Nepal & Bhutan Discoverer12 days - from $3140Travel through the magical lands of Nepal and Bhutan, the mountain abode of the gods The mighty Himalaya straddles some of the world’s most spectacular countries with a vast treasure of snow-capped peaks, lush green valleys and old world charm. The intricate stone and lattice work of Nepal’s old towns are steeped in centuries of religious and political intrigue, while the epic Annapurna Range forms a majestic backdrop to its terraced valleys and the lowlands of Chitwan National Park, home to magnificent big game wildlife. Bhutan has long been an enigma due to its high mountain isolation. Visitors are only now beginning to discover the wonders of this magical kingdom, where quality of life is measured in 'gross national happiness', buildings cling improbably to cliffs and rural life remains all but untouched by modern life. With its Buddhist monasteries, mountains, valleys, lakes and secluded hamlets, beautiful, spiritual Bhutan is a fitting finale to this incredible journey. Highlights
