One valley

Taktsang, above the Paro valley.

Four nights in Paro, for a party that wants one lodge and no pass to cross. The guide and the vehicle stay with you.

The days

  1. Day 1. Arrival

    Paro airport, and a short transfer to a restored farmhouse lodge in the valley.

  2. Day 2. The lower valley

    Kyichu Lhakhang in the morning. The rest of the day stays close to the lodge.

  3. Day 3. No long drive

    A walk on the valley floor. Lunch at the lodge. The afternoon is empty on purpose.

  4. Day 4. Taktsang, or the valley

    The climb to Tiger’s Nest if you want it and the trail is open. If you do not, we stay among the fields and the river.

  5. Last day. Departure

    A private transfer to Paro airport, timed to your flight.

The government fee

I do not publish a price for this route. The proposal carries the figure for your party.
