Bagdogra To Thimphu Route

By AirBy RoadBy TrainBy Sea
Bagdogra to Thimphu2.0 hours8.0 hours--

If you are looking for the answer to how to reach Thimphu from Bagdogra, then your search ends here. Bagdogra is the town that has the second international airport in West Bengal. The total distance between Thimphu and Bagdogra is approx. 157 km by air. It takes just 1 hour to travel to Thimphu from Bagdogra by flight. There are no direct flights for Thimphu from Bagdogra. You can take a direct flight to Paro from Bagdogra and then travel to Thimphu from Paro.  

 

Bagdogra to Thimphu by flight:

The airport has two Bagdogra to Thimphu flights every week going to the Paro airport. Paro is the only airport in Bhutan and since it is only 1.5 hours away from Thimphu, going from Bagdogra to Thimphu by air is quite convenient. Bagdogra International Airport is the main airport in Bagdogra and Paro International Airport is the nearest airport to Thimphu at a distance of 47 km approx. The flights are run by Druk Air – Bhutan’s national carrier, and as of now they only fly on Sundays and Tuesdays from Bagdogra. The journey takes only 1 hour, and thus one can easily reach from Bagdogra to Thimphu in less than 2.5 hours altogether.

 

Bagdogra to Thimphu by Car: 

If one chooses to take the roadway, it is not an impossible one but certainly a very long-drawn one. Bagdogra to Thimphu distance is nearly 330 kilometers by road, which takes more than 8 hours to drive. So unless someone specifically wants to make the road trip, going from Bagdogra to Thimphu by road is not very wise. 

 

Bagdogra to Thimphu by Bus:

There is Bagdogra to Thimphu bus route which is easy to follow. There are buses from Bagdogra station which takes one to the border at Phuentsholing and from there another bus or taxi can take the visitor to Thimphu. From Phuentsholing, it takes around 5 to 6 hours to reach Thimphu. 

 

Bagdogra to Thimphu by Train: 

 

Hasimara is the nearest Indian railway station to Thimphu in Bhutan, which can be reached from NJP station in Siliguri or Sealdah station in Kolkata. In the same manner as before, one can take a cab or auto to the border at Jaigaon- Phuentsholing from Hasimara to reach Thimphu.

    Jayesh's 7 days trip to Thimphu

    We had an incredible experience with Green Zone Destinations during our trip to Bhutan. From the moment we arrived to the time we left, every detail was perfectly taken care of. The seamless entry and exit process made our journey stress-free, and their personalized service truly stood out. The s
    election of hotels was spot on, offering comfort and wonderful hospitality. The arrangements for the cab, driver, and guide were exceptional. A special thanks to our guide, Narendra, for his in-depth knowledge and warm demeanor, and to our driver, Tashi, who ensured we had a smooth and comfortable journey throughout. We’d also like to extend our gratitude to Sharmila for her personalized welcome at Thimphu, which made us feel truly special and set the tone for a wonderful trip. Exploring Bhutan with their help was an absolute joy. We couldn’t have asked for more. Everything was perfect, and we are completely satisfied. Thank you, Green Zone Destinations, for making our trip memorable!
