Special Interest & Custom-made Tours

study of plant species and other botanical interests, bicycling tours, and specific aspects of religion and culture.
Tours can be arranged centered around religious festivals such as the Tshechus and pilgrimages to important power spots or kneys
around the country.
Bicycling
Bhutan's mountainous terrain offers a fascinating adventure for
bicycling enthusiasts. The route along Bhutan's west-east highway
(approx. 800 kms) is an exciting route with challenges of surmounting a
new pass over 3000m every other day. The highways, winding up and down
with drops, at times, of thousands of feet, keep one too high on
adrenaline to feel the slightest pinch of monotony. As one progresses
along the route, there is a discernible change in the flora and
temperature when one gradually descends from the alpine heights into the
temperate regions of Punakha, Wangdiphodrang, Mongar, Trashigang and
Samdrup Jongkhar. All along the route, the interruption by picturesque
and almost medieval villages and towns rich in cultural spots, make a
welcome diversion.
