Bhutan is famously picturesque, and so are its plants and animals. Don't miss out on seeing this beautiful country.

Ideal Duration

There is just so much to see in Bhutan that to do justice to all of it, you would have to stay in the country for the entire 30 days that your visa is valid! However, not all of us have that much time on hand, so if you were to shorten your trip, you would need at least five days excluding your travel time to make the best of your visit.

Best Time to Visit

Bhutan is a beautiful place to visit at any time of the year—depending on how well you manage the cold weather! October to December is the perfect time, as the rains have just ceased, leaving the valleys carpeted in beautiful blooms of rhododendrons, the famous flower that blooms in Bhutan! You may also get a few pleasant showers of rain which will make your holiday that much more enjoyable. From January to March the weather gets unbearably cold and you may not be able to enjoy your holiday to the maximum. From April onwards, the climate gets warmer and though you may not get to enjoy the beautiful flowers, you can still have a wonderful time in the warm sunshine and cool mountain breeze!

How to Reach

Indians do not require a visa to visit Bhutan, but you will have to carry along valid government-issued identity proof of you being an Indian citizen.

By Air

Paro International Airport is the only international airport in Bhutan, and is surrounded by mountains at a height of 7300 ft. This airport receives flights regularly from most Indian cities. There are other domestic airports in Bhutan which receive flights from the only airline Druk Air.

By Road

If you have the means, make sure you travel by car. The drive to Bhutan is scenic and a must-see all on its own. The only land borders open to travel by car are the ones at Phuentsholing, Samdrup Jongkhar and Gelephu. The journey from Guwahati to these land entry points is approximately three hours. You can either drive a car or take a bus. Plenty of buses ply from cities near Bhutan and are run by the Royal Bhutanese Government.

By Train

Travelling by train is a bit more complicated as there is no direct train route to Bhutan. You will have to reach a railway station near Bhutan, like the ones at Siliguri or Kolkata and then take a car or a bus to Bhutan. Thus, this method of travel is complicated and is not recommended.
