India to Paro Distance

With numerous airlines carrying passengers from India to Bhutan on a daily basis, opting for a flight is the best way to figure out how to go to Paro. Besides boarding a plane to Paro, one can also take the roadway, as Bhutan shares a border with four Indian states – West Bengal, Assam, Arunachal Pradesh and Sikkim. Though, there are only three land entrances allowed – one is at Jaigaon-Phuentsholing border in West Bengal, and the other two are in Assam.

Being the only city in Bhutan with an international airport, called Paro Airport located at the distance of just 7 kms from the city, the place is well-connected by flights to major cities of Indian countries, like: Kolkata, Mumbai, Bagdogra and Delhi as well. Hence, one can easily hop on a flight, and cover the India to Paro distance of around 1216 kms in a few minutes more than one hour.

Here is a brief guide to help you know how to reach Paro from India by flight, bus, and car.

By Air

With Bhutan’s national carrier, including Druk Air and Bhutan Airlines, operating flights from Paro to India, one can reach the destination in around 1 hour 15 minutes. And, as Kolkata is the closest Indian metro-city to Paro, flights operating from here remain quite packed. Though, there are frequent Mumbai to Paro and Delhi to Paro flights as well. The only airport that operates direct flights to Paro is Bagdogra near Siliguri. However, instead of providing a direct 3-4 hours journey to Paro, the flight becomes an extended one because of a stop-journey at Kathmandu or Bangkok, which are two other airports from where Paro receives international flights.

So, if you are wondering how to reach Paro by flight when your itinerary schedule clashes with such a flight, then go with our recommendation and take a flight to Kolkata and from there fly for only 1.5 hours to Paro airport without any hassle.

By Road

One can also opt for a road route to reach Paro from India. Though, the whole journey from distant cities like Mumbai or Delhi is quite time consuming.

By Bus:

Instead of opting for a direct road journey, one can choose to fly to Kolkata and from there board the long-distance luxury buses to Bhutan. These buses go to Thimphu, from where one can take a one and a half hour car ride to Paro.

By Car:

However, if one choose to take a complete road journey, it takes a little more than 4 hours to travel from Kolkata to Paro. There are road routes from Siliguri and Bagdogra and some other North Bengal cities as well. All of these finally lead to the Jaigaon-Phuentsholing border, from where it takes 4.5 hours to drive to Paro. On the Assam side, the two places where the border is open for entry are Samdrup Jongkhar and Gelephu. Samdrup Jongkhar is the one closer to Guwahati, i.e. 2.5 hours drive away.

We recently returned from our Bhutan trip organized by Travel Triangle, and we must say it was a truly wonderful experience! From the moment we landed till the end of our journey, everything was very well planned and executed. A big thank you to our guide Yeshi Wangchuk and our pilot (driver) Tsher

ing. Yeshi was incredibly knowledgeable, and he briefed us thoroughly at every step, ensuring we understood and appreciated the cultural and historical significance of the places we visited. Both Yeshi and Tshering were extremely cooperative and accommodating—they never hesitated with anything we asked for, always making sure we were comfortable and happy throughout the trip. The stays arranged by Travel Triangle were excellent—each one offered beautiful views and came with a delicious breakfast to start our days right. The hospitality and comfort made the experience even more memorable. Thanks once again to Travel Triangle for arranging such a beautiful and seamless trip. Bhutan will always have a special place in our hearts!

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...

Bikramjit Karmakar

Siliguri

Bikramjit's 7 days trip to Paro

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
