Cheap travel and cheap tour package in Bhutan
Bhutan is considered as one of the most beautiful places on earth, which justifies the ever increasing number of tourists coming into the country.
Bhutan being the small country it is, does not have much natural resources which it could sell to offset the expenditure shelled out in developing the country. So, tourism has always been a great contributer to the economic development of the country.
Tourism in Bhutan is regulated by the government making it mandatory for every tourist visiting Bhutan to pay the same amount of fee for their visit irrespective of the tour operators they choose. There are more than hundred number of tour operators in the country, each of them having their own set of itenaries, cheap tour packages and so on.
The tariff for tourists visiting Bhutan set by the government is $200 per day(subject to change with the dollar value against the ngultrum) per person on a twin sharing basis. The fee covers all expenses such as hotels, buffet meals, transportation by bus or car within the country. Most tour operators have their own fleet of vehicles.
The hotels which are reserved based on the included price are deluxe hotels/resorts which are tourist friendly and hygienic.The food served is a mixture of Bhutanese, continental, chinese and indian cuisine.
There is no cheap tour package in Bhutan. There is only two different tarriffs that all tourists should pay. They are the off season tour package which is a little less expensive than the peak season tour package($200 per person per day).
Every tourist visiting Bhutan is required to come through a tour operator or travel agent and they are not allowed to come to Bhutan by themselves as in the case with travelling to other countries.
The travel agents handle everything from processing the visas to the ticketings and the setting up of itenaries. Some travel agents even offer customized travel itenaries.
Most tourists coming to Bhutan come in groups or as a two person couple.
During the peak season, prospective visitors are requested to book their tours months in advance as it allows for convenient and confirmed bookings in hotels and the flight tickets.
Tourists visiting Bhutan can enter Bhutan either via road from India, or by Drukair, the national airlines. However, the Bhutan government has strict regulations that tourists visiting Bhutan should atleast fly with Drukair once, be it either entry or exit.
The costs of travelling to Bhutan may seem expensive at first, by looking at the $200 per day tariff, but if you think of all the services that you will be getting for that amount, it can be considered a very cheap tour package to Bhutan, well worth the money paid for the trip.
If you are the one who is not looking for cheap tour package Bhutan offers visitors the options to visit the enchanted country in luxury.
