Bhutan at a Glance 6 Days

Day 01: Arrival at Paro (2,250m/ 7380ft) and Transfer to Thimpu (2,350m / 7708ft)
Your flight to Paro will offer us breathtaking views of the Himalayan peak. Our local representatives will pick you up at the airport and transfer you to your hotel.

Day 02: Thimpu Sightseeing (2,350m / 7708ft)
Thimpu, the capital city of Bhutan, is a beautiful valley in the heart of the Himalayas. Because Bhutan adopts a strict development policy that incorporates traditional and cultural essence with infrastructure development, Thimpu exudes a traditional Bhutanese lifestyle. This quiet capital city of Bhutan has many Dzongs, the oldest of which is the Sirntokha Dzong. One of the main attractions of the day will be visiting the Tashicchodzong, which leaves an impression from the banks of Wangchu, the Thimpu River.

Day 03: Thimphu to Punakha (3,050m/10004ft)
After breakfast, we will drive to Punakha. We will stop at the Dochula Pass, a hill station with impressive 108 stupas. Dochula Pass also acts as a viewpoint from where some impressive views of the Himalayan Mountains can be enjoyed. We will start hiking from there and head toward Lumtsese. The trail for the day will be completely beautiful with diverse vegetation and wildflowers. At Lumtesese, our car will be waiting for us and we will drive to Punakha where we will spend the night.

Day 04: Punakha to Paro via Wangdi (2,250m/ 7321ft)
The highlight of the day will be the visit to the Temple of Fertility. We will take a car to Paro from where we will start our hike by heading towards the Temple of Fertility, which was built by a controversial monk called Lama Drukpa Kuenley in the 15th century. He believed that salvation could be attained through sex. Over time, the belief that the temple blesses fertility became popular which eventually helped the temple's popularity. Once we arrive at Paro, we will use the remaining day to stroll around Paro valley.

Day 05: Hike to Taksang Monastery (Tigers Nest) (2,250m/ 7321ft) and Paro Valley tour
We will ascend up to Bhutan's most sacred monastery- The Taksang Monastery. Buddhist Guru Padmasambhava used to meditate in this holy site where the monastery was later built in 1692. Hanging prayer flags surrounds the rocky ascent and you will also see Paro Taktsang which contain ashes of the dead on the ledges near the monastery. While entering the holy premises of the Taksang Monastery, you will need to leave your shoes, bags, cameras, cell phones, and other electronic appliances at the gate. Being inside the Tiger's nest is a serene and soul-soothing experience. After spending quality time in the Taksang Monastery premises, we will return to Paro where we will spend the night.
