Why take this tour?

Straight roads hardly exist, and we've counted an average of 10 curves per kilometer. The roads are quite empty, and the capital city of Thimphu doesn't even have a traffic light! Our motorcycle tour of Bhutan takes us along small mountain roads in varying conditions, and the ride never gets boring – beautiful landscapes soon cure us of the urge to ride hard. We kick back and savor the pure joy of cruising on our Bullet motorcycles at a relaxed 30 to 70 kph. Our Bhutan bike tour is structured to allow enough time to get to know the countryside and the residents of the villages along the roads.

About operator:

This is a 15 day tour that will take us through some very bad roads and high passes but the route is very interesting and with amazing visuals. Riding days will be long and tough sometimes and there will be a lot and lots of dust, some mud and slush too. The stay will be very good at places and then down to rudimentary. And in some places there will be no electricity and certainly no WiFi. Lunch will mostly be on some ‘Dhabas’ along the way and a couple of times, we will have “Packed!!” lunch from the village and will possibly eat near a stream or river.We prefer the bikes to be of the offroad/dual purpose types as this is the terrain for them.We try and involve the local community and the villagers in some way or the other.be it making traditional lunch for the way, cultural troupes showcasing some of their cultures, engaging a local fisherman to fish and cook at the camps, contributing towards the upkeep of a village school
