6 Flowing Bhutan Punakha River Rafting Tour Package | Thrill
Overview
This bhutan punakha river rafting tour package adds a rafting day to the standard Paro, Thimphu and Punakha circuit, floating the lower Mo Chhu river past rice terraces and forest on a stretch suited to first-timers and families alike. Day 2 still covers the Tiger’s Nest hike, and Day 4 crosses Dochula Pass before reaching Punakha, where Day 5 is given to the river itself. The Mo Chhu offers a gentler introduction to Bhutan’s rafting rivers than the faster Pho Chhu nearby, making this bhutan punakha river rafting tour package a comfortable fit for travellers without prior rafting experience.
Bon Voyagers manages the ground programme for this bhutan punakha river rafting tour package from arrival at Paro International Airport. A private vehicle covers every transfer across Paro, Thimphu and Punakha, with a guide for all six days. Five nights of deluxe hotel accommodation on double sharing basis include daily breakfast and dinner on MAP basis. The rafting itself is arranged through a registered local operator at Punakha, with safety equipment and a trained rafting guide provided on the day. The per person cost of this bhutan punakha river rafting tour package is ₹25,500.
