Testimonials

davidrOn, IL

“I am glad to share my sincere gratitude for the amazing tour guide, Tandin Gyeltshen (or in short “Tandin”) from Bhutan Twin Travels, who led our group on a 10-day trip to Bhutan. Tandin was exceptional in every way, and we could not have asked for a better guide to introduce us to the beauty, culture, and people of Bhutan."

Trip Pricing & Details

What is SDF?

We, the Bhutanese people, take seriously our responsibilities to each other and our environment. From our reopening on September 23, 2022, we ask each visitor to Bhutan to actively and meaningfully contribute to our kingdom’s preservation and progress.

The Sustainable Development Fee (SDF) enables investment in transformative programs that sustain our cultural traditions, protect our environment, upgrade infrastructure, and build our resilience. Critically, it supports the creation of training, mentorships, and further education to create long-term opportunities for our young people. Your contribution is not only a critical investment but a gesture of belief in our ambitions and our capacity to achieve them. We believe the SDF will create additional value for guests who come to Bhutan rather than an additional cost. Another way of looking at the SDF is a ‘pay it forward’ concept, whereby you will ensure that future visitors to Bhutan will get an as good or even better experience.

Responsibility, transparency, dependability, and trust are at the core of which we are and of our partnership with our visitors. As we build our nation, we strive to be accountable in our dealings and provide clarity on how the SDF will be used.
