Information about Bhutan

The landlocked country of Bhutan, surrounded by India on three sides and Tibet China in the north, is a hidden gem of a country. Here is all the information about Bhutan you will need to plan a perfect itinerary for your trip.

Weather in Bhutan: The southern part of Bhutan enjoys a mild temperate climate, typical to the Terai-Dooars region of West Bengal and Assam. The change in the weather and temperature is mostly owed to the change in the altitude than the actual location. As one goes further up north, the height of the Himalayan peaks increase and goes as much as 7000 meters in the extreme north. The summers are warm and sunny in the south, including in the capital Thimphu, with an average temperature of 25°C. The winters go below 0°C by 2-3 °C. In the mountainous terrains, temperature falls by 7°C for every kilometer climbed, and snowfall is common during winter. You can get a complete range of temperature and precipitation from a detailed Bhutan travel guide. The best time to visit is during spring and early summer, from March to May, and autumn, from September to mid-November.

Nightlife in Bhutan: Nightlife in Bhutan is mostly centered on Thimphu. Nightclubs and pubs like Vivacity, Mojo Park, Space 34 and Club Ace are happening nightclubs with great music and flowing drinks. Mojo Park has one of the best local live music scenes one can ever find. Among other options, there are stages for Bhutanese cultural performances like Khuju Luyang or live Bhutanese music at the Drayangs with local beer and whiskey served at hand. A Bhutan guide will help you sift through the neighborhood and find the best spots to spend the night.

Food in Bhutan: Chillies are an important part of Bhutanese cuisine. One can find red chilies in some of the best dishes. Ema Datshi is almost like a national dish, which is basically chilies and cheese. Phaksha Paa (pork with chilies) and Jasha Maru (spicy chicken) are also famous. Red rice, local to Eastern Himalayan valleys, is a staple, so are dumplings stuffed with anything one can think of. Among drinks, Suja (butter tea) and Arag (alcohol) are lovely to warm you up in the cold.

Shopping in Bhutan: Before heading out for shopping in Bhutan, it is necessary to know where you can buy things from and what you should be buying. What you should buy is also an important thing to know. For assistance, you can always consult a Bhutan tour guide to know the places where you can shop to your heart’s content. Most people prefer to buy from the Government emporiums, as there is the assurance of authenticity and fair price. National Handicraft Emporium in Thimphu is one of the best places for shopping. Bhutan specializes in thirteen different forms of art and craft categories which they call Zorig Chusum. One should definitely consider buying thangkas, hand-woven textiles, handmade wooden bowls called dappas, Dzi beads, masks and other local handicraft items as souvenirs.

Festivals in Bhutan: The Tshechu festivals of Bhutan are known far and wide for their colors and spirit. The celebration is about Bhutan culture. They take place over 3-4 days on the tenth day of any lunar month. Paro Tsechu festival is most famous, closely followed by Punakha and Thimphu Tsechu. Jambay Lhakhang Drup festival, dedicated to Guru Rinpoche and the Haa summer festival match the Tshechu performances in their vibrancy and energy. All of these festivals are observed through folk performances, masked dance programs and historical storytelling of myths, legends, heritage and other interesting facts about Bhutan.

    Nairp's 7 days trip to Bhutan

    This was my first ever solo trip and that was to a most silent and slow moving country with the name Bhutan❤️ I went through an agency named Bhutan GNH Heritage Travel - Mr.Thapa. He was the first point of contact to share itenary for my trip and with lots of patience he heard my likes and dislikes,
    according to which itenary was presented back to me. There were many revisions and discussions for just 7 days of my trip which turned out to be a most memorable days so far in my 29 years

    Cachetangoel's 5 days trip to Bhutan

    The driver has not stretched beyond their fixed working hours to showcase us the local market. As hotels were far away from the local market otherwise one could himself visit there. Scenic beauty as a whole of full Bhutan.

    Kritika's 7 days trip to Bhutan

    My husband and I visited Bhutan in July 2024 and chose All Ways Tours and Travel to plan our trip. The arrangements made by All Ways Tours and Travel were exceptional, including the choice of hotels, food, guide, and vehicle. Bhutan impressed us with its rich culture, stunning natural beauty, and t
    he warmth of its people. Our wonderful experience was largely due to the efforts of our tour organizer, Ms. Heema, our guide, Mr. Kel, and our driver, Mr. Lama. They provided outstanding advice and support throughout our journey. Ms. Heema tailored the itinerary to meet our needs and was highly cooperative from the day we booked until we returned home. As vegetarians, we were initially concerned about the food, but Mr. Kel and Mr. Lama ensured we enjoyed delicious meals throughout the trip, particularly the local Bhutanese dishes. Mr. Kel was an exceptional guide, sharing wonderful insights into Bhutan's rich culture, accommodating last-minute requests, and creating memorable experiences, such as playing archery and darts along with local children and inviting us for a hearty lunch at his home with his family. No one else could have guided us better. Overall, it was a memorable experience, and I highly recommend All Ways Tours and Travel for anyone planning a visit to Bhutan. Exploring Bhutan's stunning landscapes, especially the awe-inspiring Cha le la pass, and conquering the challenging Tiger Nest hike were highlights. Indulging in delicious Bhutanese cuisine, trying our hand at archery, and experiencing a traditional hot stone bath in Paro were equally unforgettable. But the most cherished memory was sharing a hearty lunch with our wonderful guide Mr. Kel and his family.

    Rameshbarapatre's 7 days trip to Bhutan

    I am writing to wholeheartedly recommend Thapa as a travel agent for your Bhutan tours. Our recent trip to Bhutan was nothing short of extraordinary, thanks to Thapa's exceptional expertise, attention to detail, and warm hospitality. From the initial planning stages to the final farewell, Thapa
    went above and beyond to ensure our journey was seamless, enriching, and unforgettable. His deep knowledge of Bhutan's history, culture, and hidden gems made our experience truly unique and immersive. Thapa's organizational skills are impressive, handling every aspect of our trip with ease, from accommodations to transportation and activities. His ability to balance flexibility and structure allowed us to explore Bhutan's wonders while also enjoying relaxation and spontaneity. What sets Thapa apart, however, is his passion for Bhutan and its people. His love for the country is contagious, and his connections with local communities and experts enhanced our experience exponentially. We cannot recommend Thapa enough for your Bhutan travels. His dedication, expertise, and warmth will undoubtedly create an unforgettable adventure in this enchanting land. Thank you, Thapa and Guide Chencho for an extraordinary journey!

    Kunal's 9 days trip to Bhutan

    Best arrangement with utmost care of customers. Often asking if there are any issues. Couldn't have asked more than this from a travel agent. Sharmila from Greenzone enhanced the experience of Bhutan for me and my friends. Best decision I have made for the trip is to chose Greenzone. Thanks a lot! S
    pecial Mention- Guide: Lobzang and Driver: Kewal. They made the entire trip more memorable and enjoyable. Will surely try to visit again to relive those moments. Apart from the peace and beauty that Bhutan offers, loved the warmth people gave. And the best part is our Guide: Lobzang and Driver: Kewal. Everything else that Bhutan could have offered can be anticipated but not these two humble and friendly human beings. Also, loved the Homestay in Haa Valley.
