This is the shortest trip to Bhutan. The four nights’ tour takes you through three popular districts of Paro, Thimphu and Punakha. It combines almost all the important cultural highlights and allows time to wander through the streets for some souvenir shopping. In Thimphu we take through the grand textile museum, school of arts and crafts, traditional paper factory, the great Tashicho Dzong (capital fortress) and some time to witness Bhutanese men playing archery. Punakha excursion is an opportunity to drive through one of the most beautiful passes called Dochhula. The two to three hours drive, one way, offers an experience to enjoy the natural treasure revealed through temperate and sub-tropical forests. While at Punakha we take you to the temple of the Divine Madman and the great Punakha Dzong. We end the trip at Paro with a hike to the famous Tiger Nest, clusters of temples built on sheer rock face.
