Explore Bhutan and its rivers on a trip that will prove to be both an exciting rafting opportunity as well as a unique cultural experience. Located east of Nepal and south of Tibet, Bhutan is full major river systems that carved deep gorges and created vastly untouched natural environments. These rivers are fed by snow run-off of the Himalayas and much of the forestry and wildlife remains pristine and intact thanks to the national religion of Vajrayana Buddhism, which honors nature and the sanctity of life.
