Bhutan holidays
Known as the ‘Kingdom of the Thunder Dragon’ by its people, Bhutan is a
beautiful and profoundly spiritual country with striking mountains,
vibrant Buddhist festivals and a fascinating traditional way of life.
Whether you go on a cultural tour of Bhutan or a trekking holiday into
its hidden valleys, Mountain Kingdoms is the Himalayan specialist with
the expertise to give you an unforgettable experience and offers the very best cultural tours of Bhutan, trekking holidays and tailor made holidays to Bhutan.
Our walking and trekking holidays in Bhutan will take you deep into the isolated
mountains and valleys of the country. Our high mountain treks, including
the Hidden Kingdom Trek, focus on trekking amidst the highest peaks and passes in Bhutan;
other trekking holiday routes stray off-the-beaten-track, following old
trade and smuggling routes rarely visited by foreigners.
Tours in Bhutan typically revolve around one of the country’s many
fascinating Buddhist festivals with amazing displays of national
celebration and religious devotion. Our Bhutan tours also give you a
unique opportunity to visit remote villages and experience the
traditional Bhutanese way of life.
Whatever you want from your visit to this unique country, Mountain
Kingdoms will have a trek or tour for you, and, if we don’t, we can
always help you to design your own! Alongside our standard itineraries,
we also offer Tailor Made holidays to Bhutan, allowing us to create the
perfect trip to suit your needs. Whether you take a trekking holiday
along Bhutan’s ancient trade routes, climb the highest mountains,
explore remote villages or take a tour of Bhutan’s main cultural centres
and sights, a trek, tour or Tailor Made holiday in Bhutan will take you
right to the heart of the Kingdom of the Thunder Dragon.
Mountain Kingdoms has been organising cultural tours and walking and trekking holidays to Bhutan for more than 30 years, so we know the country inside out.
Bhutan treks, walking holidays and cultural tours offer a unique insight into the Kingdom of the Thunder Dragon, the most mysterious of all the Himalayan Kingdoms.
Bhutan trekking or tours will take you on a journey through the country's ancient history. It is a story of a struggle for power up until the late 19th century when the old orders were swept away and a hereditary monarchy was established in Bhutan. Treks and tours through the spectacular, country are the best ways to explore Bhutan - one of the most fascinating places on earth.
With its spectacular location nestled in the Himalaya between Tibet and India, our Bhutan trekking trips, walking holidays and cultural tours will take you into one of the most intriguing countries of the modern world. As well as awe-inspiring mountain vistas, a Bhutan trek will afford you the opportunity to experience first hand the legendary hospitality and open hearted happiness of the local people.
For an authentic taste of culture, a Bhutan trekking holiday or tour can coincide with one of the country's colourful Budddhist festivals, and you can become a part of one of these unforgettable celebrations. Our tours include gentle strolls with plenty of time to enjoy the traditional culture and heritage for which Bhutan is renowned. You will spend time with local weavers in their own homes and explore the dominating monastery-fortresses (dzongs) present in many towns and villages. The Himalayan valleys are also home to some unique and fascinating flora and fauna which our Bhutan treks and tours will give you the opportunity to observe.
