Highlights
Why you'll love this trip
- Direct flight from KL to Paro saves you two connection layovers. You land already wearing the tashi khadar scarf the guide hands you at baggage claim.
- Ema datshi is chili cheese stew, not a metaphor. Order it twice because the first bowl goes too fast.
- Tiger's Nest clings to a cliff 3,000 feet up. The hike takes three hours, or you can pony halfway and walk the rest on wobbly legs.
- Wear the gho or kira costume once for photos at Punakha Dzong. The wrap technique is harder than it looks, and someone will fix it for you.
- SDF government fee is included in the price, so you're not mentally converting USD 100 per night at the airport.
