Package Overview
This 4-night, 5-day Bhutan package focuses on the country's two most prominent valleys, offering a perfect blend of modern Bhutanese life in Thimphu (2 Nights) and the deep spiritual heritage of Paro (2 Nights). In Thimphu, the itinerary typically includes visits to the majestic Buddha Dordenma, the Memorial Chorten, and the Motithang Takin Preserve to see Bhutan's national animal. The journey then moves to Paro, where the highlight is the legendary hike to the Tiger’s Nest (Taktsang) Monastery, followed by explorations of the National Museum and the ancient Kyichu Lhakhang. Most packages are designed as "fly-in, fly-out" via Paro International Airport and include 3-star accommodations, daily breakfast and dinner, private vehicle transfers, and a licensed English-speaking guide.
