A Terton is an individual who reveals or discovers ancient Buddhist relics or texts. True to our name, we at Terton Travel Bhutan aim to facilitate every one of our guests with a special experience of discovery and spiritual fulfillment while absorbing the culture and beauty of our heritage.
In 2005, Bhutan’s sole international actor and national icon, Kelly Dorji, had a dream about the term ‘Terton’. Today Kelly personally directs Terton Travel Bhutan and his team, consisting of some of the most experienced experts in Bhutanese hospitality.
In Bhutan Gross National Happiness is valued more than gross Domestic Product. So it’s no wonder that we choose to put service above price for all our guests.
In a world travel market where emphasis has been laid on price competition, we at Terton pride ourselves with being competitively service based at the approved standard tourist rates set by the Tourism Council of Bhutan. This means we work that much harder to prove that Terton spearheads Bhutanese hospitality, which is amongst the best in the world. Terton Travel Bhutan is licensed by the Tourism Council of Bhutan and offers all its packages at standard Government rates.
The Tourism Council of Bhutan is a Royal Government Agency monitoring all tourism activities in the country and also plans tourism policy and lays guidelines for tour operators.
What makes Terton Travel Bhutan unique in the travel industry, apart from having Kelly Dorji at the helm of things himself, is that we are innovative in our tours, specialize in customized tour building and are intensely respectful of our visitors’ privacy and spiritual well being.
