The prestigious New York Times list of 46 Places to Go in 2013 is hot off the press, with Seven Skies favourite Bhutan coming in at number 5. The New York Times was enamoured with the luxury outposts, exquisite monasteries and lush national parks. We couldn’t agree more. Here is our list of the top 5 Bhutan experiences that keep us coming back for more.

Escape, Australia’s largest and most popular weekend travel read reaching an audience of millions across the country, delivered an early holiday inspiration for travellers looking for something extraordinary when it featured the incredible Seven Skies Borneo experience in a rich and exciting double page spread that hit the news stands just before Christmas.

Bhutan lingers long in your memory after you have gone. And one of the experiences that lingers longest is finding yourself at a tsechu festival. You’ll likely be one of only a handful of tourists among families of local Bhutanese dressed in their finest traditional dress watching monks in colourful costumes performing time-honoured dances. One of the most atmospheric and authentic experiences on offer. Plan your Bhutan journey to coincide with a festival, like the upcoming Punakha Tsechu Festival in February.

Extraordinary journeys deserve an extraordinary website, and so we are extremely proud to introduce our brand new creation. Produced in collaboration with the dynamic and cutting-edge Australian creative agency, R&B Creative, we are thrilled to be able to bring our experiences to life in such a stunning, fresh and engaging way.
