Our Rafting and Cultural Tour of Bhutan was recognized in 2011 by Outside Magazine as one of the top ten Trips of the Year!
This trip combines rafting the pristine rivers of this tiny kingdom with visits to traditional Buddhist cultural sites. Every fall we take a handful of rafters to this fascinating country known as the last Shangri-La!
