Let’s learn what makes Bhutan an exceptional destination for couples and whether it’s worth the honeymoon trip.
Indulge in Peace and Romance in Bhutan
Yes, it’s a compelling reason why couples choose Bhutan as a honeymoon destination. Many locations in Bhutan, especially remote villages, offer a peaceful environment.
Unlike many other destinations, Bhutan maintains “High Value, Low Volume” tourism. Limited the number of visitors each year in Bhutan helps preserve its nature and cultural heritage.
This allows you and your partner to enjoy a more intimate travel experience. Explore ancient monasteries, hike through verdant forests and valleys, enjoy spa retreats and boating, and soak in the breathtaking mountain views. These outdoor activities make your romantic journey more exciting and eventful in a peaceful ambiance.
The capital of Bhutan Thimphu is a must-visit destination, a mix of modernity and traditional Bhutanese culture. A Thimphu tour allows you to enjoy the urban charm of Bhutan, while places like Paro, Punakha, Haa Valley, Phobjikha, and Bumthang are ideal for couples looking for peaceful moments.
There, newlyweds can take leisurely walks through rice paddies, visit age-old dzongs (fortresses), and witness the slow-paced life in Bhutan. You must customize your Bhutan honeymoon package from a reliable tour operator.
Cultural Experiences in Bhutan
Bhutan’s culture and tradition make it a fascinating destination for travelers of all types. The beauty of Buddhism and Buddhist Heritage is evident everywhere, from the fluttering prayer flags to the exclusive designed temples and monasteries.
One of the most iconic landmarks in Bhutan is Tiger’s Nest Monastery (Paro Taktsang) situated in Paro Valley. The monastery is on the edge of a cliff, which requires a 4-5 hour hike.
Tiger’s Nest Monastery holds unparalleled spiritual significance and offers incredible views of the surrounding mountains. When it’s a moderate-level hike up to the monastery, it can be challenging if you have never been on a hike.
Take rest in between and stay hydrated on the way. But it’s a rewarding experience to visit Paro Takstsang. Your Bhutan tour guide will ensure proper guidance to make your hiking journey hassle-free as much as possible.
One of Bhutan’s important festivals is Paro Tshechu, which takes place in the Bhutanese lunar month (late March to April). It is a 5-day long religious festival. Customized Bhutan tour packages for couple give more private travel experiences.
There are many important festivals to enjoy in Bhutan, such as the Haa Summer Festival, Black-necked Crane, Thimphu Festival, Jakar Tshechu, Punakha Festival, Jambay Lhakhang Drup Festival, Wangdue Phodrang Festival.
An experienced Bhutan tour guide will tell you about its culture, history, art, music, dance, architectural beauty, etc. Cultural tours include a visit to dzongs, monasteries, museums, and wildlife places in Bhutan.
