About this trip
Six days across Bhutan's three main hubs — Thimphu, Punakha and Paro — giving you a solid first look at the country without rushing between too many places.
You start in Thimphu, the capital, where modern life sits alongside monasteries and old customs. From there you head to Punakha's river valley before finishing in Paro, home to the Tiger's Nest.
It's a mix of dzongs, valley scenery and cultural sites, with room built in for a personalised pace rather than a packed itinerary.
What you'll do
- Explore Thimphu, Bhutan's capital
- Visit Punakha Dzong on the river
- Take in the valley landscapes around Punakha
- Hike up to Tiger's Nest Monastery near Paro
- Spend time in Paro town
- Runs as a self-guided or small-group option with some personalisation possible
- Relaxed pace across just three base towns rather than constant moving
