Beatific Bhutan Self Drive - Road Tour

Video

Trip Overview

The last great Himalayan Kingdom, cloaked in an aura of mystery and blessed with immense natural beauty, Bhutan is a delightful revelation. Devoted to sustainable tourism practices, the Bhutanese are proud of their humane approach that lays more stress on happiness and well-being of its inhabitants as well as visitors. A road trip through Bhutan will introduce you to a world that wears both its mantles with ease; one of traditional Buddhist cultural values, and another that welcomes contemporary development with open arms. Crossing the border to Bhutan from Siliguri in West Bengal, our sojourn into the ‘Land of the Thunder Dragon’, will begin in Phuentsholing and take us to Paro, Thimphu, Punakha, Phobjikha Valley, Bumthang, Mongar and Samdrup Jongkhar before crossing back into India via the city of Guwahati in Assam.
