BHUTAN

Bhutan Explorer

Nestled high in the Himalaya, Bhutan is a small kingdom that boasts pristine natural beauty and undiluted culture.

Visiting with Nomadic Expeditions, you can experience the country’s lush forests, view snow-capped peaks, explore ancient monasteries, and savor local cuisine.

Despite being the size of Switzerland and having a population of less than 800,000, Bhutan’s vibrant Buddhist culture—deeply rooted in centuries-old traditions—is one of its greatest attractions. Their unique approach to measuring national progress through Gross National Happiness has also brought it worldwide recognition.

For the Bhutanese, their country is Druk Yul, “Land of the Thunder Dragon,” and they proudly identify themselves as Drukpa.

Join us on this seamless and sustainable journey through enchanting Bhutan to connect with the full richness of this magical land.

Tour Grading: Easy to Moderate Touring

This is an easy to moderate touring trip, staying in the best available hotels and mountain lodges. Please note that road conditions in Bhutan leave a lot to be desired and the traffic can appear to be unregulated and horns are used more often than brakes. Sightseeing excursion can be exhausting and long (5-6 hours) thus giving the  tour a “moderate” rating. Bathroom facilities during sight-seeing excursions are limited  to the facilities at a local restaurant, which could be just an “out-house.”

Bhutanese cuisine is spicy non-vegetarian and vegetarian dishes. If you prefer not to eat spicy food every day, you can ask that they be prepared with “mild spices.” All hotels featured in this itinerary have restaurants that also offer “western/continental” dishes. Food on trek will be nutritious, safe but not necessarily a wide variety of choice.

Flexibility, a good sense of humor and an adventurous spirit are essential on this tour.
