Legend has it that Guru Rinpoche, also known as Padmasambhava, the revered Buddhist master who brought Buddhism to Bhutan, flew to this site on the back of a tigress. The tigress, believed to be a manifestation of his divine consort, Yeshe Tsogyal, helped him travel to this remote cliffside to subdue a local demon. Upon arrival, Guru Rinpoche meditated in a cave for 3 years, 3 months, 3 weeks, 3 days, and 3 hours. His meditation led to the sanctification of the entire region and the establishment of Buddhism in Bhutan. The Tiger’s Nest Monastery was later built around this cave in 1692, clinging precariously to the cliffside at 3,120 meters above sea level.

Discover How 18,433+ Travelers Experienced Genuine Cultural Immersion, From Sacred Mask Dances To Intimate Village Homestays Through Our Bhutan Cultural Tour!

Did the 5D4N Druk Path trek with Druk Asia plus pre-hike sightseeing for acclimatisation and the Tigers Nest day hike at the tail end of the trip. The entire experience was excellent. My guide Sonam Lhendup was extremely knowledgeable about the history, culture, iconography of Bhutan in general and the various sights (Dzongs, temples etc) in particular. This went far beyond what you could read about in guidebooks and was very educational and illuminating. On top of that he was also an excellent trekking guide - the logistics were all very well planned, and the hiking distance and the duration per day was well thought out. Sonam also had an amazing knowledge of the birdlife and flora we saw along the way, often pointing out and identifying birds from their calls alone.

My guide Kinley and driver Namgay were instrumental in making my trip relaxing and enjoyable. Namgay was a careful and skilful driver, and I felt comfortable and safe. Kinley was an enthusiastic guide. He gave indepth explanation at each place that we visited, and provided interesting cultural and religious context. For someone who does not know much about Buddhism, this is very informative. We also had many exchanges on Bhutan society and Kinely patiently answered my questions on education, work and other aspects of modern Bhutan. I come away feeling that I not only saw the historical Bhutan but also had a feel of the modern Bhutan and its aspirations in the 21st century. In our trek to Tiger Nest, I had some discomfort due to the altitude. Kinley was solicitous and constantly checking to see that I felt okay. This is much appreciated.

I recently had the pleasure of embarking on my first 7 days solo trip to the happiest country in the world, Bhutan, also known as the Land of the Thunder Dragon, with SoulTrips. I must say, it was an unforgettable experience thanks to my tour guide, Kinley, and driver, Kuenga. Kinley was exceptional in every way. His extensive knowledge of the local culture and history added immense value to my trip. He took care of every detail, ensuring that I was comfortable and well-informed throughout the journey. His friendly, fun-loving, and caring nature made me feel at ease, and his passion for sharing Bhutan’s culture and history was truly inspiring.

Our wonderful guides, Yeshey and Thinley, helped us fully experience Bhutanese culture. In just three days, we visited all the places we planned, enjoyed delicious local food, and were lucky enough to attend the Dechenphu Tshechu at the sacred Dechenphug Lhakhang monastery. We felt safe and welcomed throughout the trip. We asked many questions, and our guides were always happy to provide answers. Exceptional service and experience!
