Most flights to Bhutan go via Kathmandu or Delhi and therefore Nepal and India are natural choices of destination if you wish to extend your holiday. From Kathmandu you can unwind with a visit to one of Nepal’s wildlife parks, take a sightseeing tour in the Kathmandu Valley or even visit Lhasa in Tibet. From Delhi, the magnificent Taj Mahal is just a day trip away, or you can enjoy several days touring the splendid cities and Mogul places of Rajasthan. Since extensions may affect your international flight schedule you should consider booking these at the same time as your main holiday. We can assist with any arrangements such as extra hotel nights, transfers or internal flights that you may require. All extensions can be reserved during the online booking process.
