Picture this: eight unforgettable nights in Bhutan’s Himalayan outback, chasing the elusive Golden Mahseer—a fish so illusive, it could probably negotiate your next big tech deal. But don’t worry, this challenge is a lot more relaxing than anything in the boardroom, with the added bonus of breathtaking views and crystal-clear rivers.
Our expedition offers more than just a fishing expedition—it’s a complete reset. You’ll be casting your line into pristine waters where the Mangde Chhu and Drangme Chhu rivers meet, surrounded by over 65% forest cover in one of the greenest, most untouched corners of the globe. And you won’t be roughing it, either—after a day spent outsmarting Mahseer, you’ll retreat to deluxe accommodation that feel more like a spa than a fishing lodge.
This isn’t some ordinary getaway; it’s designed for the adventurer who loves a challenge but also appreciates the finer things in life. And with over 20 years of expertise guiding ardent anglers, we know exactly how to balance adrenaline-pumping action with mindful relaxation. You’ll be learning from seasoned pros while staying in a setting that’s nothing short of luxurious.
With prime fishing seasons in March, April, and October, this trip fits perfectly into your schedule. Whether you’re looking to recharge after a tough quarter or simply seek a more exclusive adventure, this expedition will leave you refreshed, relaxed, and ready to impress with stories of your Himalayan triumphs.
