MyBhutan

As we prepared to land in Paro, the Drukair plane dipped past remote villages high up in the Himalayas, its wings seemingly brushing mountaintops as we continued our epic descent. I had just perused the in-flight magazine, which dutifully noted that there are just 16 Drukair pilots qualified for this route. But this picture-perfect arrival made my heart soar, not race. Magic is a term liberally doled out by those trying to capture the essence of the Land of the Thunder Dragon. And this moment made me understand why. — Karolyne Ellacott

Thank you to Vita Daily and especially for joining us! So happy you enjoyed your stay in Bhutan.

Humbled to have Sangwa be featured once again by Condé Nast Traveler and Juliet Kinsman highlighting 50 Quiet Places Around The World. Juliet’s beautiful writing captures the essence of the Sangwa experience:

“High up in the Himalayas, where the silence is as pure as the air, Sangwa Camp feels like it was conjured just for you and yours. A private, ephemeral retreat on a peak overlooking Bhutan’s most secluded valleys, this off-grid, ultra-light camp leaves no trace amid the stillness of cinematic landscapes. Pause where Layap herders weave yak-hair tents, monks whisper their chants to unseen deities, and age-old forests hide endangered red pandas and golden langurs. Sangwa is also a model of cultural preservation and community-based economic sustainability in this land-locked last Buddhist kingdom.”

Thank you, Juliet and CN Traveller. We appreciate the love!

From dormant volcanoes and salt pans to urban forests and library gardens, these are the places we go for peace and quiet

Our Luxury tented Sangwa Camp has been featured in gloobles' Under Canvas!

"And while Africa may have perfected the art of the safari tent, a new breed of nomadic camps is bringing this raw-luxe experience to some of the world’s wildest corners. Whether pitched on Arctic tundra, Mongolian steppe, or Omani desert, these roving retreats leave no trace once guests check out (or the season ends), and melt back into the wild as if they were never there."

Evening candlelit river-rafting rides in the subtropical town of Punakha, new as of 2024, are just one of the company's signature experiences. Other options include witnessing a rare cultural revival performance at Buddha Dordenma, the 169-foot gilded Buddha statue that looms over capital city Thimphu, and special dinners at secret locations."

A thoughtful blend of cultural preservation and modern luxury is reshaping Bhutan's travel identity, offering new depths of authenticity and comfort for those seeking something extraordinary.

“Once at the monastery, you can’t help but immerse yourself in the spiritual atmosphere of this sacred site. There’s a real sense of calm, and you begin to appreciate why so many devout Buddhists make this pilgrimage. The climb to Tiger’s Nest left a lasting impression on me and I would highly recommend it to anyone who is physically able to do the climb.”

Luxury travel specialist Ayesha Patel signed on for a trip to Bhutan – and soon found herself in a destination where the capital city has no traffic lights, happiness is a prized government metric, and the most famous site is a 17th century monastery set into a cliff, 10,240 feet above sea level. ...

“Look beyond the colors, everything here speaks,” whispers an old monk, perched like me on the temple steps. I’m starting to think he’s right."

Our luxury tented Sangwa Camp has been featured in Financial Review!

"Meaning “secret” or “hidden” in Bhutanese, Haa Sangwa is as lightfooted as they come. Sitting at an altitude of 2670 metres, the camp uses solar for all its lighting and fires for heating, is staffed only by inhabitants of the surrounding villages, and allows the land to regenerate when the camp packs up at the end of each season." — Nina Karnikowski
