Since to enter Bhutan, any tourist needs both Visa (US$40) and SDF (US$200 per person, per night), I'd like to know if these tours include in the final price both things and where I can read it.

Price includes both Visa fees, tour cost and including private vehicle and entrance fees. And if you want me to include the flight ticket then You need to pay extra 490 USD for the Flight ticket (Kathmandu to Paro and Return).
