Journey Through Bhutan
About This Program
The ultimate private journey through the Buddhist kingdom of Bhutan — from sacred monasteries and Himalayan valleys to a helicopter flight over Tiger's Nest and a transformative spiritual experience with a Buddhist teacher.
This extraordinary 13-day private tour traverses the entire breadth of Bhutan, from the bustling capital Thimphu through the ancient winter capital of Punakha, the pristine Phobjikha Valley of Gangtey, the spiritual heartland of Bumthang, and the iconic Paro Valley. Staying exclusively at Aman, Six Senses, and COMO lodges — the finest properties in the kingdom — you will experience Bhutan's living Buddhist culture through private monastery visits, meditation sessions with revered teachers, and a once-in-a-lifetime helicopter flight over the legendary Tiger's Nest Monastery clinging to its impossible cliff face. Every moment is guided by your own private Bhutanese guide and driver, ensuring intimate access to festivals, sacred sites, and communities rarely seen by outsiders.
