Why We Pace This Route This Way

A three night break only works if the airport run and the permits are already handled, because there is no spare day to fix anything. We meet you at Paro, keep the first afternoon light, put Taktsang on day two while your legs are fresh, and leave the last morning clear for the flight. Direct Drukair flights from Delhi, Kolkata and Guwahati land twenty minutes from the hotel.
