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.

    Shivam's 7 days trip to Thimphu

    Hotels were nice and comfy in Thimpu and Punakha but didn't like the hotel in Paro much. Our driver Mr. Sangay and our guide Ms Phuntso were very courteous and helpful. Our cab was super comfy and there was no issue throughout our trip.

    Lavanya's 7 days trip to Thimphu

    It was an amazing trip to Bhutan. Bhutan guide and driver were friendly and sophisticated. Hotels were good. Although we experienced cab issue while returning to Bagdogra Airport, agent arranged alternate driver. Other than that I definitely recommend travel triangle.

    Ag's 6 days trip to Thimphu

    The overall experience was very good. Our driver and travel guide in Bhutan were vert cooperative and accommodating. They made our experience worthwhile. The only part which was unpleasant was our driver who dropped us to Bhutan border on 27th, he was rude and was not cooperative at all.

    Reginald's 7 days trip to Thimphu

    We recently went on a trip to Bhutan, organized by Travel Triangle in collaboration with Bhutan GBS Tours and Travel. From start to finish, the trip was exceptionally well planned, ensuring we could relax and truly enjoy the beauty of Bhutan. A special mention goes to our guide, Sangay, and our dri
    ver, Ugain, whose professionalism and friendliness made the journey unforgettable. Sangay’s extensive knowledge and insightful explanations brought Bhutan’s culture and history to life, while Ugain ensured we traveled comfortably and safely throughout. Their warmth and dedication made us feel welcomed and cared for at every step. Travel Triangle and Bhutan GBS Tours and Travel exceeded our expectations with their seamless coordination and attention to detail. We are grateful for such an incredible experience and highly recommend their services to anyone planning a trip to Bhutan!The trip was well organized.

    This was my second time traveling with TravelTriangle, and once again, they exceeded all expectations! From start to finish, the entire process was seamless and stress-free. What stood out the most was their responsiveness and support throughout the trip. They were always just a message or call awa
    y, ready to assist with any questions or adjustments. It’s this kind of care and reliability that made me come back to them, and I’ll happily choose them again for future trips.

    Trip to Thimphu

    Most of the things are good and my experience is great. Only minor issue was with the food options and quality in first 3 hotel stays I had. Both cab driver and guide were professional with the services and always on time.
