Seeing is believing.

Nevertheless, the mandate the Royal Government of Bhutan places on tourist to choose their tour package prior to even entering the kingdom might stand in your way in terms of choosing which tours might be best suited for you. Hence, Bhutan Pelyab Tours would like to spare this blog post in the effort to bring to you the top 5 tours to Bhutan.
