Tours
personalized assistance… your guide
Touring in Bhutan is controlled by a government intent on mindfully opening to the rest of the world as it preserves its pristine natural beauty and eco-systems, its ancient cultural and spiritual practices. Phurba is intent on making your trip a once-in-a-lifetime experience.
All visitors to Bhutan must be accompanied by a guide, who greets you at Bhutan’s only airport and is with you each step of the way. Phurba is a native of the Punakha and Thimphu districts, and part of our trip includes a visit with his mother at their family farm, where we taste regional dishes and soak in a hot stone bath, one of Bhutan’s most relaxing customs.
Phurba has been guiding tours and treks in Bhutan for more than two decades. His years of experience and gently persuasive way often result in closed doors being opened for our group. Each tour with Phurba is custom-designed to meet the curiosity and special interests of the group, which may be contemporary art, or medicine, or elementary education, or archery, which is Bhutan’s national sport.
College-educated and a resident part of the year in the United States, Phurba is ideally suited to anticipating and meeting your needs and wants. His love for and knowledge of his country insure that your journey through Bhutan will be an unforgettable one.
