Summary: We Bhutanese are proud of our age-old traditions and unique cultural heritages, and feel this cultural tour provides the ideal opportunity to share our culture with our guests. We will visit many historical sites on this trip, including the 7th century temples Jampa Lhakhang in Bumthang and Kichu Lhakhang in Paro. If possible it is best to time this trip in order to coincide with local festivals, offering a deeper understanding of the typical Bhutanese customs and lifestyle. And of course, a tour through Bhutan is filled with absolutely stunning scenery in every corner from east to west.
