Bhutan from West to East
Bhutan from East to West
touring - 14 days
This tour is designed to get you under the skin of Bhutanese society. Not only will we take you right through the Kingdom to the rarely visited far eastern provinces, but your Bhutanese guide will organize visits to weaving centers, villages, monasteries and any special events and festivals that might be taking place at the time. There is no hard walking involved, but you will have many opportunities to stretch your legs, walking through small towns and villages along the way. Our skilled driver will safely navigate you along the famously twisting mountain road, Bhutan's only connection from East to West, and over spectacular passes. Weather conditions during the winter and rainy season can make this tour an unpredictable, challenging adventure, where bringing along a good sense of humour can be of great advantage.
Do not consider this tour if you suffer easily from car sickness. Bhutan's roads famously present you with a bend in the road every 9 seconds at least! Most tour operators happily ignore to warn their clients in advance simply for the sake of business. A Bhutan road journey can be a tremendous thrill to some but utter hell to others.
