Goway Travel is well known for their traditional Asia itineraries to the iconic sights in China, Japan and India. However, the leading North American wholesaler also offers lesser known destinations such as Bhutan.

“In Bhutan the attraction is that it is truly an “off the beaten path” destination due to it’s centuries of isolation, “ commented Goway’s Product and Marketing Manager for Asia, Doug Vogl. “This is a country where buying cigarettes is illegal, and tourism is equally unique. All visitors must travel on a pre-booked itinerary, which means you won’t find backpackers, or mass visitors.”

The cautious approach to tourism by the Kingdom of Bhutan ensures that the population, the environment and their culture remains unaffected by visitors. This means a truly authentic experience for Globetrotting travellers to the country.

Goway’s 8 Day Bhutan in Depth tour starts at $2359 CAD and starts at Thimphu, which resembles more of a rambling village than a capital city, and is home to the revered Bhutanese Royal Family. Travelling from Thimphu, visitors cross the Dochu La Pass with breathtaking views of the Himalayas and descend into the lush, tropical valley that brings you to Punakha and the Punakha Dzong, the winter residence of the monk body.

Another option for people with less time is the 4 Day Bhutan Interlude starting at $1199 CAD and provides visits to all the iconic sites of both Paro and Thimphu in a condensed version.
