Inimitable, captivating and serene
Blissfully remote and dominated by jaw-dropping natural beauty, the Kingdom of Bhutan sits between the mighty Himalayas, China and some of the most isolated areas of India. It remains one of the world’s most mysterious and undiscovered destinations. Dramatic scenery, winding mountain passes, snow-capped peaks, fluttering prayer flags and vibrant rhododendrons are the backdrop for a colourful culture steeped in tradition and the incredible kindness of its gracious, gentle people.
The idea of happiness and wellbeing as the goal of development has always been a part of Bhutanese political philosophy. It was not pursed as a deliberate policy goal until His Majesty the Fourth King of Bhutan introduced Gross National Happiness (GNH) to define the official development paradigm for Bhutan.

“Highlights – conversations with Jennifer and our guides, the gentleness of the Bhutanese people themselves, including our very engaging guides, visits to other monasteries, lunch at the farm and trying the printing to make the prayer flags, the hiking and majesty of the diverse snow-capped mountains, and the food and accommodation. A kind of bliss all round.”
