Experience the spirit of Bhutan on this immersive, fully guided cultural journey, enriched with scenic day walks that bring you closer to the land and its people. From sacred cliffside monasteries to quiet valleys rarely seen by mainstream travellers, this itinerary balances cultural discovery with gentle physical activity.
Travel over Bhutan’s highest road passes and into some of its most spiritually significant regions – including the remote Haa Valley, the black-necked crane wetlands of Gangtey, and the temple-dotted forests of Bumthang. Walk ancient paths between Dzongs and Lhakhangs, through pine and rhododendron forests, past hillside chortens and alpine meadows. In spring, these day walks are even more vivid, with blooming rhododendrons, magnolia and a rich variety of alpine wildflowers lining the trails. Take in sweeping views of Jomolhari (7,326m), one of Bhutan’s most sacred and striking Himalayan peaks.
With expert local guides sharing stories of Bhutan’s deep traditions, and walks that lead to moments most tours miss, this is a rare opportunity to explore the Land of the Thunder Dragon in a way that’s both enriching and accessible – without the demands of a full trek
