13-Nights Nepal & Bhutan Photo Expedition

A Visual Immersion in Nature & Culture in Two Historic Himalayan Kingdoms

Combining jungle wildlife safaris and tranquil mountain sojourns, this unusual itinerary offers photographers a mosaic of diverse geography and cultures in two adjacent but very different Asian countries. In the shadow of the world's highest peaks, Nepal's lowland plains hold captivating animal subjects, including one-horned rhinos, sloth bears and leopards that prowl the subtropical forests. Next door in Bhutan, the "Land of the Thunder Dragon," photograph alpine panoramas, meadows dotted with grazing yaks, clear rushing rivers and ancient monasteries. Dedicated to preserving its deep Buddhist traditions and pristine landscapes, tiny Bhutan is a global conservation leader proud to be not only carbon-neutral but carbon-negative, sustaining ecological diversity through native forest restoration. Add in historic highlights and contemporary cultural scenes in the Kathmandu Valley, a UNESCO World Heritage Center, and you have a photography adventure sure to engage all your senses and creativity.
