Our manifesto
Bhutan Golden Gate’s motto is ‘Travel with a human face’, and our work is based on a strong manifesto that we do our best to live up to every day, a clear vision and some basic values that follow us faithfully in everyday life. We fundamentally believe that it is good to travel out and meet the world. We believe that when people meet, it contributes to greater understanding, which builds bridges between differences. We therefore want to create journeys with a human face. We build the journeys on openness and with the desire that they also enrich the people you meet on your way. We make a difference in the individual meeting and in the individual journey by taking responsibility and being close. We want to be something to others than ourselves.
An everyday life where we use our differences and are honest, even when it’s difficult. An everyday life where we all take responsibility and are ambitious in everything we do. That’s why we do it best. As a customer with us, you must always feel welcome. If you’ve been here before, we recognize you, and if it’s your first time here, we’re curious. The journey always starts with your dream. Because your journey is your own, the competence is ours, and together we make travel dreams come true. We succeed when your journey succeeds. We create journeys where people meet people at eye level. We therefore tailor them together with local partners. Partners that we choose based on the premise that local growth is sustainable growth. It is from here that we look out into the world, build the travel agency of the future and create journeys with a human face.
