Insurance:
The purchase of medical, baggage and trip cancellation insurance is strongly recommended from your country of origin before the commencement of your journey. It should also cover the cost of rescue operations by helicopter in the event of an evacuation and the reimbursement of non-refundable air tickets if possible.
Booking Conditions:
It helps to book at least 60 days in advance of your planned arrival enabling us time to process your documents. The infrastructure in BHUTAN can handle only a limited number of tourists. The months of APRIL, MAY, OCTOBER and NOVEMBER have many festivals and celebrations with tourism at its height during these periods. We can process with a minimum of 2 weeks notice but the longer you are able to book in advance, the easier the process is. Full payment of your tour should reach us not later than two weeks in advance of your arrival,as we need to outlay a considerable amount of your tour cost prior to your arrival.

Tour programs booked and subsequently cancelled, the following cancellation charges apply.
Before 45 days: No charge
Within 21-44 days: 20%
Within 14-20 days: 40%
