This tour visits the main valleys of Bhutan, travelling over mountain passes that offer stupendous views. There is no trekking, but we explore the towns on foot and also enjoy some gentle village walks. We meet villagers and weavers in their own homes, and travel right into Bhutan’s interior.
Many years of isolation have left the Kingdom of the Thunder Dragon a unique place. The towns of Bhutan are dominated by enormous monastery-fortresses, or dzongs, that have stood for centuries and are still in use today. The architecture is unlike anything else found in the Himalaya – houses are painted with magic symbols to keep out evil spirits, national dress is commonly worn and the “Dragon” sect of Buddhism thrives. Bhutan is also renowned for producing the highest quality fabrics in the Himalaya.
We explore all aspects of Bhutanese culture on this captivating tour.

How was Hiuchuli Treks started?
After many years in the travel industry, Mr. Tenzing Norbu Sherpa started Hiuchuli Treks in the summer of 1988. Since then, it has expanded & continues to do, with the ever-changing trekking & tour experiences in the Himalayas. Mr. Tenzing’s travel enthusiasm started back in 1975 when Nepal was just opening its borders for travelers to explore the Himalayas & experience its unique heritage. His interest in the Himalayas led to him to organize many French, Swiss & American adventure groups to visit Nepal. Furthermore, ascents to Mt Everest & other 8000 meter peaks were organized. In the ’90s, he started a venture into aviation with Skyline Airways & other tourism experiences.
