Kolkata To Thimphu Distance

By AirBy RoadBy TrainBy Sea
Kolkata to Thimphu3.0 hours---

Kolkata is the closest Indian metro city to Thimphu. Being the capital of West Bengal and the most important city in eastern India, Kolkata is well-connected with various international destinations. Bhutan is no exception. In fact, among all the other major cities of India, the most convenient transport options exist from Kolkata to Thimphu. Here are the different ways of how to go to Thimphu from Kolkata, explained in details.

By Air: Kolkata is the only airport that has regular flights to Bhutan. Kolkata to Thimphu flights actually land at Paro, which is an hour’s drive away from the capital. Paro is the only international airport in Bhutan and receives flights every day from numerous international locations like Kathmandu and Bangkok as well. Kolkata to Thimphu by air takes 3 hours in total – 1.30 hours from Kolkata to Paro and another 1.30 hours to drive from Paro to Thimphu.

By Road: Kolkata to Thimphu distance is around 875 kilometers via NH12, and this is a very commonly used route by those who want to avoid the flight for some reason. There is Kolkata to Thimphu bus service from the Esplanade area in Kolkata which leaves every Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday at 7 PM. These buses take 22 hours 30 minutes to go from Kolkata to Thimphu by road. A car trip will also take nearly the same amount of time. The vehicles will enter Bhutan at the Jaigaon-Phuentsholing border and from there drive up the remaining 165 kilometers to Thimphu.

 

By Rail: One cannot go from Kolkata to Thimphu by train because there are no networks. However, trains go till New Alipurduar or Hasimara stations in North Bengal which are very close to the Bhutan border. There are buses, taxis, and autos available till Phuentsholing, from where the tourists can take another transport to reach Thimphu.

    Divya's 7 days trip to Thimphu

    The tour was awesome and without any hassles. Our pickups and drops from airport and to airport were always on time, and the tour bus was always on time. This helped us from nuances of delays.full rating for this. The tour guide was quite gentle kind and pleasing and always answered all our quest
    ions, we had great discussions and cultural knowledge exchange with Bijay Gurung on the trip. The bus captain was quite amiable and was always drove with cool mind ensuring absolute safety. The hotel staff was well informed by our tour operator GreenZone (Sharmila Ma'am). It is highly notable that Sharmila Ma'am always responded all our questions how much ever basic and silly could be within no time. She has her WhatsApp always on, and gives a lot of priority to customers' queries and always answers promptly. Her continuous help and guidance made our journey very well informed and comfortable as we knew where we are ad what we are supposed to do. A big thank you to Sharmila Ma'am and her team for making my daughter's first birthday grand in Bhutan. Heartfelt Kadin Chhe to you and Bhutan. We highly recommend Green Zone and Sharmila Ma'am for all tourist activities for Bhutan. We also thank Travel Triangle for their easy to use application and prompt service for helping us choose the agent. Without travel triangle we won't be able to find the right Travel partner so easily.

    Suraj Kumar Sureka

    Kolkata

    Suraj's 7 days trip to Thimphu

    It was an amazing experience booking this trip with Green Zone Destination (GZD). The trip was well organized by Sharmila ji and near to perfect. She took care of everything and was very pro active in all her communications both before the trip and during the trip as well. She ensured that all prob
    lems / questions were answered and the trip experience was smooth. For example we were not happy with the food options in one of the hotels and we raised it to Sharmila ji. She immediately escalated the message to the hotel and we were treated with a wide spread of breakfast options in the next morning. The driver was calm and well behaved. The guide was quite knowledgeable. He provided insights / shared tales in all the places we visited. The best part was hiking to Tiger nest monastery. The view was breath taking. Overall very well planned. Kudos to GZD team and Sharmila ji :)

    Our trip to Bhutan was absolutely incredible, thanks to Sharmila and Green Zone Destination. The itinerary was seamless, and every detail was organized. Sharmila also helped with Bhutan money when we ran out of cash. Karma &Tshering .. Driver & Guide were very friendly and provided all the info, in
    sights & Help throughout the trip. The homestay & Rafting at Punakha was exhilarating experience, Trekking & Hot stone bath in Tiger nest.... , wind chill in Phobjika were the highlights of the trip.
