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.

    Krishnaprasanth's 6 days trip to Thimphu

    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!

    Firstly, I would like to thank Tandin for recommending such beautiful accommodations throughout our trip. Our cab driver and guide were also very cooperative and shared valuable insights into the history of the places we visited. Overall, it was a truly wonderful trip for us. The best part was our s
    tay at Oro Villa in Thimphu and Lobesa in Punaka and Tashi namgay in Paro—it was amazing! The food was delicious, and the people there were super friendly.

    Namrata's 6 days trip to Thimphu

    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...

    Unforgettable Honeymoon Experience with Travel Triangle! My spouse and I recently booked our honeymoon trip through Travel Triangle, and it was truly an unforgettable experience! From the moment we contacted them, their team was incredibly professional, friendly, and attentive to our needs. Every
    detail of our trip was perfectly planned—from seamless transportation to breathtaking accommodations. The itinerary was well-organized, allowing us to explore beautiful destinations while still having plenty of time to relax and enjoy each other’s company. The tour guides were knowledgeable and always ready to assist, making our journey even more special.
