What people love about touring Bhutan solo
- GOLDEN TRIANGLE OF BHUTAN - A PRIVATE TOUR
I was very pleased with the service that I received from our travel company. This was an amazing trip. Our guide was professional yet a lot of fun. The food was healthy and delicious. Thanks, MTA Team to make enjoyable trip.
- 6-Day Bhutan Highlights Tour: Thimphu, Punakha & Paro Discovery
The visit is well structured! They took us to the place and took care of everything from tickets to a great meal!
I thoroughly enjoyed my trip in Bhutan with Bhutan Acorn Tours. I only wish I had done the10 day trip to cover more territory. My guide, Tashi, was excellent. He has a good command of English and is very knowledgeable about Buddhism, which was one of my reasons for coming to Bhutan. Our driver, Sonam, was very responsible and managed the difficult winding roads with skill and without problems I always felt safe with the two of them. And the variety of sites visited and other activities kept the trip exciting. The hotels were all high quality. I highly recommend Acorn to anyone planning a trip to Bhutan. The company owner/manager was very responsive to my endless questions prior to arrival.

What our customers ask about Bhutan Tours for Solo Travelers
What types of accommodations can solo travelers expect on guided tours in Bhutan?
Tours in Bhutan offer a range of places to stay from modern hotels to local family homes. You'll find 3-4 star hotels as your standard accommodation with options like the upscale Taj Tashi in Thimphu. Some tours include stays with local families in places like Bumthang Valley where you can experience daily Bhutanese life. Most hotels including Zhingkham Resort in Punakha provide single rooms though this often comes with an extra cost. Past travelers speak highly of the mix "The hotels I stayed in were great and the homestay experiences allowed me to really connect with local families."
Which areas of Bhutan are most suitable for solo travelers?
The western region of Bhutan works best for solo travelers. This area includes Paro Thimphu and Punakha where you'll find good tourist facilities and regular group tours. Key sites here include Tiger's Nest Monastery and Punakha Dzong. Hotels like Tashi Namgay Resort in Paro offer reliable comfort and service. Previous guests often mention the area's accessibility: "The western circuit felt very safe and welcoming for solo travelers with plenty of other tourists and excellent guides."
How safe is Bhutan for solo travelers joining guided tours?
Bhutan stands out as one of Asia's safest travel spots. The country's low crime rates and Buddhist values that emphasize helping others make it especially secure for visitors. Licensed guides and drivers provide constant support whether you're hiking to remote temples or relaxing at Zhingkham Resort in Punakha. As one traveler put it: "As a solo female traveler I felt completely safe throughout the journey our guide was extremely protective and professional."
What is the typical single supplement cost for solo travelers in Bhutan?
Solo travelers usually pay an extra USD 100-150 for private rooms on 5-7 day tours staying at mid-range hotels like Meri Puensum Resort in Punakha or Hotel Amodhara in Thimphu. Many travelers choose to share rooms to avoid this cost. Guest feedback suggests satisfaction with shared arrangements: "the accommodations were comfortable and made me feel quite homely" when sharing at properties like Khangkhu Resort in Paro.
How much free time do solo travelers get on guided tours in Bhutan?
Tours typically give you 2-3 hours of free time each day especially in bigger towns like Paro and Thimphu. This lets you browse markets visit cafes or relax at places like Uma Paro. The schedule works well for most travelers: "The schedule had perfect balance - enough group time to bond but also freedom to explore independently or join others for optional activities."
