However, the fact is that traveling to Bhutan is not at all expensive if you understand the logic and facts behind the fixed rates. It would cost your minimum daily tariff of USD 200 for exploring this Land of Thunder Dragon in off season and USD 250 in the peak season, as fixed by Tourism Council of Bhutan. However, this amount includes all your expenses, such as lodging, all food arrangements, entrance fees to various cultural destinations and programs, luxury transportation, driver, and guides and porters, even when you travel solo with your own itinerary.
