What To Expect

This 8-Day trip offers an eye-opening adventure into Bhutan's rich ancient culture & abundance of nature through the hearts of 4 western districts. You will go on nature hikes, appreciate the pristine natural environment, explore rural villages, and gain firsthand experience on its culture and people.

On Day 6 of your trip, you will trek to one of the most sacred pilgrimage sites called Bumdrak located on the mountain meadow at an elevation of 3,860m. The trail takes you through green lush forests following ancient trails and enjoy breathtaking views of Paro valley. Camping will be on a serene mountain meadow adorned with Chortens (sacred Buddhist stupa) and fluttering prayer flags. Your return journey back to Paro will be via the most recognized site in Bhutan, 17th-century Taktsang (Tiger’s Nest), built on an 800-meter rock cliff sacred site founded in the 8th-century.

What to remember

Important info

Not wheelchair accessible. This tour can be customized and run on a private basis just for you and your group..

If you already have flight tickets to and from Bhutan, we can take bookings up to a week before the departure date. To process visa, it only takes 4-5 business days.. There are only two airlines that connect Bhutan with the outside world and so securing air tickets can be difficult especially during the months of high season. Currently, Bhutan is connected with these cities - Bagdogra, Bangkok, Delhi, Dhaka, Guwahati, Kathmandu, Kolkata, Singapore. We recommend you book your international flights a few months in advance especially if you plan to visit during the high season months of March to May and September to November.
