Why the Royal Government of Bhutan adopts strong pricing policy by keeping the tariff relatively higher?
The Royal Government has always been aware that an unrestricted flow of tourists can have negative impacts on Bhutan’s pristine environment and its rich and unique culture. Therefore, the Royal Government of Bhutan adheres strongly to a policy of low volume and high value tourism, based on the principle of sustainability, meaning thattourism must be environmentally and ecologically friendly, socially and culturally acceptable and economically viable. Also the volume of tourists visiting Bhutan is regulated to a manageable level because of the constraints of the tourism infrastructure.
