Bhutan Luxury Adventure

Experience

To facilitate your adventure of discovery in Bhutan, Amanresorts has created 'The Amankora Journey' to provide the opportunity to explore some of the marvels of the Kingdom over seven days. Traversing the remote valleys and high passes of Paro, Thimphu (the site of Bhutan's capital) Punakha and Haa, the route traverses dramatic, untouched landscapes, awesome dzongs (the traditional fortress monasteries) and small villages.
The Amankora Journey through the Land of the Thunder Dragon commences at Amankora, Paro where the first two nights are spent. Located in Balakha Village, 20 minutes from Paro town and the airport, this 24-room Aman lodge lies in the shadows of the imposing remains of the 17th century Drukyel Dzong.

Itineraries

Day 1: Arrival
From the flight in, weaving through the valley, arrival in Bhutan is like no other. A short complimentary transfer brings guests to Amankora and its spa, set inside a forest of pine. The spa offers a range of unique healing and rejuvenating treatments. In the afternoon, there is an opportunity for a quick stroll to the nearby ruins, a visit to some of the valley’s oldest and holiest religious monuments or a ramble down Paro’s main street. Evenings at Amankora include informative lectures on the history, religion, flora and fauna of the region. (overnight: Amankora in Paro).
Day 2: Tour of Paro
The day starts with a visit to the National Museum, housed in the Ta Dzong (watchtower). Here, an intriguing collection of artefacts provide a wonderful introduction to the rich culture and heritage of the Kingdom. Just a short walk downhill lies the dominating Paro Dzong, a fine example of Bhutanese historic architecture. From the Dzong, the tour crosses Nyamai Zampa, a traditional cantilever bridge, and guests are then driven to the town temple, built in 1525, to view ancient wall paintings. Paro options include picturesque picnic spots or, perhaps, a visit to a traditional farmhouse to lunch with the family. In the afternoon, hike up to view one of Bhutan’s most revered monuments, the Taktshang Goemba, more commonly referred to as the “Tiger’s Nest”. The four-hour trek offers spectacular views of this sacred monastery perched on a cliff face 900m above the valley floor. (overnight: Amankora in Paro)...
