Travel to Bhutan

A small kingdom nestled in the Himalayas between India and China, Bhutan is a beautiful country. With picturesque valleys fortified by the mighty Himalayas dotted with pious monasteries, dzongs, and temples, Bhutan is among the most stunning tourist destinations in the world. It is also known as the Happiest Kingdom, adorned with rustic yet colourful traditions and cultures. Phuentsholing, Samdrup-Jongkhar, and Gelephu are famous areas that attract international visitors, mainly via India. Be it by air, train or road, you shouldn’t worry about how to reach Bhutan. Check this guide to learn the best ways to travel to the gorgeous country.

By Air

One of the fastest ways to reach Bhutan is by Air. There are ample direct and connecting flights operating between Bhutan and India. Take a flight from from major cities such as Mumbai, Guwahati, Kolkata, and Delhi to the Paro International Airport which is the only international airport in Bhutan,just 7 km away. The airport is surrounded by peaks and located at a height of 7300 ft. above sea level, making it quite treacherous for flights take-off and landing. Due to its location, only a few pro-pilots are authorised to operate at the Airport. However, upon reaching the Airport, one can also avail a cab or car service across Phuentsholing and enjoy a tour of this enticing place.

By Train

There are no direct trains to reach Bhutan from India. However, one can board a train from Hasimara station or New Alipurduar stations, 17 and 60 kilometres away from Phuentsholing, the border town of Bhutan. From Phuentsholing, visitors can take a cab or bus to reach Bhutan.

By Road

Wondering how to go to Bhutan by road? Bhutan is well-connected with India by road. One can reach Bhutan from India via Jaigaon, Phuentsholing Border, Gelephu and Samdrup Jongkhar. While Phuentsholing shares a border with the Terai region of West Bengal, the other two are along the Assam border. It takes around three hours from Guwahati to Bhutan by road and the same from Siliguri. Additionally, one can also reach Bhutan from Bagdogra, which is just 170 km away.

By Bus:

One of the most convenient ways to reach Bhutan from India is by taking a bus from Kolkata to Phuentsholing. There are numerous direct buses operated by the Royal Bhutanese Government from Esplanade Station to Phuentsholing. A bus journey takes around 18 hours from Kolkata to cover the distance of 1,020.4 km while from Siloiguri it takes around 4 hours only.

By Car:

One can take a private car or hire a cab to travel from India to Bhutan. A road trip to Bhutan will navigate through its alpine zones and sub-tropical regions. One of the easiest way to reach Bhutan from India is from Assam. Drive through the Bongaigaon district in Assam to Gelephu, which is merely 50 Km away from Bhutan. However, one needs to show some documents at the border.

    Poorva's 7 days trip to Bhutan

    The experience with the tour operator was extremely smooth. They met the requirement as was requested. Also the discussion on the hotel properties was informative. Unlike other operators they did not show any resistance in booking properties not suggested by them but requested by me. The driver and
    car arranged was also cooperative. The tour guide was also well natured and accompanied us at all places. I will recommend the tour operator for Bhutan trips. Park Hotel in Phuentsholing is not recommended for stay as the breakfast has very limited menu and the mils served is just milk powder in hot milk. They do not have a medical kit in case of any medical emergencies which is very probable as it is a hilly region. The wifi is extremely slow that you can maybe use whatsapp just for chat. Tiger Nest resort does not have a good approach road and also the food service is slow. Post Card Dewa is highly recommended property if it fits your budget. Extremely cordial staff and the chef there is skilled. The food will be catered to your needs. The property is beautiful.

From the beginning, the team was extremely prompt and efficient in their responses, making the entire planning process smooth and hassle-free. A special th
    anks to Heema, our coordinator, who was exceptional throughout. She ensured every detail was taken care of, from accommodations to transportation and itinerary planning. Her attentiveness and proactive communication made us feel well-supported at every step. It’s clear that she genuinely cares about delivering a great travel experience. The trip itself was beautifully curated, allowing us to explore the serene beauty of Bhutan while feeling completely at ease. Thanks to Heema and the Allways Tours Travels team's impeccable coordination and thoughtful planning, this journey has become one of our most cherished memories.

Mr. Gyam Sir from Green Zone curated a wonderful itinerary which covered all the important places and suiting our needs. The hotels were very comfortable and accessible to the main market as we wanted. Gyam Sir not
    only was there in planning this itinerary but was also always was in touch and made sure we were comfortable during our entire trip which was a great gesture from his side. We are very thankful to him for that. Our guide who was with us throughout the trip, Mr. Jigme Tenzin Sir was a very knowledgable and a friendly person. His vast knowledge helped us in knowing about the Bhutanese culture and tradition. He was extremely helpful during our hike to the Tiger Nest understanding our pace and motivating us to complete our hike successfully. He also took care of an elderly person who was travelling with us at every place and we are very grateful to him for that. Mr. Roshan, our driver was also very punctual and experienced and we were comfortably reaching our destination right on time covering all places. The entire trip and the team of Green Zone Destination was fantastic and we would highly recommend to travel to Bhutan with them.
