Traveleyes

Join Traveleyes to journey to one of the earth’s final frontiers, as we travel through the Himalayas to reach the thunder kingdom of Bhutan. Precariously perched mountainside monasteries teach mindfulness and meditation in the most serene of all settings. We will journey from Thimphu to Punakha, and on to Paro to discover the traditional way of life for the inhabitants of this hidden gem, nestled in the rugged snow-capped Himalayas. Either side of our foray into Bhutan we will be based in India’s second city of Kolkata. Locally, Kolkata is regarded as India’s intellectual, artistic and cultural capital and we will have the chance to visit its opulent temples from the decadent comfort of the luxurious Oberoi Grand Hotel.

The landscape of Kenya is one of the most diverse and awe-inspiring in all of Africa and is truly the jewel in the continent’s crown. Starting in the bustling metropolis of Nairobi we visit famed heritage sites such as Giraffe Manor, the vibrant Carnivore Café and the place of origin for ‘’Out of Africa.’’ Departing urbanity, we journey into the shadow of towering snow-capped Mount Kenya to visit traditional Masai tribes and sample local coffee. We then walk headlong through the land-shaping Great Rift Valley into the vast array of wildlife that populates the fertile watering holes and vast savannas of Kenya’s south, as we twin big game drives with intimate walking safaris, to get us closer to nature than ever before. Our final destination is the celebrated Masai Mara, as we conclude with ‘’big five’’ safari drives and a chance to survey the immensity of the Mara from above, from the basket of a hot air balloon.
