Introduction
In Bhutan, the Land of the Thunder Dragon, Buddhist traditions, peaceful monasteries and close-knit local communities come together. Travelling around the country means not only to see famous places, but also to respect its culture, environment and local way of life. It is important for travellers who are part of Bhutan Motorcycle Tours to understand the local customs and travel guidelines.
Visitors should be respectful at temples, monasteries, dzongs and other sacred sites and modest clothing, quiet behaviour and appropriate photography are important. Bhutan also places a great emphasis on the protection of its natural environment, so travellers should avoid littering, disturbing wildlife or damaging natural and cultural sites.
Motorcycle travelers should respect local traffic rules, carry necessary documents and keep themselves informed about the prevailing vehicle, permit and guide requirements. These simple guidelines help riders to travel responsibly and enjoy Bhutan’s remarkable roads, landscapes, culture and communities.
