Bhutan Overland

After a successful first edition, Bhutan Overland by Adventures Overland returns for its second season, bringing back one of the most unique self-driving experiences in the Himalayas. As pioneers of self-drive expeditions across continents, Adventures Overland continues to redefine the way people explore destinations, not from a window seat, but from behind the wheel.

This journey is designed for those who want more than just a Bhutan trip. It is an experience that takes you across changing landscapes, from the foothills of India to the high mountain passes of Bhutan and further into its remote eastern regions. With a convoy of like-minded travellers, expert on-ground support, and carefully curated routes, Bhutan Overland blends adventure with cultural immersion in a way few journeys can.

Bhutan Road Trip & Self-Drive Experience

This Bhutan road trip is not just about reaching destinations, but about the journey itself. From crossing into Bhutan at Phuentsholing to navigating scenic mountain roads, every stretch offers something new. Drive across iconic high-altitude passes like Chele La Pass (3,822 meters) and Dochu La Pass (3,140 meters), hike to the legendary Tiger’s Nest Monastery, and explore valleys like Haa, Punakha, and Phobjikha.

For those who want to experience this journey without driving, a chauffeur-driven option starting from Paro is also available. Travel in a comfortable Toyota Land Cruiser Prado with an experienced driver, allowing you to sit back and fully take in the landscapes while still being part of the same overland experience.

What makes this journey truly special is the route into Eastern Bhutan, covering regions like Bumthang, Mongar, and Trashigang, areas that remain largely untouched by mainstream tourism. This adds a rare depth to your Bhutan itinerary, making it more than just a standard holiday package.
