Bagdogra To Thimphu Route

	By Air	By Road	By Train	By Sea
Bagdogra to Thimphu	2.0 hours	8.0 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.

Bagdogra

Rakesh's 9 days trip to Thimphu

I had an unforgettable 9-day tour in Bhutan with Bhutan Inc. Everything was perfectly organized, and the owner Khina regularly checked in to ensure we were comfortable. Our guide Navin was incredibly knowledgeable and passionate, sharing fascinating insights about Bhutan’s culture and history, whil

e our driver Gyem Dorji navigated the roads safely and smoothly. From the breathtaking Tiger’s Nest hike to the stunning Punakha Dzong and delicious local food, every moment was special. The itinerary was well-balanced, allowing us to truly experience Bhutan’s beauty and serenity. Last but not the least The Indian counterpart Nima Dhai, ensured a smooth drive to and from Bagdogra Airport, accommodating my schedule perfectly. I highly recommend Bhutan Inc for a seamless, enriching, and hassle-free Bhutan adventure!

Dreadnaught's 7 days trip to Thimphu

AD Tours & Travels had curated the perfect itinerary for us based on our needs. Everything was well planned from the start - Stay, food, vehicle. We had one of the best weeks of experiencing Bhutan with our guide KinLee and Tshering guruji. They were polite, patient, thoughtful, jovial and good kno

wledge about the history, location awareness. KinLee had deep knowledge about all the places and events and shared great of information. Great combination of hotels and homestay and the hosts everywhere were caring and helpful with all our needs and also the stays were clean and comfortable with awesome views of the valleys. Visited Thimpu, Punakha, Phobjikha and Paro and ended our last day with a eventful trek to Tiger's Nest. Tried local dishes as per the recommendations and it was a great experience. Would like to thank Tandin and Saraswati for organizing everything and providing us with a good package. Will definitely visit again !! Also thanks to Travel Triangle for connecting us with the tour operator

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.

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.
