Detailed Itinerary

Day 1 Arrive in Paro - Thimphu
Arrive at Paro International Airport by Druk Air or Bhutan Airlines. After completing immigration formalities, meet your local Bhutanese guide who will accompany you throughout your journey. Begin your scenic drive to Thimphu, passing through Chunzom—the confluence of the Paro Chu and Wang Chu rivers. En route, stop at Tachog Lhakhang, a 14th-century temple built by the great master Thangtong Gyalpo. You can cross the Paro River via a traditional iron chain bridge to reach the temple. Continue your journey along the Wang Chu River until you arrive in Thimphu. Check in to your hotel and relax. Overnight in Thimphu.
After breakfast, begin your day with a visit to the Takin Preserve, home to Bhutan’s national animal—the Takin, a rare and unique species. Next, visit Kuenselphodrang (Buddha Point) to view the largest sitting Buddha statue in Bhutan and enjoy sweeping views of Thimphu Valley. You may also take a short nature walk here. Continue to Tashichhodzong, an impressive fortress that houses the throne room of the King and the office of the Chief Abbot. In the evening, visit the National Memorial Chorten, built in memory of King Jigme Dorji Wangchuck. Observe local devotees circumambulating the stupa with prayer wheels and malas. Overnight in Thimphu.
Today, drive to Punakha via the stunning Dochula Pass (3,140m), which offers panoramic views of the eastern Himalayas on clear days. Stop at the 108 Druk Wangyal Chortens and visit Druk Wangyal Lhakhang, built in honor of Bhutan’s fourth King. After refreshments at Dochula, continue to Punakha, the former capital of Bhutan. En route, stop at Metsina Village and take a 20-minute walk through rice fields to visit Chimi Lhakhang, also known as the Fertility Temple. Afterwards, explore a traditional farmhouse in Lobesa Village for a glimpse of local life. End the day with a visit to Punakha Dzong, beautifully located at the confluence of the Pho Chu and Mo Chu rivers. Overnight in Punakha.
After breakfast, drive through upper Punakha Valley and take a scenic hike (approx. 1 hour) through farmland to reach the majestic Khamsum Yuelley Namgyal Chorten, built by the Queen Mother for world peace. This beautifully located temple offers excellent views of the Punakha Valley. In the evening, visit the Sangchhen Dorji Lhuendup Nunnery, perched on a hill with stunning views of both the Punakha and Wangdue valleys. Overnight in Punakha.
Check out after breakfast and drive to Paro, a peaceful town known for its cultural richness. Visit Rinpung Dzong, an architectural gem that once served to protect the valley from Tibetan invasions and now functions as an administrative and monastic center. Walk down to Rimpung Bridge, one of Bhutan’s oldest traditional bridges. After lunch, visit the National Museum housed in Ta Dzong, a former watchtower featuring a unique collection of cultural artifacts. Overnight in Paro.
This morning, visit the ruins of Drukgyel Dzong, from where Bhutanese warriors once fended off Tibetan invaders. Continue to Kyichu Lhakhang, one of Bhutan’s oldest and most sacred temples, built in the 7th century by Tibetan King Songtsen Gampo. Then take a short hike to Dzongdrakha Monastery, often referred to as a "mini-Tiger’s Nest", set dramatically on cliffs above Bondey village. Legend holds that one temple here surrounds a levitating monument. In the evening, explore Paro’s town center, visit local handicraft shops, and interact with the friendly locals. Overnight in Paro.
After breakfast, check out from your hotel. A representative will drop you at Paro International Airport for your onward journey, taking back cherished memories of the Land of the Thunder Dragon.
