An 8-day loop through Paro, Thimphu, Punakha, and the glacial Phobjikha Valley — the fullest introduction to western Bhutan.
For travelers who want more than a quick taste of Bhutan, this circuit adds the Phobjikha Valley and a slower pace in each town, with time built in for markets, museums, and unhurried walks alongside the major sights.
