The pass is renowned for its breathtaking panoramic views of the Himalayan mountain ranges, including the majestic peaks of the snow-capped Himalayas. Once here, you will witness 108 Druk Wangyal Chortens. After arriving in Punakha, walk across Farm Houses to reach Chimmi Lhakhang, a 15th century fertility Temple blessed by Lam Drukpa Kuenley, who is known as the Divine Madman for his eccentric behaviors. He is also considered a symbol of fertility and many childless couples go to his temple for blessing. Check in to the Pemako Punakha. Pemako Punakha is tucked into the fertile Punakha valley, known for its year-round temperate climate, Buddhist festivals, and the sublime Punakha Dzong. A place where time stands still, stress dissipates, and the mind awakens.
After breakfast, 45 minutes hike to Khamsum Yulley Namgyel chorten with the picturesque view of the rice terraces along the river. It is a beautiful chorten located on a ridge at Kabesa Gewog in Punakha overlooking several villages. It is a 30-minute drive from the Khuruthang Town and a 45-minute uphill hike from the base of the hill through suspension bridge and rice fields.

Instead, you’ll witness a white-gloved traffic officer gracefully directing vehicles in a choreographed style that has become a tourist attraction in its own right.
After breakfast, visit the Buddha Dordenma Statue, also known as the “Buddha Point,” is a massive statue of Buddha Shakyamuni in the Kingdom of Bhutan.

One of the most popular things to do in Thimphu, you can buy this unique paper here which will make for interesting souvenir gifts.
Lastly, Tashichhodzong. This magnificent structure stands proudly on the banks of the Wang Chhu River and serves as both a religious and administrative hub of Bhutan. Now it houses the secretariat building, the throne room and the office of the King and central monk body.
Drive to Paro (1.5 hrs). Taktsang Monastery: The wooden structure built amazingly, stands bravely on a cliff. It is said that the great Guru Rinpoche flew here on the back of a tigress and set up this monastery when he brought the teachings of the Buddhist Dharma to Bhutan in the 8th Century.

EXCELLENT Based on 81 reviews Posted on Kari L11 October 2025Verified Beautiful Bhutan Great experience! Fast and responsive communication right from the first WhatsApp message. Visa was sorted very smoothly and everything worked out as planned. I had a very kind and respectful tour guide (Lhazin Dorji) and a reliable driver who ensured a memorable stay. I really enjoyed my short stay in the land of the thunder dragon.Posted on Tourist6852396541110 October 2025Verified Bhutan Tour OMSHA Travel I had wonderful experience during our tour in Bhutan with OMSHA travel, our tour guide Tashi Tenzin and driver Sun-Zu were exemplerary, very friendly and accommodating in our tour. They guide us in every tourist spots we go and make sure we are safe, and enjoy every moment during our tour. One of the best tour guide and driver I've had. I will highly recommend them wheh you visit Bhutan. I will give them ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️Posted on Sheila Tabernilla7 October 2025Verified Extraordinary! ❤️ The experience is superb! Plus having one of the bests tour guides- nothing can be asked for! It wasn’t an awkward experience day by day, I get or rather we felt comfortable with them. Total happiness and very good experience..🫶🏻 we were taken cared well by Tashi Tenzin and Sanju!Kudos to them! It was also a hassle free experience and no hints of no can be given to the services provided! It was seamless even though our flight was delayed..Really this country has a lot to offer so the only regret is not having more days to stay and explore more..❤️👍🏻👏🏻All the bestPosted on Xiang Yee28 September 2025Verified Eyeopening Experience We booked our Bhutan trip with OMSHA Travel and couldn’t be happier with the experience. We entered Bhutan via the India–Bhutan land border and OMSHA arranged everything seamlessly from the airport pickup in India to ensuring our safe entry into Bhutan. As two young ladies traveling together we truly appreciated the sense of security and care they provided throughout.Our 4D3N itinerary was packed and while we enjoyed every moment I would recommend staying longer if possible. Bhutan has so much to offer and travel time between destinations can take up a fair portion of the day. Sharing a general idea of what you would like to see beforehand also helps OMSHA customize the trip perfectly.A highlight was definitely the Tiger’s Nest Monastery. The hike is breathtaking but also steep and challenging so being reasonably fit is important to fully experience it.Overall OMSHA Travel made our Bhutan journey smooth, safe and unforgettable. Their attention to detail and hospitality left us with lasting memories. Highly recommended.Posted on Jia Yi C28 September 2025Verified Good Experience With Sonam and Sunzu We found Omsha Travel as we were sourcing how to get from India to Bhutan overland and his website was very informative. He was also very quick with his replies on Whatsapp which we appreciated a lot. We had a 4D3N tour in Bhutan and the tour was very flexible and customisable, allowing us to choose wherever we wanted to go. Our guide and driver was Sonam and Sunzu (Soju) who were so friendly and we hit it off so well~ they treated us like friends and the conversations with them made us learnt so much about Bhutan. Sonam is very knowledgable with all the history and Sunzu drives very smoothly. Also, the hotels were top notch with very good views👍 We enjoyed the stay and could rest properly after a long day.If I could change anything about the trip, I would stay for more days to fully appreciate the beauty of Bhutan.Posted on Elijah26 September 2025Verified A smooth trip The tour was well organised and went smoothly. Appreciate the flexibility of the arrangements in taking into account our energy levels. The guide Sonam was fun and engaging, giving us many stories on Bhutanese culture. The drive was smooth too, thanks to our driver Tewang. All in all, a great trip.Posted on Kavya Pinto27 August 2025Verified Adventure, culture and a personalised tour of beautiful Bhutan Wondering how to put into words the experience we’ve had these past 6 days. Bhutan is a truly spectacular country and the people made the experience all the more special Organising the trip with Nawang was effortless. He understood immediately what we required and customised the trip according to our interests. Sonam, our guide is an absolute gem. He was so eager to share his knowledge and love for his country. He was friendly and extremely accommodating. His answer was always yes and it made our trip all the more special. We will always remember this trip and it’s because of him Our driver Tashi- quiet, respectful and extremely kind. Always greeted us with a smile. The hotels were clean and check in/out was seamless. We requested for a bike for 3 days and absolutely loved riding it. Both the guide and driver were very comfortable with handling both bike and car which made us feel very safe. We cannot recommend Omsha travels enough. If you are looking for a travel agent, don’t look any further.Posted on OnAir3893952481020 August 2025Verified Best experience ever! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️Our trip to Bhutan has been one of the most memorable journeys of our lives, and a big reason for that is the incredible support we received from our travel agent Nawang, Omsha travels, guide, and chauffeur. From the very beginning, the process was made effortless—right from handling our visas and e-permits to ensuring every detail of our itinerary was perfectly organized.Our guide Sonaam was knowledgeable, patient, and always eager to share the deep cultural values and traditions of Bhutan in a way that truly touched us. Our chauffeur Tashi was equally wonderful—safe, courteous, and always with a smile, making long drives across the mountains not just comfortable but genuinely enjoyable.Most importantly, our travel agent took care of everything with great attention, leaving us free to simply enjoy the beauty of Bhutan without a single worry. The coordination between all three of them made us feel like we were traveling with family rather than professionals.Thanks to them, what could have been a complicated trip in a foreign country turned into the smoothest, happiest experience. We are returning with unforgettable memories, immense gratitude, and new friendships that we hope will last a lifetime.Highly recommend them to anyone planning a Bhutan trip—if you want hassle-free travel with warmth and genuine care, this is the team to go with!Posted on Explorer5203305963429 June 2025Verified Excellently organised Trip with Excellent Hotels and locations.
