Detailed Itinerary

Day 1 Paro Airport - Thimphu

After completing immigration formalities at Paro Airport, you will be met by your Bhutanese guide and transferred to the capital city of Bhutan, Thimphu.

On arrival in Thimphu, check in at the hotel. Evening free for leisure. Overnight at the hotel in Thimphu.

After breakfast, you will be taken for a tour of Thimphu City. You will visit Kuensel Phodrang, the gigantic Buddha Dordenma Statue located atop a hill offering a magnificent view of Thimphu Town; National Memorial Chorten, a stupa built in 1974 to honor the third King, Jigme Dorji Wangchuck; Folk Heritage Museum, a traditional house giving insight into Bhutanese lifestyle; Changangkha Lhakhang, one of the oldest temples in Thimphu; and Motithang Takin Reserve, a wildlife reserve for Takin, the national animal of Bhutan. In the evening, visit Tashichho Dzong, the Fortress of the Glorious Religion. Overnight at the hotel in Thimphu.

After breakfast, you will be driven to Paro. En route, stop at Tamchog Lhakhang, built in the 13th century by Thangthong Gyalpo. Continue your drive to Paro.

After breakfast, visit Taktsang Monastery (Tiger's Nest), located at an altitude of 3100m in the Upper Paro Valley. The hike to the monastery takes about 5-6 hours to complete.

Our sudden trip to Bhutan was a huge success thanks to Arshia Tours and Travels! (Read More) I found their contact on Holidify just 5 days before we wanted to leave. This was our very first package tour, so I just gave them our travel dates, and they planned absolutely everything perfectly. From the seamless pick-up at Bagdogra Airport to our final drop-off, the service was excellent. They booked very good 3-star rooms for us and created a fantastic itinerary that covered all the best places in Bhutan—all while keeping it budget-friendly. They are incredibly helpful at suggesting places and organizing the logistics. Highly recommend them for a stress-free trip!
