Bhutan Luxury Tour 7 Days / 6 Nights

The Bhutan Luxury Tour package by Asiana Treks and Tours includes deluxe accommodation, all meals, private transportation, entrance fees to monuments, licensed Bhutanese guides, and permits. It also covers airport transfers, scenic drives, cultural experiences, and activities like rafting and spa treatments. Optional flights from Kathmandu to Paro (and back) can be arranged. The itinerary blends natural beauty, cultural immersion, and exclusive luxury experiences to ensure a memorable visit to the Land of the Thunder Dragon.

Yes, all foreign nationals (except Indian, Bangladeshi, and Maldivian citizens) require a visa to enter Bhutan. Asiana Treks and Tours handles the visa application process for you as part of the package. Once your tour is confirmed and the required documents are submitted, we obtain your Bhutanese visa clearance. You’ll receive an e-copy before your flight, which must be presented at immigration upon arrival in Paro. The visa fee is included in the tour cost.

This luxury tour includes stays in carefully selected high-end hotels and boutique lodges that blend comfort with authentic Bhutanese charm. Accommodations are based on double occupancy and offer top-notch amenities, traditional architecture, serene views, and exceptional service. In Punakha and Paro, you’ll also enjoy exclusive spa and wellness facilities. If you prefer ultra-luxury properties like COMO Uma or Six Senses, upgrades can be arranged at an additional cost with prior notice.

The Kathmandu–Paro–Kathmandu flight is optional and not included in the base tour price. Asiana Treks and Tours can assist in booking these flights through Bhutan’s official carriers (Druk Air or Bhutan Airlines). We recommend booking early due to limited seats and high demand, especially in peak seasons. If you choose to fly from another city like Delhi or Bangkok, we can also assist with that. Please let us know your preferred route during booking.

The best time to embark on the Bhutan Luxury Tour is during spring (March to May) and autumn (September to November), when the weather is clear, pleasant, and ideal for sightseeing. These months also host vibrant cultural festivals like Paro Tsechu and Thimphu Tsechu. However, the tour operates year-round, and each season offers unique experiences—lush greenery in summer and snow-capped peaks in winter. Our team will tailor the experience based on your travel dates and preferences.

The hike to Tiger’s Nest (Taktsang) Monastery is moderately challenging. It takes about 4 to 5 hours round trip, with a steady uphill trail reaching 3,120 meters. While the path is well-maintained, it requires a reasonable level of fitness. We pace the hike comfortably and offer horse rides partway up if needed. Water, walking sticks, and rest stops are provided. It’s the highlight of the tour and worth every step for its breathtaking views and spiritual significance.

This tour offers immersive cultural encounters like visiting local markets, meeting monks at ancient monasteries, and enjoying a traditional Bhutanese farmhouse dinner. Guests experience Bhutanese architecture at the Punakha Dzong and interact with artisans in Thimphu. Spa rituals using herbal treatments, guided meditation, and wearing traditional Bhutanese attire (gho and kira) add a deeper cultural connection. These thoughtful experiences are curated to enrich your understanding of Bhutan's unique blend of spirituality and heritage.

Absolutely. The river rafting in Punakha is conducted on the gentle Mo Chhu or Pho Chhu rivers, depending on water levels and season. These are calm, scenic rivers with mild rapids, perfect for first-time rafters. Our experienced guides provide safety gear, a thorough briefing, and professional support throughout the activity. It’s an exhilarating yet safe experience suitable for most ages. Non-swimmers can also participate with life jackets and safety protocols in place.

The Bhutan Luxury Tour is suitable for travelers of most ages, typically from 10 years and above. However, those with mobility issues or heart/lung conditions should consult their doctor before participating, especially for the Tiger’s Nest hike, which involves high altitudes. We can adapt the itinerary to be more relaxed for seniors or families with children. Please inform us of any health concerns in advance so we can customize your journey accordingly.

Yes, Asiana Treks and Tours ensures all dietary needs are taken care of. Whether you’re vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, or have allergies, our team will coordinate with hotels and restaurants in advance. Bhutanese cuisine includes a variety of organic vegetables, rice dishes, cheese-based sauces, and meat options. Let us know your preferences during booking, and we’ll make sure your meals are both safe and satisfying throughout the tour.

Wi-Fi is available at most hotels and lodges on the tour, though speeds may vary, especially in remote areas like Punakha. Mobile connectivity is fairly good in towns like Paro and Thimphu. We recommend purchasing a local SIM card upon arrival for better data access, which we can assist with. While connectivity exists, Bhutan encourages digital detox and immersion in nature and culture, making it a refreshing escape from routine digital overload.

You’ll be accompanied by a professional, licensed Bhutanese guide fluent in English and trained in cultural interpretation, safety, and hospitality. Our guides are not just knowledgeable about Bhutan’s history and landmarks, but also passionate storytellers who add depth to every destination. They’re attentive, respectful of your pace, and skilled in personalizing the experience. From explaining sacred rituals to handling logistics, your guide ensures a seamless and enriching journey from start to finish.

While most luxury hotels accept international credit cards, it’s advisable to carry some Bhutanese Ngultrum (BTN) or Indian Rupees (INR) for small purchases, tips, or local souvenirs. ATMs are available in major towns like Thimphu and Paro but may not always be reliable. We recommend bringing around USD $200–300 in cash, which can be exchanged upon arrival. Your guide can assist with currency exchange and help manage transactions during the trip.

Tips are not included in the tour cost and are at your discretion. However, it’s customary to tip your guide, driver, and hotel staff for excellent service. As a general guideline, USD $10–15 per day for your guide and $5–10 per day for your driver is appreciated. In luxury settings, hotel and restaurant staff also welcome gratuities. Tipping is a meaningful way to show appreciation for the warmth and professionalism you’ll experience in Bhutan.

All ground transportation is provided in a private, air-conditioned vehicle suited to your group size. Asiana Treks and Tours uses high-quality, well-maintained SUVs, vans, or Toyota Coaster buses, ensuring comfort on mountain roads. Experienced local drivers who know the terrain and weather patterns operate these vehicles. Bottled water, refreshments, and charging ports are available onboard. We also allow ample stops for photography, rest, and sightseeing during scenic drives like the Dochula Pass.

Yes! While the Bhutan Luxury Tour is thoughtfully crafted for 7 days, we’re happy to customize it based on your interests, schedule, or preferred experiences. You can add extra nights in Bhutan, include more adventure (like hiking or cycling), or request additional wellness/spa retreats. If you’re traveling for a special occasion like a honeymoon or anniversary, we can tailor unique surprises. Just inform us during the inquiry, and we’ll build your dream itinerary.

Yes, travel insurance is strongly recommended for this tour and is mandatory for entering Bhutan. Your policy should cover trip cancellations, medical expenses, emergency evacuation, and loss of belongings. Asiana Treks and Tours does not provide insurance directly, but we’re happy to recommend reliable providers. It’s important to carry a copy of your insurance policy and emergency contact numbers throughout your journey. This ensures peace of mind during your once-in-a-lifetime Bhutan adventure.

Yes, Bhutan has a regulated tourism policy that requires all visitors to obtain a travel permit and visa clearance prior to entry. Asiana Treks and Tours handles all permit arrangements, including the Sustainable Development Fee (SDF), route permits, and monastery access. You won’t need to worry about any paperwork. Simply provide your passport details and travel information, and we’ll manage the rest. Permits will be issued before arrival and checked at various checkpoints during your trip.

Pack layers for varying temperatures, especially as Bhutan’s climate can shift between regions. Include comfortable walking shoes, a light down jacket, sunscreen, a reusable water bottle, sunglasses, and any medications. For the Tiger’s Nest hike, hiking shoes and a small backpack are recommended. Bhutan has a modest dress culture, so bring clothing that covers shoulders and knees when visiting temples. We’ll provide a detailed packing list upon confirmation to ensure you're well-prepared.
