7 Days 6 Nights COMO Itinerary

Arrive at Paro International Airport where a COMO Uma Paro team member warmly welcomes you. After a short 10-minute transfer to the resort, check in and take time to rest and acclimatize.

Later in the day, enjoy a gentle introduction to Bhutanese culture with a visit to Paro town and a nearby temple. This relaxed start ensures you adjust comfortably to the altitude while immersing yourself in Bhutan’s charm.

Accommodation: COMO Uma Punakha

After breakfast, embark on a scenic drive to Punakha with enriching stops in Thimphu. Highlights include the towering Buddha Dordenma, National Memorial Chorten, Trashi Chhoe Dzong, and the Folk Heritage Museum.

Climbing higher, you’ll cross the spectacular Dochu La Pass at 3,000m, framed by 108 chortens and panoramic Himalayan views. Descend into the subtropical Punakha Valley, where serene landscapes await.

Start your day with a peaceful walk to Chimmi Lhakhang, the famed fertility temple of Bhutan’s “Divine Madman.” Continue on to the majestic Punakha Dzong, a 17th-century masterpiece and winter residence of the Je Khenpo and monks.

After lunch, hike through rural farms and pine forests to Khamsum Yulley Namgyal Chorten, a temple built by Bhutan’s royal family. This day combines cultural heritage with scenic immersion.

Retrace your route across Dochu La Pass, stopping to soak in the views once more. At Chuzom, the meeting point of two rivers, admire three unique shrines reflecting Bhutanese, Tibetan, and Nepali styles.

If time allows, stop at Tamchog Lhakhang, built by the legendary bridge-builder Thangtong Gyalpo. Upon reaching Paro, spend your evening trying Bhutan’s national sport—archery—at COMO Uma Paro.

Begin with a hike through pine forests to Zurig Dzong, continuing to Ta Dzong, home of the National Museum, and onward to Rinpung Dzong. Cross the traditional wooden Nyamai Zam bridge before wandering past the town’s lively archery grounds.

Later, visit Kyichu Lhakhang, one of Bhutan’s oldest temples with its magical ever-fruiting orange tree, and, if time permits, explore the historic Drukgyel Dzong.

Take on Bhutan’s most iconic experience: the hike to Taktsang Monastery. Trek 2–3 hours uphill through pine forests, prayer flags, and waterfalls before reaching the monastery’s dramatic cliffside perch.

Explore sacred shrines, murals, and meditation caves, steeped in centuries of devotion. A picnic or cafeteria lunch awaits on the way. Return to COMO Uma Paro to celebrate your accomplishment with relaxation and wellness treatments.

Enjoy a final breakfast at COMO Uma Paro before your 10-minute transfer to Paro International Airport.
Depart Bhutan with treasured memories of landscapes, monasteries, and the unmatched comfort of COMO resorts.
