Siliguri To Bhutan Distance

	By Air	By Road	By Train	By Sea
Siliguri to Bhutan	1.0 hours	-	-	-

Siliguri is the main town in North Bengal. The town acts as a central hub for all sorts of transportation towards further north or north-east. Be it flight or bus or car, routes spread around like nerves from Siliguri towards the mountains. Bhutan is not an exception. Siliguri to Bhutan can be reached by all three forms of transport – flights, bus, and train. They might not be straight to the capital Thimphu, but close enough to the border. Here are the different ways how to reach Bhutan from Siliguri.

By Air: The closest airport to Siliguri is the Bagdogra International Airport, only 23 minutes away from the town. Bagdogra is the only way to avail Siliguri to Bhutan flight. There are regular flights to Paro flying out of Bagdogra, operated by Druk Air and Bhutan Airlines. Druk Air is the national carrier of Bhutan and also the flag-bearer of the dragon symbol.

By Road: If a car is hired for going from Siliguri to Bhutan by road, then the route to Jaigaon has to be availed. Siliguri to Bhutan distance till the border at Phuentsholing is around 157 kilometers, and it takes 3 hours 45 minutes on the car to go from Siliguri to Bhutan border. From Phuentsholing, Thimphu takes another 2 hours to reach. The road is quite smooth and well-maintained. There are many car rental agencies in Siliguri who drive to Bhutan. These cars have to get permits at the border for traveling further than the Phuentsholing area. However, Indians do not need any visa but only an identity proof to get into Bhutan. There are Siliguri to Bhutan bus services as well, from Tenzing Norgay Central Bus Terminal on Hill Cart Road. This too shall take you till Phuentsholing, from where there are other buses and taxis to Thimphu or Paro.

By Rail: The main broad gauge train station of Siliguri is called New Jalpaiguri Station. To go from Siliguri to Bhutan by train, one must avail the Hasimara or New Alipurduar-bound trains that leave from NJP. Hasimara is the closer one, only 17 kilometers away from Bhutan border. From these stations, there are taxis or autos to take you to Phuentsholing.

Abhiram's 6 days trip to Bhutan

The itenary was planned well. Special mention to Deepa from AD tours and travels for coordinating and being always available over call / message throughout the trip. Our guide Dorji and Shring were good and friendly. They took care of us as guests and not just tourists. They shared stories which h

elped us to understand the Bhutan's local culture. Overall thanks to travel traingle for making the trip memorable.

Bangalore

Ramesh's 7 days trip to Bhutan

We can't thank AD Tours and Travels enough for making our recent family trip to Bhutan absolutely unforgettable. From the very beginning, our coordinator Meg, meticulously handled every detail, ensuring our hotel bookings and itinerary were perfect. Our driver (Tshering) and tour guide (Yeshi Wangch

uk) were the stars of the show - friendly, cheerful, and always going the extra mile to create lasting memories. They accommodated all our requests, including changes to the itinerary, and were incredibly supportive during the challenging hike to Tiger's Nest. Our guide's encouragement and assistance were truly invaluable. They even ensured our vegetarian preferences were met at all the hotels throughout our stay. AD Tours and Travels truly exceeded our expectations and we can't wait to recommend them to everyone we know.

Ajay Jaisingh

New delhi

Ajay's 6 days trip to Bhutan

Exceptional service by the guide and driver. Very comfortable car. The hotel in Pheuntsoling was old and very far from the town so not recommended The calmness and serenity of the places visited was an overwhelming experience. The quiet drives with no honking was a lesson for all drivers in India

Lakshmanan Solayappan

Chennai

Lakshmanan's 10 days trip to Bhutan

Fantastic Trip. Driver, Ugyen was excellent ! Helped us with all our wishes, be it finding the right place to eat or shop or visit (based on our requests). Guide was good. Hotels were good and extremely clean (like in all parts of Bhutan) ! Bhutanese are very nice people , respectful and helping.

In fact, we felt pampered during our 10 day tour. We followed the itinerary and made minor modifications based on our pref. If there is one improvement area - I would say Gaikling Guest House, Phobjikha did not have hot water in the bathroom, when we visited. Learn there was a power problem the previous day due to heavy snowfall causing disruption. However, we did have had room heaters, lights and food was available in the restaurant. Staff was very courteous too and apologetic for non-availability of hot water in bathroom. Overall a very nice experience !!

Kallol Samaddar

Kolkata

Kallol's 7 days trip to Bhutan

We had a very pleasant honeymoon. It will always be memorable in the best possible way. We had 7 days trip to thimpu, punakha and paro. Deki from AD tours helped us create an excellent package and our cab driver Bhim and guide Nima were the most friendly people we ever met. They made us feel like ho

me, guided us through and drove beautifully all along. The hotels were all excellent except one, park hotel in phuntsholing where service could have been better. Overall another mesmerizing experience with travel triangle. We enjoyed it thoroughly. Our cab driver Bhim and guide Nima has been real pleasure to travel with.

Nitbikash's 7 days trip to Bhutan

The local travel agent is totally unprofessional. He didn’t book hotels prior to trip which were agreed in travel itinerary and changed the hotels.

Deepa Nair

Bengaluru

Deepa's 7 days trip to Bhutan

Vishwanath Hiremath

Bangalore

Vishwanath's 7 days trip to Bhutan

We had a great experience with Bhutan Inc. The hotels were great, the services provided by guide and driver were good as well. Takshang valley hike

Binit Kumar

Pune

Binit's 6 days trip to Bhutan

The itinerary prepared by Travel agent is beneficial only for the travel agency as it skips major tour attractions. The last day of the trip in Phuentsholing is just to increase the duration of the tour by 1 more night. Also the hotel booked in Phuentsholing and was cheap and did not feel like 3-sta

r hotel. Except for driver and tour guide, the first Mantara hotel - most of the other things were not upto mark. Travel Triangle should make all the reviews of tour agent public for the travellers to make a better decision. Bhutan is beautiful and people are also nice.
