    Punakha Dzong, Punakha, Bhutan

    The perfect complement to India’s rich colours and whirlwind of flavours, we’re delighted to introduce a trio of tours to Nepal and Bhutan. These enchanting destinations offer a slower rhythm of life, steeped in spirituality, natural beauty, and living tradition. Our itineraries reward travellers keen to venture off the beaten path with an extraordinary experience amid sacred peaks, quiet valleys, and age-old customs.

    Boudhanath Stupa, Kathmandu, Nepal

    In Nepal, watch the sun rise over legendary Himalayan peaks, admire Pokhara’s alpine panoramas, and soak up the sights and sounds of Kathmandu, where ancient stupas – including the iconic Boudhanath, a centre of Tibetan Buddhist ritual and devotion – stand beside lively markets.

    Bhutan offers tranquil valleys and timeless traditions – here crimson-robed monks chant in cliff side monasteries and prayer flags flutter on the mountain breeze. Marvel at golden spires and ornate architecture, and behold the gravity-defying Tiger’s Nest Monastery, clinging to the cliffs of Paro.

    Our tours evoke the authentic spirit of both Bhutan and Nepal; accompanied by knowledgeable local Tour Managers, you’ll gain a deeper understanding of these extraordinary places. For those who wish to experience even more, two itineraries also include time in India – creating a seamless journey between vibrant energy and Himalayan calm.

    Whichever path you choose, you’re promised not just remarkable sights, but rare moments of wonder and discovery. Explore our new itineraries and let the adventure begin.
