Six days of monasteries and blessings for Indian families travelling with elders
Elders usually want three things from Bhutan: Kyichu Lhakhang, a blessing from a monk, and the climb to Taktsang done their own way. This itinerary places those visits on separate mornings so nobody is tired for the important one, keeps hotels within walking distance of the temples, and includes a wheelchair accessible vehicle on request. The Punakha stop breaks the driving and gives the family a warm afternoon.
Indian families travelling with parents or grandparents who want a temple led journey
Complete the permit formalities with our representative and drive up to Thimphu, stopping at Kharbandi Goemba for a first prayer and a view over the plains you just left.
Circumambulate the National Memorial Chorten with local families in the morning, then climb to Buddha Dordenma. A monk blesses the family in the afternoon, which is arranged in advance.
Stop at the one hundred and eight chortens on Dochula and reach Punakha by lunch, then walk through the dzong in the cooler afternoon. Evening prayers at the hotel shrine room if the family wishes.
Walk the short flat path to Chimi Lhakhang in the morning, then drive back over the pass to Paro. The evening is for rest before the temple day.
Butter lamps at Kyichu Lhakhang in the early morning, then the Taktsang trail with the tea house as the turning point for anyone who does not want the full climb. The evening is free.
Drive back down to Phuentsholing with a lunch stop and time to complete exit formalities before your onward journey.
Travel insurance strongly recommended: cover mountain medical care, altitude evacuation, and Paro weather flight delays. Read the travel insurance note
