All questions
  • C

    Craig

    Asked on July 28th, 2025

    He is wondering if this trip could be feasible. The helicopter aspects of the trip are key as it reduces the timeline of the overall trip.

    Tour Details
    Transport
    • We are not able to do any tailormade tours. We also do not offer private tours for single travelers we do have a private groups team but the tour would need to be a minimum of 8 people.

  • H

    Hannah

    Asked on June 19th, 2025

    Visa costs not included right? 100USD/day? On booking shared room but there won't be a roommate: do I have to pay the Single Room rate then or will it be the shared room rate in every case?

    Accommodation
    Single supplement
    Visa
    • The Bhutanese visa is included in the tour price and organised by us. You can add a single supplement if you want to guarantee a single room. Otherwise you would be paired with another solo/odd traveller of the same gender. There might be a case where you get your own room by default if there are no odd/solo travellers. If this happens, you will not have to pay for this, you would get it by default.

    Asked on February 24th, 2025

    Do I contact you for the flights as well? Also, I assume that you can help us with the visa?

    • National Geographic Journeys with G AdventuresOperatorWritten February 2025

      We are unable to assist with flights. You can only book flights to Bhutan through Bhutan airlines. Once the booking is confirmed, we will forward information in regards to obtaining your visa/Letter of invitation. If you want to book extra nights, you will need to book it together with your tour, so it can be included in the invitation letter.
