6 NIGHTS COMO BHUTAN & 2 NIGHTS BANGKOK JOURNEY

6 NIGHTS COMO BHUTAN & 2 NIGHTS BANGKOK JOURNEY

In a country where happiness is measured not by wealth, but by well-being, there is no better way to experience the spirit of Bhutan than with COMO Uma Paro and COMO Uma Punakha – two world-class boutique lodges where modern wellness meets raw nature and deep-rooted Himalayan culture.

Your journey begins at COMO Uma Paro, perched on a pine-covered hillside overlooking the majestic Paro Valley. From here, you can easily explore the sacred Tiger’s Nest Monastery, practice yoga or meditation, or simply restore your body and mind at the serene COMO Shambhala Retreat.

The path then leads to COMO Uma Punakha, a hidden sanctuary nestled deep in a lush river valley by the tranquil Mo Chhu River. With only a handful of private suites, it offers absolute seclusion – ideal for those seeking silence, connection to nature, and moments of true healing.

The ceremony is meant to dispel ignorance and celebrate the workings of life and interdependence in nature.

    • Leaving Thimphu, the road to Punakha becomes even more spectacular as you cross the 3,000m Dochu La Pass, where you can see 108 chortens (Buddhist stupas), forests of colourful prayer flags, and, if the weather is clear, panoramic views of the majestic Himalayas.
