Depart for Bhutan by Druk-Air. There is no seat reservation. If you want a seat of your preference, you have to reach the airport early. Ask for window seat on your left, while coming to Bhutan. Arrived in Bhutan , if the weather is Mount Chomolhari, Bhutan's sacred mountain will be seen besides some high Himalayan mountains. Your guide will meet you outside the terminal. You will be taken for tea/coffee and your guide will give a brief on the programme of the day. After the break, we will start the sightseeing. Our first visit will be the impressive Ta Dzong - the ancient watchtower above the Paro Dzong which now houses the National Museum (The Muesum is closed on Mondays). The museum houses some of the ancient Buddhist status besides housing finest thanka, scrolls. It also houses Bhutan animals, birds and other interesting Bhutan way of life. After the museum, we will visit Paro Dzong, known as Rinpung Dzong, which means heap of jewels. We will then drive to Thimphu the night halt.

Thimphu – Paro. |
| |
Early morning drive to Paro. Once you are at Paro, you will drive the winding road beside the Pa Chu (chu means river or water) to Satsam Chorten. From this point, we begin the challenging hike to Taktsang – “The Tiger's Nest.” A vantage point directly across a gorge from the temple can be reached in about 2 hours. This magical monastery clings to a vertical granite cliff 2, 000’ above the valley floor. Legend says that Guru Padmasambhava flew to a cave on this cliff riding a tiger - hence the name - to meditate. The tiger was actually his favorite consort, Yeshe Tsogyel, whom he transformed to a flying tiger for the purposes of this journey. They meditated in the cave and when the Guru left he instructed that the monastery be built. Nothing like a day hike to finish your wonderful stay in Bhutan
This evening is at your leisure. If wanted to see anything more, your guide will take your around.
Option for those who are not able to walk: In the event if you feel you are not able to take a hike to the Famous Tiger’s nest, please discuss with your guide for his suggestion to see some other places of interest, or you may choose to be on your own. During your last dinner in Bhutan, your guide will brief you the departure procedures.
