Travel to Bhutan

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.

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.

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.

Namrata's 6 days trip to Bhutan

I never thought I will experience my first Bhutan trip to be so wonderful... Specially because of my travel agent Mr. Harry, my tour guide Mr. Diliram Dahal and his friend who was our driver... They were so friendly that I felt like I wasn't in other country, like I was visiting my home... Even when I was in trouble, they helped me with ease... They treated us like family and made my decision to visit Bhutan worth it... I would love to chose Travel Triangle again...

Mikhil Raj Ga

Bikramjit's 7 days trip to Bhutan

It is OFF SEASON but yet the package was on higher side, hotel of Phuentsholing and Paro was not upto the mark. At Paro it was far off from city centre between a farm land. There was a clear communication from my side to close the deal within 50k but came to know at time of immigration that SDF was additional it didn't set the tone right for the trip also some sight seeing were not covered, anyways it's over now and almost a safe trip. The journey was nice with nice almost new car of Mr.Lobzang and guide Mr. Sonam was also good. Couple of restaurants were good and Thimpu hotel was great
