Note

  • * Raahghar Supporting Property: A homestay / Small hotel chosen largely to be a part of an itinerary, and where necessarily the owners do not reside at all times. 
  • All the itineraries with Raahghar revolve around our homestays, however for our pre and post stays we take help of like minded hotels in the principle cities.
  • Letting us know a period of travel with flexible dates helps us to organise your holiday better owing to the limitation in the room inventory at the homestays.
  • Please refer to our inclusions and exclusions section for more details.
  • Please refer to the payment terms on the earlier page along with the booking procedures.
  • All the Bhutan properties can only be experienced through an itinerary which our team will be happy to help you plan.
