
