Bhutan Tours & Holidays

Bhutan measures its success by Gross National Happiness and by the end of your Intrepid tour, you’ll have contributed more than your fair share of smiles to the cause.

This tiny Himalayan kingdom does things differently. Having only been open to visitors for 45 years, Bhutan puts its environment, culture and wellbeing ahead of economics. This place absorbs more carbon than it creates and a Bhutan tour is perfect for trekkers, nature-lovers and Buddhist pilgrims. From the jaw-dropping Tiger’s Nest to the prayer halls of Gangte Goemba, you’ll experience moments – and people – that make happiness seem like the norm, not a pursuit.

Premium Bhutan

Lindsay · Traveled October 2023
Intrepid’s Premium Bhutan is excellent. With your guide, you get a very good education about the people and places that make this country so special. One leaves with a different, calmer and gentler mindset. Love that education, value of culture, and love of country are widespread. Feel very grateful to have visited this very special country where indeed Gross National Happiness is in action. L. Frey

Premium Bhutan

Alastair · Traveled October 2023
Bhutan is very different from any other country I've visited, in a positive way. Plan on at least 7 days to get around the different tourist areas and choose your time of year to fit best with your interests.
