Can I join on my own?
Yes. Our fixed departures are a natural fit for solo travellers who want to explore with others. Solo travellers stay in a single room, and a single room supplement applies.
What does the land tour price include?
Your land tour includes the guided itinerary, accommodation, local transport, licensed guide, driver, meals and scheduled sightseeing stated in the itinerary. Applicable government charges and the Sustainable Development Fee are included where stated. Always check the individual tour page for the final list of inclusions.
Are flights to Bhutan included?
No, flights are not included in the land tour price. Druk Asia is an official Drukair representative, so our team can arrange the most suitable connection for you after you book.
How does the Bhutan visa process work?
Most international visitors need a visa before travelling, and Druk Asia guides you through the application and the documents required. Indian nationals need a permit instead, and different SDF rates apply.
How active are these tours?
Our cultural tours are easy to moderate and include walks such as the Tiger's Nest hike. Trekking departures are moderate or harder and suit travellers comfortable with consecutive walking days. Each tour's activity level is shown in the comparison above, and our team is happy to advise.
Is the Tiger's Nest hike included?
The Tiger's Nest hike is included in many of our Bhutan itineraries, including the 7 Day Essential Bhutan journey. Check the individual itinerary for the exact programme, and speak to our team if you have mobility concerns or prefer an alternative activity.
What should I pack?
Comfortable walking shoes, warm layers, rain and sun protection, personal medication, and modest clothing for temples and dzongs. Trekking guests receive a detailed equipment list before departure.
Should I buy travel insurance?
Travel insurance is not currently required for entry, but it is strongly recommended. Trekking guests should check their policy covers hiking at the relevant altitude and emergency evacuation.
What happens after I book?
You'll receive your booking confirmation by email. Our team then contacts you about visa documents and flights, and sends your final itinerary, hotel details and guide contact before departure.
I'm an Indian national. Is the price the same?
No. Indian nationals pay a different, regional SDF rate, so please contact Druk Asia for your price instead of booking online.
What if my preferred dates are not available?
We can plan a private Bhutan tour instead. Your travel dates, accommodation level, interests and pace can be customised around your preferences.
