Our experienced guides lead guests through the Paro Valley to Thimphu, and then on to the Punakha Valley. From the gravity-defying Tiger’s Nest Monastery to the Temple of the Divine Madman, the itinerary combines spectacular drives, nature walks and fascinating cultural visits. With four nights at COMO Uma Paro, three at COMO Uma Punakha and three spent camping, the trip combines the best of Bhutan’s valleys.
