Discover Bhutan, Nepal and Tibet on a 13-day luxury journey through sacred landscapes, ancient temples, and living traditions. This enriching Himalayan tour offers spiritual encounters, vibrant markets, cultural depth, and majestic scenery — all with private guiding, seamless travel, and thoughtful experiences curated by Asian Geographical.
Fly into Paro, Bhutan on a business-class flight from Bangkok or India. A private driver will meet you and take you to Thimphu, the capital city where you will stay for two nights. Start exploring Thimphu with your private guide, visiting important Buddhist sites and cultural landmarks. Spend time with local people and browse the markets. Visit museums focused on textiles, traditional crafts and Bhutanese heritage. This first day is a warm welcome and an introduction to Bhutan’s traditions, history and natural beauty in the country’s bustling yet peaceful capital.
Full day of private touring in Thimphu. Choose from gentle hikes to nearby villages and monasteries or cultural experiences. You may want to take a cooking class, meet a Bhutanese astrologer or meditate with monks. Whatever you choose, this day helps you connect more with Bhutan’s spiritual and cultural life. Your day is flexible so you can tailor it to your interests and enjoy the calm and charm of Bhutan’s mountain capital.
Today you will drive to Punakha, Bhutan’s former winter capital. En route stop at Dochu La Pass where 108 white stupas stand tall against the Himalayas. Once in Punakha, check into your luxury lodge surrounded by subtropical forest and farmland. Explore local villages and take peaceful walks along quiet paths. Visit Punakha Dzong, the stunning riverside fortress famous for its grandeur and history. This scenic day blends natural beauty with cultural depth as you settle into the peaceful rhythm of Punakha Valley.
Full day of hiking and exploring the Punakha valley. Gentle walks through fields and forests lead to small monasteries where you may receive blessings from local monks. For panoramic views take a hike to a high lookout over the valley. This is a chance to enjoy Bhutan’s countryside while deepening your understanding of Buddhist life. A combination of light physical activity and cultural interaction makes this day both enriching and restorative with opportunities to learn, reflect and enjoy the landscape.
Drive privately to Paro, a scenic town in a wide Himalayan valley. Known for its peaceful setting and cultural heritage, Paro is your base for the next two nights. Visit the National Museum where artefacts tell the story of Bhutan’s history and religion. Walk through Paro’s streets and visit local craft shops selling prayer flags, thangkas and Himalayan jewellery. This day sets the scene for your upcoming visit to the famous Tiger’s Nest and is a relaxing return to highland scenery and small town hospitality.
Early start for a guided hike to Tiger’s Nest, one of Bhutan’s most iconic sites. Perched high on a cliff, this sacred monastery is the highlight of the journey, with breathtaking views and a sense of peace. The hike is challenging but rewarding. In the afternoon personalise your experience with a traditional archery lesson, a yoga session or a visit to a Bhutanese spa. You could also explore more of Paro by bike or on foot. This flexible day is designed to end your time in Bhutan on a high note.
Fly to Kathmandu, Nepal where VIP services and a private driver will meet you. Check into your hotel for a three night stay and head out in the afternoon for a guided city walk. Explore the narrow streets filled with shops, shrines and local life. You’ll visit both Buddhist and Hindu sites as Kathmandu blends the two faiths with ease. Colourful prayer flags, bustling marketplaces and sacred courtyards will give you an introduction to Nepal’s capital that you will never forget. This first taste of Kathmandu is vibrant and spiritual.
Join your private guide for a full day of discovery in Kathmandu. Start at Durbar Square where ancient temples and palaces tell the story of the city’s royal past. Visit the sacred Boudhanath Stupa then climb to Swayambhunath, also known as the Monkey Temple, for panoramic views. At Pashupatinath watch Hindu cremation rituals along the riverbanks. These important religious sites will give you a deep insight into Nepal’s living spiritual traditions. Today’s experiences will reveal Kathmandu’s heart through its sacred art, lively rituals and diverse religious history.
Today you’ll explore the wider Kathmandu Valley with options for a scenic mountain flight over the Himalayas including Mount Everest. Back on the ground visit the ancient cities of Patan and Bhaktapur. See carved temples, squares and handmade crafts. At the Patan Museum learn more about Nepalese design and symbolism. Taste local dishes and try Bhaktapur’s famous “king yogurt”. The day is a mix of culture, history, art and cuisine and will give you one of the most complete views of Nepalese life and craftsmanship.
Fly to Lhasa, Tibet where you’ll stay for three nights. Located at over 11,000 feet Lhasa is known for its high altitude and deep spiritual energy. Once you’ve arrived start to adjust slowly with gentle sightseeing. Visit ancient monasteries, peaceful courtyards and learn about Tibetan Buddhist life. With prayer wheels spinning and incense in the air you’ll feel the city’s spiritual rhythm right away. Today sets the scene for your days in Lhasa, one of the world’s most sacred destinations.
Join your guide for a full day exploring Lhasa’s most famous sites. Walk the Barkhor pilgrimage circuit around Jokhang Temple filled with chanting pilgrims. Then visit the grand Potala Palace, former home of the Dalai Lama, filled with sacred statues, murals and chapels. Learn how faith shapes daily life in Tibet and take in the views across the city from this dramatic hilltop palace. Today you’ll see both the devotion and the artistry that make Lhasa so unique with moments of stillness and wonder at every turn.
Choose between more cultural touring in Lhasa or a full day hike to the Drak Yerpa caves, a peaceful retreat in the hills. These meditation caves are part of Tibet’s spiritual history and offer quiet reflection alongside stunning scenery. If you stay in the city visit other monasteries and local markets or relax in a traditional tea house. Whether you explore Lhasa’s sacred sites or the surrounding nature today offers time for both inner peace and outer discovery in one of the world’s most awe-inspiring regions.
Conclude your journey in Lhasa with a private airport transfer, marking the end of an extraordinary exploration of Tibet. As you depart, take with you a deeper understanding of Tibetan Buddhism and the cultural richness that defines this unique region on the "rooftop of the world."
