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. 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 6 September 2024 (Thimphu Festival) and 2 April 2025 (Paro Festival).



Please refer to the alternative Thimphu Festival itinerary for departures starting in Kathmandu on 11 September 2024 and 30 September 2025 (Thimphu Festival).
