The photographic opportunities on all trips are immense. The panoramic view of natural environment landscapes and rich biological resources, flora and fauna, fortresses, Stupas, traditional life style and different ethnic groups of people and traditional farming systems, snow-clad mountains etc are some of the opportunities for photography.

Most hotels in Bhutan are 2-3 star level and are referred to as Standard Hotels. A few luxury 4 & 5 star accommodations are also available (Paro, Thimphu, Punakha, Gangtey, Bumthang). The standard accommodations all offer the necessary facilities, and are properly maintained. Generally speaking, hotels in western Bhutan (Paro, Thimphu, Punakha, Wangdue) are better than the rest of the country. Accommodation establishments are more modest with fewer amenities in the more remote areas of central (Gangtey, Trongsa, Bumthang) and eastern Bhutan (Mongar, Trashigang, Trashiyangtse, Samdrup Jongkhar). Sometimes the best accommodation may be the only accommodation and a very modest one in that area especially in the central and eastern regions.

Dress neatly and modestly and wear full sleeved collared shirts (covered arms, no shorts or short skirts) and remove hats, caps, and sunglasses before entering the precincts of Dzongs (fortresses) or religious complexes. Due to the wide range of temperature and climatic conditions it is advisable to dress in layers.  For protection against cold, layered clothing is better than one or two thick garments.  Clothing should preferably be made from natural materials, which allow the body to breathe.  Bring comfortable, well-worn clothing, and plenty of underwear and socks.  If traveling in the cold season, bring two sets of silk vests and long johns, as they are warm and dry quickly after washing.
