Bhutan Tailormade - Himalayan Landscapes, Ancient Monasteries & The Druk Path Trek
What this journey is about
Journey deep into the Himalayan kingdom of Bhutan, a land of magnificent mountain scenery, ancient Buddhist traditions and timeless rural communities. From the colourful streets of Thimphu and the riverside temples of Punakha to the remote valleys of Bumthang and Gangtey, this comprehensive adventure reveals a fascinating country where centuries-old traditions remain an integral part of everyday life.
Along the way, discover magnificent dzongs and monasteries, meet local craftspeople, walk through pine and rhododendron forests and explore some of Bhutan's most beautiful valleys. The journey culminates with the spectacular four-day Druk Path Trek, crossing high mountain passes and remote Himalayan landscapes before descending into the Paro Valley. The final days bring the opportunity to explore historic Paro and undertake the unforgettable hike to Taktsang, the Tiger's Nest Monastery, dramatically perched on a cliff high above the valley.
This is an active and immersive journey designed to reveal both the cultural heritage and extraordinary landscapes of one of the world's most distinctive mountain kingdoms.
