Bhutan

Samtse

A southwestern border dzongkhag of tea gardens and lower-elevation forest, bordering West Bengal, India. Samtse lies in southern Bhutan, a warmer, lower-lying region of forest, farmland and border towns. Highlights include Samtse town, Dorokha region and Southern border trade routes. A visit here is easiest with a local guide, who can explain what you are seeing, open doors that are hard to find alone and handle the permits Bhutan requires. We include Samtse in custom itineraries on request. Every journey is built around a licensed guide, a private vehicle and carefully chosen hotels or homestays — tell us your dates and interests and we will plan Samtse into a trip that fits.
