trip Overview
Bhutan Introductory Tour offers you the best scenic and cultural delights. It includes two vibrant and lively cities of Bhutan, Thimphu, and Paro. These magical cities lead you closer to the Himalayan kingdom of Bhutan. Exploring the art and tradition of these cities opens window of introduction to the natural and cultural wealth of Bhutan. These two cities mainly showcase the trademark monuments, landscapes, and cultures of Bhutan. The majestic monasteries are built on the top of hills. The vibrant Buddhist culture in the cities; hills, valleys, and mountain vistas during the drive. And, of course, the pleasing panorama from the hilltops.
At last of the tour, you will find out that you have missed only a little about this secluded, shy nation tucked in the southern lap of the Himalayas. Leaving aside the adventure from the Chomolhari Base Camp trek and the first-hand experience of the kingdom’s rural areas, this city tour very much offers representative scenes, a diversity of landscapes as well the nation’s well-preserved religious and cultural heritage. When you drop into Paro from Kathmandu with 4 days at your disposal—you will forget how that time has passed. With Outdoor Himalayan Treks, create some unforgettable memories during this Bhutan Introductory Tour.
Itinerary
Early in the morning, you will board a flight from Kathmandu to Paro, a major city in Bhutan with international airport. After arriving at Paro, our representative will receive you and transfer you to your hotel. Get refreshed and take a tour through the city. This will be your first lead-in into the life and culture of Bhutan.
Tourists going to Paro do not fail to visit Ta Dzong, the national museum of Bhutan. It displays all sorts of art works and artifacts, displaying the proud cultural heritage of Bhutan. These Dzongs are typical monuments in Bhutan, built in the past as military barracks and fortresses, which now serve as monasteries attracting large number of tourists. One of the highlights of today’s visit is Taktsang monastery, built in a hilltop with excellent views around. It is one of the most ornate and the holiest of the monasteries in Bhutan, with legends linking it to Guru Rimpoche, one of the highest Buddhist spiritual authorities from the past. We visit this monastery in the morning, before visiting Ta Dzongs and other Dzongs near around Paro.
We drive from Paro to Thimpu through beautiful landscapes. Thimpu is the capital city of Bhutan with a smattering of ornately beautiful monasteries and art schools. Although the external link and influence are making their way into Bhutan, the nation has successfully preserved its unique culture and lifestyle. This will be evident when you make a tour through Thimpu.
We explore the rest of tourist destinations in Thimpu and return to Paro.
We return from Paro to Kathmandu, where endless holiday packages will be waiting for you.
