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.

Rakesh Nk

Bagdogra

Rakesh's 9 days trip to Bhutan

I had an unforgettable 9-day tour in Bhutan with Bhutan Inc. Everything was perfectly organized, and the owner Khina regularly checked in to ensure we were comfortable. Our guide Navin was incredibly knowledgeable and passionate, sharing fascinating insights about Bhutan’s culture and history, whil

e our driver Gyem Dorji navigated the roads safely and smoothly. From the breathtaking Tiger’s Nest hike to the stunning Punakha Dzong and delicious local food, every moment was special. The itinerary was well-balanced, allowing us to truly experience Bhutan’s beauty and serenity. Last but not the least The Indian counterpart Nima Dhai, ensured a smooth drive to and from Bagdogra Airport, accommodating my schedule perfectly. I highly recommend Bhutan Inc for a seamless, enriching, and hassle-free Bhutan adventure!

Dreadnaught's 7 days trip to Bhutan

AD Tours & Travels had curated the perfect itinerary for us based on our needs. Everything was well planned from the start - Stay, food, vehicle. We had one of the best weeks of experiencing Bhutan with our guide KinLee and Tshering guruji. They were polite, patient, thoughtful, jovial and good kno

wledge about the history, location awareness. KinLee had deep knowledge about all the places and events and shared great of information. Great combination of hotels and homestay and the hosts everywhere were caring and helpful with all our needs and also the stays were clean and comfortable with awesome views of the valleys. Visited Thimpu, Punakha, Phobjikha and Paro and ended our last day with a eventful trek to Tiger's Nest. Tried local dishes as per the recommendations and it was a great experience. Would like to thank Tandin and Saraswati for organizing everything and providing us with a good package. Will definitely visit again !!
