Thimphu Tours with Local Private Tour Guides

Searching for a Shangri-La where happiness matters more than money? Welcome to Bhutan. Wedged between India and China, this tiny Himalayan kingdom attracts travelers hoping to catch a glimpse of this traditional Buddhist culture as it opens up to the world. While the sights are undoubtedly spectacular, the most memorable part of your trip will be the smiling faces you'll encounter.

Take a private Thimphu tour and explore the 'Land of the Thunder Dragon' with a local guide.

In a place where agriculture accounts for half the national income, even the capital Thimphu feels more rural than urban. Follow your guide down back lanes where vendors hawk vegetables and herders drive livestock, then stop in at a local restaurant serving Ema Datshi, chili peppers and cheese, a national favorite. Finish at the Dechencholing royal palace.

Those with more time can take a guided trip to the Punakha valley to visit the ornate Khamsum Yulay temple, stopping enroute to chat with farmers.
