Experience the best of Bhutan in just 5 days!
Those who make the rare journey into the Kingdom will discover that this is indeed an exclusive place with a truly indigenous experience to offer.
Bhutan is the last Himalayan kingdom, shrouded in amazing snow peak mountains and shadowy forests that create picturesque landscape. That’s not all; the unique and best thing
about Bhutan is that it is the only country that is 72% covered in forests making it not only carbon-neutral but the world’s only carbon negative country.
Apart from this, Bhutan is a place where traditional Buddhist culture meets majestic fortress like dzongs and monasteries and it is undoubtedly a magical and mystical place to be.
Reputed to be the last Shangri La, this one of its kind country, is certainly the best place to visit for family vacation, honeymoon tours and even for adventure holidays.
Thimphu is an intriguing destination and the capital of Bhutan. The city nestled in the higher ranges of the Himalayas offers astonishing sights of its emerald forests and beautiful
view of the Raidak or Chuu River. Thimphu is culturally a must visit place graced with old world charms and modernity. For an excursion breaker, Thimphu offers charming cafes and bars as well as nightclubs
and restaurants to socialise and meet like-minded people.
Paro is known for its peaceful, serene beauty and clean air, surrounded by unlevelled mountains, lush green fields and historical buildings.
There are attractive dzongs, monasteries and palaces here. Paro is a historic town with peaceful atmosphere and it is best explored on foot. It is worth a stroll witnessing
the everyday life of the locals which ultimately makes it a must visit place in Bhutan.
Punakha, another breathtaking destination is the best place to be for those who enjoy the adrenaline rush of river rafting in its two rivers/chhus – Mo and Pho.
However, Punakha is widely famous for the 17th-century fortress Punakha Dzong which sits majestically besides the Pho and Mo Chhu. This Himalayan town hosts masked dances and
traditional music during Punakha Tshechu, a religious festival of Bhutan. The feeling the place offers is surreal, and thus many people visit here mostly to understand the Bhutanese
culture and history as well as to relish its divine natural beauty..
Dochula pass is located on the way to Punakha from Thimphu. The pass is a popular location among
tourists as it offers a stunning 360 degree panoramic view of the Himalayan mountain range. The view is especially scenic on clear, winter days with snowcapped mountains forming a majestic backdrop to
the tranquility of the 108 chortens gracing the mountain pass.
