We are interested in the Kingdom in the Clouds tour. We like the mix of culture & hiking. I have a few questions. How many people are usually on the tour? Is it possible to customize the tour? Maybe adding a couple days to see the Bumthang valley?

As this trip is a private trip so you will be accompanied by your professional guide and licensed driver. We can add Bumthang if you extend 3 days more and make it as 14 days trip.
