Highlights

Fly into Paro- Paro Sightseeing

Paro - Welcome to Paro Bhutan, where mist-covered mountains meet vibrant cultural heritage, and every step leads to a deeper connection with nature and your inner self. Your guide and driver await at the arrival with a white scarf of auspiciousness and escort you to your hotel.

Rinpung Dzong - Traverse the traditional wooden cantilever bridge to reach Paro Rinpung Dzong or the fortress on Heap of Jewels and explore the astonishing architecture and paintings .

Jangtsa Dumtseg Lhakhang - Dumtseg Lhakhang lies just out of Paro town, with the backdrop of a majestic hill. It is possibly the only ancient temple built in the shape of a chorten and is literally chained down since local belief holds that it will otherwise fly off to heaven!
Dumtseg Lhakhang was constructed in 1412 by Thangtong Gyelpo who came to Bhutan in search of iron ore to be used for constructing bridges in his homeland Tibet.
The paintings here are possibly the most extraordinary collection in all of Bhutan. The Dumtseg lhakhang was conceived as a mandala with the three different levels of initiation.

Dzongdrakha Temple - Take a 15 minutes walk to Dzongdrakha : visually splendid but little visited Cliffside retreat.
While at here, don’t forget to visit the cave where Drubthog Gyonpo Dorji , the founder of the Lhakhang has meditated. It has a spiritually healing ambience. The place is also not so touristy so you can enjoy the serenity and tranquility at utmost on your own.

Discover the Magic of Bhutan with Bhutan Best Inbound Tour: A Journey Like No Other - Discover the Magic of Bhutan with Bhutan Best Inbound Tour: A Tailored Journey Like No Other Bhutan, the last Himalayan kingdom, remains an enigmatic and magical destination for travelers seeking both adventure and tranquility. It’s a land of towering peaks, pristine forests, and centuries-old monasteries that cling to mountainsides like something out of a fairy tale. But the real magic of Bhutan isn’t just found in its landscape or architecture — it’s in its people, its culture, and the stories they share. That’s exactly what my trip with Bhutan Best Inbound Tour was all about, and I want to take you through this incredible journey that left me longing for more. If you're considering a visit to Bhutan, I highly recommend booking through Bhutan Best Inbound Tour. From start to finish, their attention to detail and commitment to delivering an authentic Bhutanese experience is unparalleled. Be sure to check their Tripadvisor listing for reviews and tips from other travelers, and visit their website for more information, including hours of operation, tour options, and special offers. The Warm Welcome of Paro: Zhideychen Resort One of the highlights of the trip was our stay in Paro. We followed the tour's recommendation and booked a room at the Zhideychen Resort, and I couldn’t be happier with our decision. From the moment we stepped into the resort, we were greeted with warm smiles and impeccable service. The rooms were spacious, beautifully decorated with traditional Bhutanese elements, and the beds — oh, the beds! After years of traveling, I can honestly say these were some of the most comfortable beds I’ve ever slept in. The cafeteria at Zhideychen Resort offers a wonderful variety of Bhutanese cuisine, and the staff goes above and beyond to ensure that every guest is well taken care of. Whether you're enjoying a morning breakfast or an evening meal after a day of exploration, the food is simply delightful, with the flavors of Bhutan shining through in every dish. Their team is courteous, kind, and professional — top-notch customer service all around. If you’re traveling to Paro, I would strongly recommend Zhideychen Resort as your home away from home. A Private Tour Tailored to Your Interests One of the best things about booking with Bhutan Best Inbound Tour is that they offer private tours, which means the itinerary is flexible and tailored to your interests. Our guides were more than willing to adjust our daily activities based on what we wanted to see and experience. Whether we wanted to spend extra time at a particular site, stop for photos along the way, or add in a last-minute hike, they made sure our trip was exactly what we envisioned. This flexibility added an extra layer of personalization that made our Bhutan experience even more special. A Dynamic Duo: Our Guide and Driver Our experience with Bhutan Best Inbound Tour was made truly exceptional by two people: Tandin Wangchuk, our guide, and Inda Dorji, our driver. Together, they formed a dynamic duo that elevated our experience in ways we couldn’t have imagined. Tandin Wangchuk, whom we affectionately nicknamed the "Thunder Dragon," was nothing short of amazing. His passion for Bhutanese culture, religion, and history was evident in every story he shared. Whether we were visiting the awe-inspiring Tiger's Nest Monastery or marveling at the breathtaking views of the Himalayan peaks, Tandin’s knowledge and enthusiasm brought everything to life. His English was excellent, and he was always eager to answer our questions — from the intricate meanings behind the fluttering prayer flags to the symbolism of Bhutanese architecture. His love for his country is contagious, and we felt fortunate to have him as our guide. Inda Dorji, our driver, was equally impressive. Navigating the winding, sometimes narrow roads of Bhutan is no easy feat, but Inda did it with such skill and precision that we always felt safe and secure. He was always on time, courteous, and happy to share stories of his own life and experiences in Bhutan. The roads of Bhutan, with their steep drops and sharp turns, can be intimidating for first-time visitors, but with Inda behind the wheel, we knew we were in good hands. Safety, Diversity, and Inclusivity in Bhutan One of the things that stood out to me during our time in Bhutan was the safety and inclusivity of the country. Bhutan is incredibly safe for tourists, with a low crime rate and a welcoming atmosphere. We felt comfortable traveling in both remote areas and more populated towns. Moreover, Bhutan is an open and accepting country, where people of all religions, ethnicities, and nationalities are respected and embraced. The country’s deep-rooted values of kindness and compassion are evident in the way they treat visitors from all walks of life. As a diverse group of travelers, we felt welcomed everywhere we went. Whether you’re traveling solo, as a couple, or with family and friends, Bhutan offers a safe and accepting environment for all. Must-See Sights in Bhutan During our tour, we visited several of Bhutan’s most iconic sites, and each one left a lasting impression. Here are some highlights from our journey: Tiger’s Nest Monastery (Paro Taktsang): No trip to Bhutan is complete without a visit to this legendary monastery. Perched precariously on the edge of a cliff, 10,000 feet above sea level, the Tiger’s Nest Monastery is a sacred site that requires a challenging yet rewarding hike. The views from the top are nothing short of spectacular, and the sense of peace and spirituality that permeates the air is something you won’t soon forget. Buddha Dordenma (Thimphu): Standing at an impressive 169 feet, this massive statue of Buddha is one of the largest in the world. Overlooking the capital city of Thimphu, the Buddha Dordenma is a symbol of peace and prosperity. The statue houses over 100,000 smaller Buddhas inside, each one meticulously crafted, making it a marvel of craftsmanship and spiritual significance. Punakha Dzong: Often regarded as the most beautiful dzong (fortress) in Bhutan, Punakha Dzong is located at the confluence of two rivers, the Pho Chhu and Mo Chhu. The dzong is a stunning example of Bhutanese architecture and serves as both a religious and administrative center. We were lucky enough to visit during the annual Punakha Tshechu, a colorful religious festival featuring traditional dances, music, and rituals. Dochula Pass: This high-altitude mountain pass offers some of the most breathtaking panoramic views of the Himalayas. On a clear day, you can see several of Bhutan’s snow-capped peaks stretching across the horizon. The 108 memorial chortens (stupas) that dot the landscape add to the serene beauty of the area. Insider Tips for Future Travelers As seasoned travelers, we made a few decisions that enhanced our experience, and I would recommend them to anyone planning a trip to Bhutan: Book an extra day on the front and back end of your tour. This gives you some breathing room to acclimate to the altitude and relax before diving into the adventure. Request Tandin Wangchuk and Inda Dorji as your guide and driver. Their knowledge, professionalism, and warmth made all the difference in our trip. Check with the tour company regarding pickup times. Bhutan Best Inbound Tour is very accommodating, and they were happy to adjust the schedule to suit our needs. Be prepared for a mix of physical activity and relaxation. Bhutan is a country of contrasts — serene valleys and towering mountains, ancient temples, and modern conveniences. You'll have opportunities for peaceful reflection and vigorous exploration, so pack accordingly! Conclusion: An Unforgettable Bhutanese Experience In every way, Bhutan Best Inbound Tour exceeded our expectations. From the seamless planning and booking process to the unforgettable experiences on the ground, they ensured that our trip was nothing short of extraordinary. Bhutan is a country that will leave an indelible mark on your heart, and having the right guide and tour company makes all the difference. Whether you’re interested in exploring Bhutan’s rich cultural heritage, hiking its majestic mountains, or simply soaking in the beauty of its landscapes, Bhutan Best Inbound Tour will take care of every detail. Their Tripadvisor page has plenty of useful reviews from fellow travelers, and I highly recommend checking their website for the latest tour options and information. Our guide, Tandin, and driver, Inda, turned what could have been an ordinary vacation into an extraordinary adventure. With their knowledge, passion, and expertise, we didn’t just visit Bhutan — we experienced it.

Unforgettable experience in beautiful Bhutan - Bhutan exceeded our expectations and WOWed us every moment! The country is so clean, calm, beautiful, and filled with nature. Our tour guide Namgay and driver Lham went above and beyond to ensure we had an incredible experience. Not only was Namgay so knowledgeable and taught us so much about his country, but kept us laughing along the way as well with his entertaining stories. Each hotel we stayed at impressed us with its quality and attentive staff, and the rooms and beds were so comfortable. Every single meal we had during the trip was delicious! The only thing we regret is not staying longer. I recommend everyone make the trip to Bhutan at least once in their lifetime, and request guide Namgay and driver Lham if you want the best!

Well organised, flexible and informative - Well organised, flexible and informative. I chose Bhutan Best Inbound Tour based on other good reviews, the price and fast response time (booking via WhatsApp). The admin team were very fast to arrange my trip and visa. This was a very last minute trip, only organised 2-3 days prior. I would recommend longer to ensure a guaranteed visa, however the team worked flawlessly to arrange this for me. Upon arrival in Paro, Bhutan I was met by the fantastic Guide Tandin Wangchuk and Driver Tshewang. Both guide and driver spoke excellent English and created a relaxed, informative and flexible solo tour for me. The team were able to answer any of my questions, modify the travel plans (if necessary) and provide very enjoyable company over the 4 days. I could not recommend this pair more. The hotels and food provided were of excellent standard. A really healthy mix of local culture with modern amenities. The itinerary provided involved all of the sites one would wish to see. Something very unique about this company is that they give you the opportunity to light 108 butter lamps at the start of your trip for good fortune and merit. A truly unique experience which was of course included in the competitive tour package price. Overall, I will be back and will book again with this company without hesitation.

wonderful experience and highly recommended - I recently embarked on a journey with this tour operator, and it turned out to be a phenomenal experience from beginning to end. The highlight was undoubtedly the tour guide Chencho, whose expertise and passion about Bhutan, Buddhism, nature, history... enriched my understanding and appreciation of each site we visited. His knowledge was deep and engaging, making complex historical and cultural contexts accessible and fascinating. Additionally, Chencho went above and beyond to accommodate my food allergies, ensuring that I could enjoy delicious and safe meals throughout my travels. The driver (Jigme) was also excellent. He is very professional and provided smooth and efficient transport. I highly recommend this tour operator for anyone looking to delve deep into the wonders of the area with the comfort of knowing they’re in expert hands.

Excellent Company Guide and Driver - What a fantastic company to work with. We went direct to them as we had some unusal request for a 4 day private tour for me and my wife. Deki could not of been more accomodating and was very efficient in addition to being very honest as we had booked the tour a year out when Visa fees were double what they are now, When the fees dropped she contacted us to advise of the refund. We just finished our 4 day tour and our guide was Tandin Dorji and our driver was Choda. Both of the young men were excellent. They always went out of their way to help us. Tandin was excellent in explaining the Culture, beliefs and Buddhism to us at every site we visited. On the climb to Tigers Nest they went at our pace and helped us to make sure we were safe on the way up and down. Bhutan is a beautiful country and I highly recommed you visit the country as there is some beautiful things to see. Tigers Nest is one of the top things we have seen in having travel to over 85 countries around the world. I can not recommend this company and the above people we worked with enough.

An Experience of a Lifetime in Bhutan with Incredible Guides - My tour to Bhutan was the experience of a lifetime. From the early communications with Deepen who arranged my visa and ensured every logistical detail exceeded my expectations, to my amazing guide Mr. Tandin Wangchuk and driver Pema Drakpa who not only showed me the incredible sites of Bhutan but enlightened me about Buddhism. They also shared information about the people of the country and the many facets of its economy, natural resources, and wildlife to name just a few things. To visit the monasteries and temples was incredible when so much information was shared about how Bhutan interacts with the world. This tour is easily the best I have ever been on and HIGHLY RECOMMEND this tour company, and, in particular, Mr. Tandin and Mr. Pema.
