Bhutan is one of our planet's great hot spots of biodiversity and one of the more pristine landscapes to be found anywhere. Lying in the heart of the eastern Himalayas and spanning almost 24,000 feet of altitude, most of the country remains cloaked in primeval forest. Although it is a temperate-zone country with an area about the size of Vermont and New Hampshire combined, Bhutan contains almost 800 bird species (with a high number of virtual endemics) and 2,000 species of flowering plants, including 50 rhododendrons. We will enjoy all the delights of Bhutan’s natural world, as well as the cultural highlights and festivals in this delightful country.
