Coaster Bus 4 – The coaster bus 4 has capacity of 18 seats for passengers including driver & guide. The luggage goes on the rooftop however since HBT focus on passengers comfortable journey, we use this bus for less passengers than its capacity. These buses are Non AC and 3rd generation Toyota production. Our buses are well maintained and very good conditions. These buses are not used for public service therefore its clean, hygienic and well designed coaches.

The bus has large sliding glasses which gives best views and better photo opportunity from inside the bus. These buses are very comfortable for long journey on hilly roads. The another type of coaster bus we have is called Coaster Bus 6, slightly later and comes with AC or Non AC both. However AC is not used on hills and it is not required in Bhutan. While in Bhutan you must breath tons of clean fresh air from 72% forest coverage therefore you must enjoy the non AC fresh clean air while in Bhutan.
