Join us for an adventurous unexplored South Asia tour of Bangladesh, Bhutan and Nepal!
A land of rivers, Bangladesh has been completely off the radar when it comes to tourism, especially when compared to its neighbour, India. Bangladesh offers frantic action and the same kind of noise, colours and fragrance overload as India, only without the peddlers and the hordes of tourists.

You’ll journey from the capital city of Dhaka by overnight ferry to the village of Barishal where you’ll experience the largest floating market of Bangladesh, and a fascinating timber market operating on the banks of the many tiny rivers and canals that make up the mystical southern region.
Throughout the Bhutan section of the trip, we will visit the capital city of Thimphu and take in all of its museums and monasteries. We’ll then head to Punakha to visit the Temple of Fertility, built by the Divine Madman as well as other masterpieces of Buddhist architecture. It wouldn’t be a tour of Bhutan without visiting its most impressive building, the Tiger’s Nest Monastery, built on the flank of a mountain near Paro.
We’ll then fly across to Kathmandu, passing Mt. Everest which is clearly visible from our Druk Air flight, arriving at the capital city of Nepal which was recently greatly damaged by a huge earthquake. Its palaces, temples and markets are still amongst the most iconic in Asia. Nepal is also the country which most recently scrapped its monarchy and became a republic.
From the Islamic culture in Bangladesh, through the Buddhists in Bhutan, and finishing with the Hindus in Nepal. Our South Unexplored South Asia tour is one wild ride.
If you want to see more of Bangladesh, one of the most underrated countries that we know, join us a few days before the tour starts on our Unseen Bangladesh Extension, taking you to the Sundarbans National Park.
