Detailed Itinerary – 3 Nights 4 Days Bhutan Short Tour

Day 01: Arrival in Paro & Drive to Thimphu (1.5 Hours Drive)

Your Luxury Bhutan Tour begins as you land at Paro International Airport, nestled in a valley surrounded by emerald hills and terraced fields. Our warm local representative will greet you with a traditional khadar (silk scarf) and assist with visa formalities.

As you leave Paro, the scenic drive to Thimphu, Bhutan’s capital, unfolds like a moving postcard — winding roads, pine forests, and rivers carving through mountain valleys. The 65 km journey takes around 1.5 hours, offering glimpses of Bhutanese villages and serene countryside life.

Upon arrival in Thimphu, check into your luxury hotel and rest. In the evening, stroll around the capital city — a place with no traffic lights yet perfect harmony. You’ll find cafés, handicraft shops, and locals in traditional attire mingling with monks in crimson robes.

Overnight at hotel in Thimphu.

Day 02: Full Day Sightseeing in Thimphu

Wake up to the peaceful sound of mountain birds and begin your day of cultural exploration.

National Memorial Chorten: Start your morning at this sacred stupa built in memory of the third king, Jigme Dorji Wangchuck — known as the Father of Modern Bhutan. Locals spin prayer wheels here, their chants filling the air with devotion.

Tashichho Dzong: Next, visit this grand fortress that houses Bhutan’s government offices and monastic body. With its whitewashed walls, golden spires, and riverside setting, it’s a masterpiece of traditional Bhutanese architecture.

Buddha Dordenma: A short drive uphill takes you to the towering Buddha statue overlooking Thimphu Valley. Standing 51 meters tall, this golden figure radiates calmness and offers a spectacular panoramic view of the capital below.

Changangkha Lhakhang: Visit one of Bhutan’s oldest temples, dating back to the 12th century. Locals come here to seek blessings for their children.

Traditional Medicine Institute: Discover Bhutan’s ancient medical practices based on herbal remedies and Buddhist philosophy. You’ll see how natural ingredients are transformed into healing medicines.

Day 03: Thimphu – Paro & Hike to Tiger’s Nest Monastery

After breakfast, drive back to Paro, a tranquil valley known for its historical landmarks and monasteries.

The highlight of your Bhutan Short Tour awaits — the legendary Tiger’s Nest Monastery (Taktsang). Clinging dramatically to a vertical cliff 800 meters above the valley, this sacred site is said to be where Guru Rinpoche (Padmasambhava) meditated after flying there on a tigress’s back.

The 4–5 hour round-trip hike is an adventure in itself, winding through pine forests adorned with prayer flags and small stupas. Each step brings you closer to one of the most spiritual sites in the Himalayas. You can also ride a horse partway up for an additional fee.

After returning, visit Rinpung Dzong, a fortress known for its detailed wooden carvings and cultural significance, and the National Museum of Bhutan, which offers a fascinating look into Bhutanese art, weapons, and artifacts.
