PROGRAMME

Essence of Bhutan

at Bhutan Spirit Sanctuary

For the traveller in search of the essence of Bhutan, Sanctuary developed an itinerary that includes the well-known places such as Thimphu, Paro, the Punakha and Haa Valleys, and the Tiger’s Nest. The itinerary leaves enough time to engage with local communities, visit the smaller off-the-beaten track monasteries and villages, and experience the benefits of our all-inclusive wellness services. This journey aims to balance the historical and cultural sites with full nature and wellness experiences, leaving enough time for the unexpected… or simply some time for a book and a cup of herbal tea on your Terrace.
