From Jaigaon to the Himalayas: Our Story

Born and raised in the border town of Jaigaon, our founder, Rakesh Sharma, dedicated his early years catering to travellers with a passion for travel as a guide for Bhutan.

As a travel and adventure enthusiast himself, Rakesh noticed a shift in the travel agency. As the year 2000 arrived, so did the rise of the middle class, which also meant an increase in the number of domestic and outbound travels.

However, he also realised that most of the tour agencies lacked a crucial element in their services – authenticity. He noticed just how impersonal the tour packages were, limiting the exploration of the growing number of travellers from India.

For years, he watched from the sidelines as travellers struggled with permits, missed some of the best hidden spots and got to explore the destination only on a surface level. His dream to make travel more accessible and immersive gave birth to RS Travels in 2008.

At RS Travel, we aim to make the Eastern Himalayas more accessible to travellers from across the globe. With our roots set in the border town of Jaigaon, we put our clients’ wishes at the heart of everything we do and cater to every traveller with equal attention.

Why You Must Visit Bhutan At Least Once in Your Life

Known to be one of the hidden utopias among seasoned travellers, Bhutan is a unique destination. While the world rushes towards technology and modernity, this country firmly upholds its traditions in every aspect of life. No matter how luxurious a destination, it is impossible to compete with the tranquil ambience, cultural awakening and spirituality offered by Druk Yul.

Here are some reasons you should visit Bhutan:

Stunning Natural Landscapes

The raw natural forms and crisp chilled air of Bhutan are worth experiencing at least once in your lifetime. As almost 70% of the country is covered in deep woods, it can be the perfect escape for nature enthusiasts and fill your hunger to reconnect with nature.

Ancient Culture & Sacred Monasteries

Every village in Bhutan has a story waiting to be covered, which weaves through the ancient monasteries, ruins and rapid rivers flowing by. The fluttering prayer flags, echoing mantra chants and chilly weather are ideal for spending in self-reflection

Happiest Country on Earth

Rather than focusing on economic indicators like GDP, the Butanaes government focuses on the concept of Gross National Happiness. This unique philosophy reflects the communal harmony and warmth of the locals and makes every visitor feel at home, far from home.

Sustainable & Carbon-Negative Nation

Bhutan is the only country globally that is carbon-negative, indicating that it absorbs more carbon dioxide than it produces. Thus, while you are exploring the meadows and forests of Bhutan, you are not harming the environment as much!

Deep Spiritual Energy

From fluttering prayer flags to grand prayer wheels and majestic stupas, Bhutan is the dream destination for spiritual travellers. It is a great destination to stay if you are planning a spiritual escape and gently reconnect with your inner peace.

Vibrant Local Festivals

Held during spring and autumn, tsechus are one of the most sought-after experiences among visitors to Bhutan. This vibrant celebration of life happens annually and is held on different dates throughout the districts. It also features the iconic mask dance, ancient sermons, as well as spiritual rituals that bring entire communities together.

Off-the-Beaten Path Travel

To maintain the genuineness of the travel experience, the Bhutanese government restricts the number of tourists allowed to enter the country within a specific timeframe. This further means that you won't fall prey to any tourist traps, chaos, and can make the most of the offbeat locations and real stories of the locals.
