Six Senses Bhutan

Collection of 5 luxury lodges in the Himalayan Kingdom of Bhutan

Tailor-made tours available for 4, 5, 6, 8 or 10 nights, designed for you by our Bhutan experts

Sprinkled across the Kingdom's western and central valleys are five unique lodges, collectively referred to as Six Senses Bhutan. Each with its own character, environment and experiences, yet together they can be crafted into one enchanting journey through the beauty, spirituality and culture of the Happiest Place on Earth.

The Journey

You may visit a single lodge or, if you're curious about everything that Bhutan has to offer, we can plan a tailor-made journey that will include a combination of Thimphu, Punakha, Gangtey, Bumthang and Paro. Six Senses have developed a selection of 4, 5, 6, 8 and 10 night journeys which can readily be adapted to suit everyone's individual preferences or fully modified in to an entirely bespoke tour of the Kingdom.

Whatever you select, you will travel back in time and enjoy a journey that few people have had the opportunity to experience. Druk Yul, Bhutan’s official name, is known as the Land of the Dragon People with a rich cultural heritage that has largely remained hidden until its recent emergence onto the world stage. Your Six Senses GEM (Guest Experience Maker) will meet you upon arrival and accompany you on your khamsa ‘royal stroll’ through the Kingdom, sharing insights into the culture, history and local life of each valley as you go. Discover the country’s breathtaking natural beauty, meet and mingle with our Bhutanese friends and embrace the philosophy of a nation that is guided by the principles of ‘Gross National Happiness’. All khamsas are designed with just the right balance of meaningful encounters and experiences in mind along with a healthy dose of fun.
