While bringing our clients the seamless travel experience to Bhutan, we lay our eyes on long-term and sustainable Bhutan tours and treks. We do it by promoting eco-travel and responsible travel in Bhutan. By preferring using local service, like Bhutanese staff and Bhutanese restaurants and hotels, or working with local Bhutanese for travel purposes, we created many job opportunities for locals (both directly and indirectly, till now).
“Leave only the footprint in Bhutan and bring back the great memory”. In the long run, we wish more people can see the incredible beauty of Bhutan- The Thunder Dragon Kingdom and enjoy its unspoiled landscape as it was.

Buddhist reality is profoundly ecological, and Buddhism itself is an ecological religion. It powerfully expresses human identification with nature. Buddhists believe that all things, including humans, exist by their interrelationship with all other parts of nature. To think of one’s self as isolated from the rest of nature is being unrealistic. Also in line with the 3rd Pillar of GNH (Gross National Happiness) conservation of the natural environment (Bhutan’s constitution: 60 percent forest coverage, green economy).
Giving the facts that Bhutanese love and respect for life and the natural world. To minimize the environmental impact we create although Bhutan at being the only Carbon Negative country in the world, we maintain the size of tour groups to have minimal impact on flora and fauna in an area. The necessary carbon emissions that we generate by our footprints of travel to the tourist destinations cannot be overlooked, and as a result, we regularly actively participate in carbon reduction or offset activities such as tree planting. Our tour guides, drivers, and logistic staff are all advised to dispose of all rubbish generated by themselves responsibly and recycle wherever feasible.
