- Philosophy of the Bhutan tour:
- Rates are different for the NRI & Foreign nationals. NRI clients have to take visa to travel to Bhutan.
- Bhutan is a very simple country yet very scenic. The itinerary is not filled with lot of sightseeing places because Bhutan is mainly famous for scenic beauty like mountains, valleys & the local culture to explore by the tourist.
- There are hilly drives involved during the tour.
- Due to hilly drives, the vehicles used here will not have overhead carriers to store the luggage. Luggage will be stored inside the car only.
- It is strictly advisable to travel light. 1 medium size bag & 1 carry bag per person is allowed as per the transport norms.
- Most of the hotels do not have light facility. Clients have to climb the stairs.
- Food at the hotels is basic, with local flavour & limited options available.
- Tempo traveller is not as comfortable as Innova.
- The Tempo traveller in this destination is modified as per the roads of this place & so the seats are narrow , Leg space is very less , seats are non-push back & the middle row is also narrow.
