Arrive in Paro and ascend to Six Senses Thimphu, the “Palace in the Sky,” perched above the valley’s pine forests. Ease into Bhutan’s serene rhythm with a massage, then sip butter tea at a rural teahouse and try your hand at archery. Wander through the giant Buddha Dordenma and join locals in koras at the Memorial Chorten, as golden prayer flags ripple in the Himalayan breeze.

Journey through high mountain passes to the mystical Phobjikha Valley. Stay at Six Senses Gangtey, where panoramic views stretch across glacial wetlands and monasteries. Walk the nature trails, visit the Crane Conservation Center, and share tea with monks in remote temples. End your evenings fireside, dining on Bhutanese flavors in a centuries-old farmhouse by candlelight.

Descend into lush Punakha, where rice paddies and rivers shape Bhutan’s sacred heart. Visit the revered Chimi Lhakhang fertility temple and hike to the towering Khamsum Yulley Namgyel Chorten. Join young novices for a monastery breakfast and enjoy sundowners with a view of Punakha Dzong’s golden rooftops. Six Senses Punakha’s “Flying Farmhouse” offers the perfect retreat.

Make your way to Paro and settle into Six Senses Paro beside the ruins of a 15th-century fortress. Craft prayer flags with a local family, visit hilltop dzongs, and unwind in the spa. Conclude your journey with a pilgrimage to the legendary Tiger’s Nest, Bhutan’s most sacred monastery clinging to a cliff. Dine under the stars in traditional dress as dancers and musicians transport you to another time.
