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.

Dwarkesh's 9 days trip to Paro

Bhutan INC Tours made the trip of Bhutan so amazing! They were professional, kind and detail-oriented from my first interaction with them. I really appreciate that Miss Lalita created a personalised itinerary for me that was based around my love for hiking and trekking. The team put together a custo

m off the beaten path experience which was everything I could have asked for and more. My guide Sir Ugyen Nima had so much knowledge which he shared at every opportunity. I was enriched by his experiences whilst on this journey together. Thank you Ugyen Sir! Special mention also needs giving out here about how awesome it was having Mr Yeshi (my driver/guide) who played some great tunes throughout our drives around various parts of beautiful Bhutan thus adding another layer onto an already enjoyable trip. Each day brought new accommodation facilities; all equally comfortable some days were more cozy, but still I had ample of sleep to get ready for the next day. The meals provided for breakfast and dinner were very healthy and even got to experience the authentic bhutanese cuisine! Getting to know Bhutan through Bhutan INC Tours has been nothing short of mind blowing! Thank you so much guys for showing me such an awesome time – words fail when trying to describe just how grateful I am towards everyone involved!! Special Thanks to Mam Khina and Lalita for taking out time from their busy schedule to have a short meeting. Much appreciated!

I had a wonderful experience during my recent trip to Bhutan. The behavior and politeness of the guide, driver, and hotel staff were exceptional.

Regarding the hotels, while some bedsheets weren't changed, the views from the hotel rooms were breathtaking. Particularly, the view from the Punakha hotel was amazing
