About Us

Blue Poppy Tours and Treks was set up by Choki Dorji and Karma Wangdi. We chose the name because the blue poppy is the national flower of Bhutan. We are the only Bhutanese travel agency based in both Bhutan and the UK and we specialise in tailor made trips to Bhutan for independent travellers and small groups.

We have extensive experience of guiding western tourists around Bhutan and a good understanding of your needs and interests. Our mission is to offer you an exotic, yet comfortable, travelling experience in our homeland, based on what you want to see and do. Between us we have explored every nook and cranny of the country, and we pride ourselves on our intimate knowledge of festivals, trekking routes and places of cultural and historical interest. All the guides we employ are fluent in English and have years of experience in Bhutan’s tourism industry.

We'll pull out all the stops for you, from helping you decide what kind of trip you’d like, sourcing that elusive Bhutanese textile, or even arranging archery lessons! To contribute to your holiday of a lifetime Blue Poppy has arranged an exclusive opportunity for you to spend a night with a host family in a farmhouse in Paro district where you can experience a taste of traditional Bhutanese village life at its purest.  You can also experience the restorative properties of a hot stone bath laid on for you by your hosts at Blue Poppy's request.
