Experience two vastly different sides of Asia in this extraordinary holiday. Step worlds away from your everyday in Bhutan, a mesmerically beautiful Himalayan country where peace and tradition pervade every aspect of life. Next, fly just a few hours into tropical Thailand, taking in its dynamic Northern cities, rolling green mountains and a little-known island escape.
Despite their differences, these two countries are in fact closely linked, both diplomatically and in their deep Buddhist roots. Discover the fascinating contrasts of Buddhism today, as well as the cultures, customs and glorious landscapes that define each kingdom.
This outdoorsy holiday would be particularly well-suited to those with an appetite for adventure and staggering scenery, either couples or curious families with older children.
Highlights include:
-
Hiking up to the dazzling Tiger’s Nest monastery, an astounding feat of Bhutanese architecture clinging to a sheer cliff face
-
White-water raft down a glacial river, marvelling at the paddy fields, forests and traditional buildings as you pass
-
Experience the delicious cuisine and verdant mountains of northern Thailand
-
Unwind on a hidden Thai beach, taking a canoe to hidden coves or swimming and snorkelling in the Andaman Sea
