Bhutan Family Escape

Bhutan Family Escape

For adventurous families looking to explore the fascinating mountain kingdom of Bhutan, this itinerary has been designed to be varied and fun, while still showcasing the many highlights. Stay in comfortable accommodation throughout, and your excellent guide will ensure you see and do as much as you can while you are in this most exciting of destinations.

Your journey through Bhutan begins in the tiny capital, Thimphu. You will notice the lack of high-rise buildings, and locals wandering around in beautiful traditional dress. Hike to the Golden Buddha statue, visit the National Memorial Chorten, and try a bowl of the national dish – Ema Datse (chillis in cheese). Move on to Punakha via the beautiful Dochu-la pass – a collection of chortens covered in prayer flags overlooking snow-capped peaks – where you will visit the Dzong, hike out to Chhimi Lkahang temple, and try your hand at archery. The last stop on your Bhutanese family adventure will be Paro. Mountain bike through the valley visiting temples and traditional villages. Hike to the famous Tiger’s Nest Monastery, clinging spectacularly to the cliff face. Leave Bhutan with amazing stories for friends and family back home.
