Hidden in a corner of the Himalaya, the secretive kingdom of Bhutan is an unforgettable destination with ancient traditions, spectacular mountain scenery and vibrant festivals. At these, hundreds gather to see monks in brightly coloured robes perform ritual dances. For several days there are masked dances and prayer meetings, and a general carnival atmosphere prevails. This extra-special departure takes in the Bhuddist Paro Festival, which pays tribute to Guru Rinpoche.



The spring departures visit Paro Festival, while the autumn departures take in Thimphu Festival.



Please note: This itinerary is valid for departures starting in Kathmandu on 2 April 2025 (Paro Festival).



See the Thimphu Festival itinerary for departures starting in Kathmandu on 30 September 2025 and 20 September 2026.
