Luxury Nepal and Bhutan Honeymoon
For adventurous honeymooners wanting to explore ancient Kathmandu and mystical Bhutan in style. This itinerary includes stays at the very best accommodation option in each place visited, superb private guiding, and a wealth of fascinating experiences.
Begin with a deep dive into the many wonders of ancient Kathmandu. You will stay at Dwarika’s Hotel, a living piece of history and heritage and hands down the best hotel in the city. 5-star service and facilities await after your explorations of Durbar Square, Swayambhunath temple, and the magnificent Boudhnath stupa. Fly then from Kathmandu to Paro, in the heart of Bhutan. A fabled land of dragons, yetis and yaks, Bhutan is a land unlike any other. Huge tracts of green forest, mighty snow-capped peaks, bright blue skies, fluttering prayer flags, and villages lost in time await. Join your private guide and explore the tiny capital city, Thimphu. Famous for its lack of traffic lights, Thimphu is an extraordinary place. No high-rise buildings, citizens in traditional dress, very few cars, and beautiful temples.
Move on from here to Punakha, the next valley along. The drive passes the stunning Dochu-la (pass) with mountain views and a collection of Buddhist stupas adorned with prayer flags. Check in to the stylish Amankora Punakha, your base for the next couple of days. Visit Punakha Dzong, the fortress/monastery that sits at the joining of two rivers. Marvel at the architecture and murals whilst learning the history of this hugely significant building. Hike to Chhimi Lhakang temple, once home to a mad monk whose story you will learn. The last stop on your Bhutanese honeymoon adventure will be Paro. Hike up to the Tiger’s Nest monastery, clinging precariously to the cliff face, and transport yourselves back hundreds of years as you wander through this remarkable building. Monks in saffron robes may be seen praying, reading or lighting butter lamps. A breath-taking place. This journey through the heart of Bhutan will leave you with amazing memories to cherish forever.
