Personal Information

RC Tashi founded Bhutan Classic Adventure Bike Tour to share the soul of Bhutan from the saddle of a Royal Enfield. With nearly two decades on Himalayan roads, he has led riders through Bhutan’s winding passes and into hidden valleys, while designing itineraries that balance adventure, culture, and comfort. His multilingual skills (English, German, Hindi, Nepali, and Bhutanese dialects) help bridge cultures, and his safety-first approach—daily briefings, pace control, weather/road monitoring, and coordination with on-road mechanics and a backup 4×4—keeps groups confident at every turn. Beyond logistics, Tashi curates moments: monastery visits, village stops, and festival timing that turn rides into memories. Known for his friendly humor and calm problem-solving, he’s equally at home handling a mountain pass as he is answering rider questions late into the evening. With Tashi, every route is intentional, every stop meaningful, and every rider looked after.
