We promote responsible tourism in Bhutan.
BIEBS Holidays International promotes responsible travel in Bhutan. Respecting the ecology and environment as enshrined in the constitution of our country. Our Government policy mandates that 70 % the country’s land needs to be under green cover. We believe that the visitors to Bhutan experience the surreal beauty and green wilderness without trying to plunder it. Avoiding wastes that we usually tend to create along the trekking trails, littering all along which is not proper. At Yak Holidays keep these issues on top of everything. We even clean the trekking and hiking trails in Bhutan twice a year. The yaks and horses that we hire during the treks will keep the sustainability of the locals. We also try to explain and educate the travelers the local nomadic tradition of the high himalayas. The travelers are informed of the prevalent local laws and culture, to respect nature and the local environment.
