This 6-day, 5-night journey takes you through the cultural heartlands of Thimphu, Punakha, and Paro, blending royal heritage, sacred temples, and majestic Himalayan scenery in perfect harmony.
From standing in awe before the Great Buddha Dordenma overlooking Thimphu Valley, to crossing the atmospheric Dochula Pass framed by 108 chortens and snow-capped peaks, every moment is steeped in wonder. You’ll walk across Bhutan’s longest suspension bridge, explore timeless fortresses like Punakha Dzong, and witness living Buddhist traditions in vibrant monasteries and serene nunneries.
