Hello and welcome to Bhutan Himalayan Tours and Treks. This website is your resource for learning about and planning your trip to Bhutan -- Asia's greatest kept secret.
Many people ask me what it is about Bhutan that makes it such a wonderful place to visit. How about never-ending mountains, deep lush valleys, peaceful Buddhist culture, friendly people, and unique Bhutanese architecture. Bhutan is a small country that has been able to maintain a very strong cultural and national identity. Bhutan is the place to go if you want to be surrounded by breathtaking scenery every moment of the day.
As a potential tourist there is one thing you should know. The Kingdom of Bhutan has adopted a very cautious approach to tourism in an effort to avoid the negative impact of tourism on the country's culture and environment. All tourists must travel on a pre-planned, pre-paid, guided tour through a registered tour operator in Bhutan or their counterparts abroad.
Please note you cannot travel in Bhutan on your own.
So why travel with Bhutan Himalayan Tours and Treks you ask?
- I will personally escort you from your departure city to Bhutan and back -- this will not be offered to you through the large tour operators
