Glimpse of Bhutan

Glimpse of Bhutan

The Glimpse of Bhutan Cultural Tour is ideal for those with limited time who still want to experience the heart of Bhutan. Despite its name, this tour offers more than just a brief look—it immerses you in the country’s rich culture, scenic beauty, and timeless traditions.

Your journey begins in Paro, a charming valley town known for its traditional Bhutanese homes, peaceful surroundings, and natural elegance. As you travel toward Thimphu, enjoy scenic mountain views and make a stop at Tachog Lhakhang, a quaint temple that transports you back to Bhutan’s medieval era.


In the capital Thimphu, visit iconic sites including the majestic Buddha Dordenma statue and explore the vibrant local markets and cultural landmarks. From there, continue to Punakha via the spectacular Dochula Pass, where you’ll be treated to sweeping views of the snow-capped Himalayas.

In Punakha, marvel at the grandeur of Punakha Dzong, one of Bhutan’s most stunning and historically significant fortresses, situated at the confluence of two rivers. You can also hike to the Chimi Lhakhang—the famous Temple of the Divine Madman—or enjoy a more adventurous experience with rafting on the Pho Chhu River.

To add a personal and local touch to your trip, you may also opt for experiences such as a traditional hot stone bath, a farmhouse dinner with a Bhutanese family, or a butter lamp lighting ceremony for spiritual blessings.

The tour concludes with a memorable hike to Tiger’s Nest Monastery (Taktsang), Bhutan’s most iconic site perched dramatically on a cliffside—a powerful and awe-inspiring end to your cultural journey.

This tour captures the very best of Bhutan—its culture, nature, spirituality, and warm hospitality—all in a beautifully curated experience.
