Detailed Itinerary

Day 1 Welcome to Paro Airport and transfer to Thimphu
  • Meet and greet guests upon arrival at Paro Airport.
  • As the flight approaches Paro, enjoy views of Paro Dzong and the Paro River.
  • After completing immigration formalities at the airport, our representative will receive you.
  • Drive to Thimphu, the capital of Bhutan.
  • On the way, admire the beautiful mountains and the Paro Chu (River).
  • When you reach Chojum, witness the confluence of the Paro River and Thimphu River.
  • Upon arrival in Thimphu, guests can visit the local market.
  • Overnight stay at a hotel in Thimphu.
  • Dochula Pass: Located between Thimphu and Punakha, it stands at an elevation of around 3100 meters. Here, visitors can enjoy a scenic view of the Eastern Himalayas. The pass features 108 stupas and is fully covered in snow during winter, making it a stunning destination.
  • Punakha Dzong: This is the most beautiful dzong situated at the confluence of two rivers, Pho Chu (male) and Mo Chu (female) in Punakha. Mo Chu is particularly preferred by first-timers, children, and elderly visitors. Upon visiting Punakha Dzong, guests will be mesmerized by the Bhutanese architectural marvel and have the opportunity to explore the sacred history of this ancient site.
  • River Rafting: While rafting often conjures images of navigating through tumultuous rapids and massive waves, rafting in Bhutan offers a gentle drift down the river, allowing participants to admire the scenery and experience a few small yet exciting rapids. (Own cost)
  • Chimi Lhakhang: Also known as Chime Lhakhang, this Buddhist monastery is located in the Punakha District of Bhutan, near Lobesa. Built in 1499 by the 14th Drukpa hierarch, Ngawang Choegyel, it stands on a round hillock and was blessed by the "Divine Madman," the maverick saint Drukpa Kunley (1455–1529), who constructed a chorten on the site.
  • Punakha Suspension Bridge: One of the oldest suspension bridges in the world, the Punakha Suspension Bridge in Bhutan is believed to have been built by the Buddhist monk Thangtong Gyalpo. This ancient hanging bridge is adorned with prayer flags and provides an ideal spot for bird watching and nature photography. It is renowned worldwide for its picturesque appearance.
  • Overnight stay in Thimphu.
  • The National Memorial Chorten: Built in memory of the third Druk Gyalpo (Head of Kingdom) of Bhutan, the National Memorial Chorten is dedicated to World Peace. The Chorten is popular among locals for various major Buddhist religious festivals and is one of the best places to visit in Thimphu, Bhutan.
  • Buddha Dordenma Statue: Atop a hill in Thimphu, this massive golden Buddha sits atop a gilded meditation hall. Hidden inside are 125,000 smaller Buddhas, meaning there are more Buddha statues than the city's population of 100,000. It is also known as Buddha Point.
  • Simply Bhutan (Living Museum): This living museum is run entirely by youth and supported by the Bhutan Youth Development Fund. It provides a glimpse into traditional Bhutanese life, featuring a small collection of typical household objects and tools. Youth guides explain how Bhutanese used to build houses from mud and make wheat wine. Visitors can try on traditional costumes (Gho & Kira) and take photos for free. Traditional dance performances are also available, and handicrafts can be purchased as souvenirs, supporting the youth.
  • Folk Heritage Museum: One of the oldest traditional houses, this museum is approximately 150 years old and once belonged to an affluent family. The government converted the house into a museum in 2001, providing visitors with fascinating insights into Bhutanese material culture and way of life. The Folk Heritage Museum features a three-story, 19th-century traditional house, showcasing typical household objects, tools, and equipment.
  • The Motithang Takin Preserve: For animal lovers, the Motithang Takin Preserve is one of the best places to visit in Thimphu. Originally built as a small zoo, it was later converted into an animal preserve center. The Takin, the national animal of Bhutan, resides in the Motithang Takin Preserve.

  • Changangkha Lhakhang: Among the many monasteries and temples in Thimphu, Changangkha Lhakhang is one of the most significant religious structures. Built in the 12th century, it is one of the oldest Lhakhangs in Thimphu and is known as the wish-fulfilling temple. From here, visitors can enjoy an amazing view of Thimphu city.
  • Bhutan Textile Museum: The Bhutan Textile Museum offers an impressive display of Bhutanese dresses and textiles, providing a clear picture of Bhutan's history in terms of textiles and traditional clothing.
  • The Clock Tower: Clock Tower Square is an example of great architectural marvel, featuring a tower with four clock faces, making it unique among buildings in Bhutan. It is a popular spot among visitors, especially in the evening when people enjoy the beautiful paintings and carvings. Numerous restaurants and souvenir shops nearby make it one of the most visited sites in the town.
  • TashiChho Dzong: Located next to the bank of the Wang Chhu River, TashiChho Dzong, also known as Thimphu Dzong, is a monastery that hosts the annual three-day Tsechu festival every year. It was built in 1216 A.D.
  • Overnight hotel in Paro.
  • Taktsang Monastery: After breakfast, embark on a hike to Tiger's Nest (approximately 5 hours round trip). This is Bhutan’s most iconic landmark and religious site, also known as “The Tiger’s Nest Monastery.” The temple clings impossibly to a sheer cliff face 900 meters above the Paro Valley. Taktsang Lhakhang is located approximately 10 km north of Paro town at an altitude of 3,120 meters. To reach the temple, visitors must trek for around 4-5 hours through beautiful, shady pine forests. No trip to Bhutan would be complete without a visit to this stunning heritage site.
  • Kyichu Lhakhang: Also known as Kyichu Buddhist Temple, Kyichu Lhakhang is a pilgrimage site as it is part of the 108 temples built by the king. It is very old, beautiful, and one of the most visited monasteries in Paro.
  • National Museum of Bhutan: An ancient watchtower that now displays hundreds of ancient Bhutanese artifacts and artworks, including traditional costumes, armor, weaponry, and handcrafted implements for daily life. The collections represent the rich cultural traditions of the country.

Just got back from an unforgettable trip to Bhutan with Asia Valley Tours! Sp (Read More)ecial thanks to Mr. Bharat Gurung from Asia Valley Tours for helping us plan and customize our itinerary exactly as we wanted. He was extremely prompt in responding and patiently clarified all our queries. From the moment we landed at Bagdogra airport, everything was beautifully organized — smooth transfers, comfortable stays, and a thoughtfully planned itinerary that allowed us to truly experience Bhutan’s serene beauty. Nothing felt rushed, and each day was well balanced. A special mention to our guide, Sangay Nidup, and our driver, Amber, who made the journey even more memorable. They were knowledgeable, patient, and always ensured our comfort. We didn’t just visit places — we experienced the culture, food, and hidden gems of Bhutan. Our package included three hikes in Thimpu, Phobijika valley and Paro. Our guide, Sangay made all hikes very enjoyable and informative sharing his past experiences. He also gave suggestions for shopping in Thimpu/Paro and took us to the local markets and helped us experience the local lifestyle. He was very helpful in taking photos during the trip. The highlight of the trip was the hike to Tiger’s Nest — challenging, but absolutely worth it. The views and the entire experience were simply magical.
