Transfer to the airport in Nepal and fly 1-hour to Paro. A spectacular descent through mountainous valleys brings you into the Kingdom of Bhutan.

A short picturesque drive about 2 hours along the valley brings you to the capital of Bhutan, Thimpu. After lunch at a local restaurant, start your sightseeing with a visit to the Textile Museum, a traditional paper-making factory, and the post office to see Bhutan’s beautiful stamps which also depict the country’s myths, traditions, and culture.

Day 2
Thimphu, Takstang, Paro
In the morning, we’ll drive to Satsam Chorten and then hike to the famous Takstang (Tiger’s Nest) Monastery, which is built around a cave where Guru Rimpoche (also known as Guru Padmasambhava) meditated. The legend has it that Guru Rimpoche is said to have flown to the site of the monastery on the back of a tigress from Tibet and meditated in the cave for three months.
