How To Reach Bhutan?
Earlier, it was difficult to reach Bhutan as the frozen paths in the North and dense jungles in the South. After 1960, Bhutan was made well-connected to various countries by different modes of transport like air, train and road. Here is a detailed list of numerous modes of reaching Bhutan from which you can choose according to your budget and time.
The one and only airport to reach Bhutan is located in Paro namely, Paro International Airport. Apart from this, there is a domestic airport situated in the south-central part of Bhutan called Gelephu Airport. The only airline which operates regular flights from selected places of the world to Bhutan is the National Air Carrier of Bhutan. One of the other ways to reach Bhutan is via Bagdodra Airport. This airport receives many flights from major cities of India as it is not far away from the Bhutanese border and takes only a four-hour drive to reach there. While travelling through plane, you can witness the mesmerizing scene of the Paro Valley and high peak mountains.
There are only three main land borders which tourists have to cross to reach Bhutan, that is, Gelephu, Phuentsholing and Samdrup Jongkhar.
Gelephu, situated in the south-central part of Bhutan, is around 250 kms away from Thimpu, the capital city. The journey includes passage via the alpine zone and sub-tropical areas of Bhutan which makes the journey more interesting. The passage crosses three districts and takes ten hours to cover the journey.
Located in the south-west side of Bhutan, Phuentsholing is approximately 170 kms away from the Bagdodra Airport in West Bengal (India). It takes half of the time in comparison with the Gelephu journey.
Samdrup Jongkhar is positioned in the south-east part of Bhutan which is 150 kms away from the capital city of Assam, Guwahati. This three-hour route takes travelers through Mongar, Bumthang, Trongsa and many more places.
It is not at all shocking to know that travelers from India and can also opt for bus services from Kolkata. One can get a direct bus from the Esplanade Station in Kolkata to Phuentsholing. The 18-hour journey is usually comfortable as the bus services are provided by the Royal Bhutanese Government. Besides this, Siliguri has regular bus service to Jaigaon which takes less than four hours to reach there.
Paro International Airport is the only airport in this country that to several countries of the world like India, Europe, Nepal, and Thailand. If vacationers want to take a road route to Bhutan, buses ply from Bhutan to Kolkata, Siliguri, and Phuentsholing, and vice versa. To reach Bhutan by car, tourists can drive through three land border crossings located along the southern border, only from India.
Unfortunately, there is no direct train route to Bhutan. As a result, travelers ultimately have to book a cab or bus from the nearby railway stations. Some of the best options in India are Hasimara, New Jalpaiguri Station and New Alipurduar.
Located in West Bengal, Hasimara is only 17 kms away from Phuentsholing. Travelers can catch Indian railways to reach here. Apart from this, New Jalpaiguri Station in Siliguri is one of the most convenient options from where you can hire direct taxis or buses to reach Jaigaon. Whereas, New Alipurduar is 60 kms away from Jaigaon.

The Best Time to Visit Bhutan
Spring (March to May) and autumn (September to November) are the best seasons to visit the Himalayan kingdom of Bhutan. In spring, the temperatures range between 3°C to 25°C, while in autumn they hover between 10°C to 23°C. Even with the wild variations in temperatures, these two are the best seasons to be in Bhutan, because it doesn’t rain. Bhutan receives most of its rainfall during summer and it snows during winter. The mild weather of the shoulder seasons is perfect and the best time to visit Bhutan for sightseeing and exploring the wild beauty of Bhutan.
Not only can you get your sightseeing done without any interruptions, but you also find all the main tourist attractions open during these two seasons. Some parts of the country may become inaccessible due to heavy rains and snowfall during summer and winter respectively. Summer is still a good time to visit Bhutan if you can brave the rains and settle for a curtailed itinerary. But the subzero winter temperatures and the snow will keep most of the travellers away during the season.
In spring you can join the locals in celebrating the Paro Festival, Gomkora Festival and the Ura Yakchoe. Autumn has a bigger spread of celebrations with festivals such as Thimphu Tshechu, Wangdue Tshechu, Tamzing Phala Choetpa, Jambay Lhakhang Tshechu, Jomolhari Mountain Festival and the Black Necked Crane Festival.
How to Reach Bhutan
You can reach Bhutan by air and road from India. There is no direct rail connectivity. The fastest way to reach Bhutan is by air. Though Bhutan has many domestic airports, Paro International Airport is the sole gateway into Bhutan by air from outside. Druk Air, Bhutan’s national airline, operates regular flights from Kolkata, Bagdogra, Guwahati, Gaya, Delhi and Mumbai. Among these only Kolkata enjoys direct connectivity to Paro. The rest all offer connecting flights. Kolkata also has the most frequent of flights.
A road trip into Bhutan is the most popular way to get into the country. You have a choice of 3 points of entry into Bhutan from India:
- Jaigaon - Phuentsholing Border
- Samdrup Jongkhar
Out of these, The Jaigaon - Phuentsholing border is by far the most popular option. It is the most easily accessible border crossing, and this is also where you get the entry permit quite easily. All Indian citizens travelling to Bhutan must obtain an ‘Entry Permit’ from the Immigration Office of the Royal Government of Bhutan. This entry permit will allow you to explore Paro and Thimphu only. To venture further into the country, you must get a ‘Special Area Permit’ from the Royal Government of Bhutan Immigration Office located in Thimphu.
You can either drive yourself, hire a taxi or hop on to a bus. Private taxis and buses are available from Bagdogra, New Jalpaiguri, Siliguri and Kolkata. At 18 hours, Kolkata to Phuentsholing is the longest bus journey while it takes around 4 hours from Bagdogra and Siliguri.
Where to Go in Bhutan
Bhutan is a deceptively tiny kingdom with a whole lot of places to explore. From monasteries to national parks and museums, here are some of the best places to visit in Bhutan.
Tiger’s Nest Monastery:
This is, without a doubt, the most iconic and the holiest place to visit in Bhutan. It is the sacred monastery of the Guru Rinpoche and is a place of pilgrimage for the locals. Legends say that Guru Rinpoche rode a tiger to this location and spent three months in meditation. Hugging the cliff face above the Paro Valley, it offers a stunning panorama of the surroundings. A standard entry permit allows you access to this beautiful monastery. The cave temple inside the monastery is one of the attractions here, along with the spectacular views.
Punakha Dzong:
The second-largest Dzong (fortress) in Bhutan is home to almost all the national treasure of the country. Built between 1637 and 1638, it is also the second oldest building in Bhutan. It is also the final resting place for the sacred remains of Ngawang Namgyal and the tetrön Pema Lingpa. The fort itself is a wonder of architecture as it doesn’t use a single nail in its construction. The sacred relics of the Southern Drukpa Lineage and a sizeable collection of intricate paintings are worth your time.
National Museum of Bhutan:
The National Museum of Bhutan is a treasure trove of the country’s rich history. It chronicles more than 1,500 years of Bhutan’s culture in about 3,000 exhibits. From ancient sculptures to modern paintings, it is all there. The natural history section catalogues all the flora, fauna and wildlife of the region. There’s an entire section dedicated to ceremonial masks used in celebrations around Bhutan. A comprehensive photo gallery captures and showcases the cultural timeline. The museum building is also used as a venue for traditional dance ceremonies.
Zuri Dzong:
Dating back to the 12th century, this is one of the oldest standing dzongs of Bhutan. Zuri Dzong is a historically and culturally significant structure as it is believed to have been built at the site of a cave where Lord Buddha is said to have meditated during the 8th century. Secured inside double palisade walls and accessible only by a bridge, the 5-storey-tall structure offers mesmerising panoramas of the Paro Valley. This is one of the best and most popular hiking destinations in the region.
Jigme Dorji National Park:
The Jigme Dorji National Park is a veritable treasure chest of wildlife conservation. It is home to a multitude of rare animal and bird species such as Snow Leopard, Indian Leopard, Serow, Clouded Leopard, Himalayan Blue Sheep, Sambar Deer, Barking Deer, Pika, Marmot, Goral, Red Panda, Himalayan Black Bear, Ravens and Black Musk Deer. With such a variety of wildlife on offer, the National Park is a thriving ecosystem that is a result of aggressive conservation efforts. In addition to the animals, the park also houses 300 medicinal plants species along with around 39 types of butterfly species.
Food in Bhutan
The cuisine of Bhutan has a distinct flavour profile that is dominated by liberal use of spices as well as chillies. Surprisingly, even though there are plenty of meat dishes available, a sizable population is vegetarian. Due to its proximity to India and China, you can easily find both cuisines throughout the country. Here are some local delicacies that you should try on your vacation to Bhutan.
Jaju Soup - A Traditional Soup:
This soup is traditionally made from sun-dried turnip leaves, although they can occasionally be replaced by spinach or other leafy greens for variety. It uses a milk and butter base to create a rich concoction that holds a special place during festivals and special occasions. You might find variations of this throughout Bhutan. Eat this with rice and curry as the locals do. Also, try the heartier version with cheese added to enhance the flavour and the texture.
Red Rice - A Local Staple:
Red rice is a medium-grain variety of rice that finds its way into the daily diet of most of Bhutan. Grown mostly in the Paro region, it is nurtured by the mineral-rich glacier water. It is only partially milled, so it cooks faster and retains more nutrition from the bran. This gluten-free rice has a distinctly nutty and earthy flavour that complements the spicy dishes quite well. You will find the rice as an accompaniment in a variety of Bhutanese dishes such as Ema Dashti and Shamu Dashti.
Jasha Maru - Spicy Chicken Stew:
A complete contrast to the mellow Jaju, Jasha Maru is a lip-burningly spicy local delicacy. The stew is prepared using diced chicken, ginger, garlic, onion, chillies, tomato and coriander leaves. But it is the ginger that gives Jasha Maru its soul. Usually served with generous helpings of chicken broth, the poultry may be replaced by other meats in some other variations of this flavourful dish. You will find this served mostly with red rice, although some places may serve it with buckwheat noodles. Do try it but be prepared for the after-burn.
Zow Shungo - A Quick Meal:
The Zow Shungo is a proud proponent of the Bhutanese philosophy of avoiding needless waste. It is often a mishmash of leftover vegetables that can be tossed together in a jiffy and is served with red rice. Though this is essentially a way to cut down on food wastage, you will find the Zow Shungo served in restaurants around Bhutan. Be sure to try this for its unique taste and texture that will vary from one place to another. By the way, ‘Zow’ means ‘splendid’ in the local language.
Ema Datshi - A Marriage of Cheese and Chillies
Yak cheese and chillies. Ema Datshi is a decadent combination of these two primary ingredients that come together beautifully to form the national dish of Bhutan. Garlic, onions and tomatoes add to the taste and texture of the stew, but the gravy retains the buttery colour of the cheese. Don’t be fooled by its tame appearance though. Ema means chillies in Bhutanese and they make their presence felt with every bite. As usual, you will find this dish served with omnipresent red rice.
Things to Do in Bhutan
While most tourists travelling to Bhutan expect a quiet holiday, Bhutan has so much more to offer than serenity and clean air. You can easily pair your stretches of tranquillity with intermittent bursts of adventure to keep your holiday more interesting. Here are some recommended things to do in Bhutan.
Relax in the Hot Springs at Gasa Tsachu:
Soaking in natural hot springs, especially amidst the cool weather of Bhutan is a pleasure that needs to be experienced to be believed. Gasa Tsachu is in the same district as Jigme National Park. It is a collection of natural hot-water springs that offer a remarkably relaxing experience in open-air communal tanks. This is a truly rewarding experience, especially after an arduous trek across the national park. Take a cue from the locals and dissolve your tiredness in the proper Bhutanese way.
Go River Rafting on Po Chu River:
After a relaxing soak in the hot springs, a river rafting expedition on the River Po Chu seems like an exciting prospect. But far from the usual rapids accompanied by strong currents and loud screams, river rafting in Bhutan is almost a Zen-like experience. You are carried along on gentle currents along the river’s flow flanked by picturesque scenery on both the riverbanks. The 16-km-long route gives you the perfect opportunity to admire the natural beauty of Bhutan from a different perspective.
Trek in the Snow:
With its varied topography, Bhutan is a trekker’s paradise. As you make your way through exquisite natural landscapes, the snow-capped mountains, the lush green valleys and the crystal-clear lakes make a magnificent background for your trek. Some of the treks are physically demanding, but most are easy to conquer with a basic level of fitness. But, regardless of the difficulty level, they will all test your resolve and check your breaking point. So, put your best foot forward and explore the magnificence of the Bhutanese landscape on foot.
Score a Bulls Eye:
Archery is more that Bhutan’s national sport. It is a passion that thrives in every Bhutanese heart. All around the country you will find throngs of men dressed in ghos (traditional robes) shooting at tiny targets sometimes placed as far as 140 metres away. You can test your aim at one of these archery fields that are present in every Bhutanese village. The archery tournaments between villages are colourful spectacles that can get as rowdy as any international sporting events. The singing, heckling and cheering lend a festive air to the intense competitions. The Coronation Archery tournament and the Yangphel tournament are the biggest tournaments of the year.
Dance with the Monks:
The wonderful Bhutanese culture is full of song and dance that celebrate age-old traditions and beliefs. Among these the ‘Tsechu’ reserves a special place among the local populace. Taking place on the 10th day of every Tibetan lunar month, it is the time for dancing, revelry and catching up with friends. But the highlight of the festival is the ‘Cham’ dance performed by monks dressed in intricate costumes and traditional masks. Each of these dances carries a moral message that is conveyed in an entertaining format. The end of the festival is marked by the unfurling of a giant Thangka or Throngdrei. *Disclaimer- The family discount mentioned for this destination is defined basis 2 adults & 1 child combination.

Best Bhutan Tour Packages in 2024
Bhutan tourism: a traveller’s guide to explore the kingdom of happiness.
We all deserve a travel holiday to be somewhere where we can find happiness and unwind completely. There's no better place than the tranquil kingdom of Bhutan, where Gross National Happiness is more important than Gross National Product.
Bhutan possesses scenic valleys, gigantic mountains and landscapes, dotted with spiritual monasteries at every nook. It is also soaked in myths and legends, like no other country in the world. The streets here brim with monks and houses with prayer flags. The rings of bells from monasteries echo in the air, and nature's scent will be all around you. This place is a mecca for those who need a break from the hustle and bustle of regular city life.
Tired of comparing Bhutan tour packages? Pick the best Bhutan tour package for yourself after referring to the following information.
Bhutan Tourism: Best Time to Visit
October to December is the best time to book Bhutan tour packages as the sky is clear. January and February are too wintry to travel, but from then until April, the climate remains pleasant for travelling. If you plan for the Bhutan trip in late spring, you will be captivated by the beauty of the famous rhododendrons, blooming spectacularly throughout the valleys.
Bhutan Trip: Visa for Indians
Indian citizens do not require a visa for travelling with Bhutan tour packages. You will receive a free entry permit by the Bhutanese government upon arrival in the country. All you need to carry is your identity card or passport to explore the happy kingdom with Bhutan tour packages. While browsing Bhutan tour packages, make sure you book the one inclusive of travel entry permits if you want to ease down your work.
Bhutan Tourism: Best Places to Visit
While booking Bhutan tour packages, make sure you add the below-mentioned places to the itinerary.
The Hanging Taktsang Monastery
The best way to begin your journey with Bhutan tour packages is probably by visiting the famous Taktsang Palphug Monastery, also known as Tiger's Nest. It is a sacred place of worship, nestled on a cliff of the beautiful Paro Valley. In 1962, Gyalse Tenzin Rabgye built this temple close to the cave where the divine sage Padmasambhava meditated and prayed. The sage worshipped in the cave during the 8th century for three years. What's more? It is this sage who bestowed Bhutan with Buddhism!
The Palace of Great Happiness - Punakha Dzong
Punakha Dzong is also known as Pungtang Dewa chhenbi Phodrang and is said to be a palace of great happiness or bliss. It is a must to be included in your itinerary while browsing Bhutan tour packages. Punakha Dzong is situated at the confluence of two rivers, namely, Mo Chhu and Pho Chhu and is the second oldest and largest in Bhutan. An old tale goes around in Bhutan that the sage Padmasambhava predicted that "a person named Namgyal will arrive at a hill that looks like an elephant." The prediction came true because, in 1636-37, Ngawang Namgyal built the Dzong on the peak of the hill, which looked like an elephant's trunk!
The Huge Buddha Statue in Buddha Dordenma
Buddha Dordenma is another reason to book a Bhutan tour package. The Great Buddha statue was constructed in Kuensel Phodrang, Thimphu, to celebrate the 60th birthday of the fourth king of Bhutan, Jigme Singye Wangchuck. The 51m sculpture houses a temple along with 1,25,000 miniatures sculpted the same as the giant structure. The structure is made out of bronze and took over nine years in total for completion. What's unique is the statue sitting on the hill as the protector of the entire Thimphu valley.
The Tranquil Gangtey Monastery
Gangtey Monastery is one of the major centres of the Nyingma school of Buddhism in Bhutan. Due to the village of Gangteng settled close to it, the Gangtey Monastery got its name. It serves as the main seat of the Pema Lingpa tradition. The complex includes monks' quarters, meditation centres, a central goemba, and a guest house. The vibe of the place is tranquil and soothing to someone looking for noise-detox. Tourists can meditate here and enjoy the beauty of the monastery and the serene view of the valley with some holiday packages.
Bhutan Tourism: Local Dishes to Try
Bhutan tour packages or rather any holiday tour packages are incomplete without tasting the local delicacies of the country. When in Bhutan, savour these dishes and you won’t regret it.
If there is one national dish that you need to sample when touring Bhutan, this is it! It is so scrumptious that if you haven't eaten ema datshi, your Bhutan trip isn't complete. The locals eat the stew cooked with green, yellow or red chillies, cheese prepared with cow’s or yak’s milk, onions and tomatoes, and it is served with red rice. The taste is spicy because Bhutan’s chillies are high up on the Scoville Heat Scale (a tool that measures the spiciness or pungency of hot peppers).
Jasha Maroo or Maru
Jasha Maroo is cooked with chillies, onions, tomatoes, garlic, coriander leaves, ginger and finely diced chicken. At some places, you might even find it made with beef. It is served with red rice and is packed with unique flavours.
Phaksha Paa
Phaksha Paa is prepared by slowly cooking boneless pork until it becomes tender. The classic Bhutanese stew has ingredients such as radish, ginger, bok choy, and chilli powder. When prepared, the stew is topped with dried pork and fresh green chilli strips and is served with a bed of rice.
Want to taste some of the finest brews in Bhutan? Visit the Namgay Artisanal Brewery in Paro Valley. Reputed for its rare Bhutanese ingredients, the beer has a distinctive taste. Don’t forget to try beers made with red rice, wheat, apple cider and more while enjoying Bhutan tour packages.
Things to Do on Your Bhutan Trip
Bhutan tour packages offer numerous activities that can provide an amazing experience of the country. Here are a few recommendations for your Bhutan tour packages.
Hot Spring Therapy
Hot springs are known as tshachus/menchus in Bhutan and are located in various parts of the country. The medicinal properties of these hot springs are believed to cure numerous ailments such as body aches, sinuses and even arthritis. Duenmang, Dhur Tshachu and Gelephu Tshachu are the most popular hot springs among the Bhutanese. You can ask your tour operator to add hot spring therapy to your Bhutan tour package to add a relaxing element to your holidays.
De-stress Meditation
You can easily find small retreat centres and hermitages located all over the country, next to monastic schools, temples and monasteries. These retreats and meditation centres provide rest from the stress of everyday life.
Adventure Sports
Adventure sports and tourism are relatively recent introductions in Bhutan, but there's no denying that these sports offer unforgettable experiences. Besides rafting and kayaking on the scenic rivers of Bhutan, you can also go for trekking expeditions to hidden valleys and catch alluring sunsets.
Shopping Binge
One of the most exciting things to do in Paro is attending the weekend market. Traders from almost all walks of life come here to sell home-grown vegetables, farm products like dried yak cheese, exotic ferns, betel nuts and juniper incense, and farming tools.
Souvenirs to Look Out For
When planning Bhutan tour packages, make sure you save a day for shopping to buy yourself a souvenir. Thimphu, Paro, and Jakar are major shopping centres of this Buddhist country. Upon your visit to a local market, indulge in traditional souvenirs such as textiles, bow and arrow, handicrafts, red rice, jewellery and weaving products.
Unspoiled by the modern influence, Bhutan should be your go-to place if you’re looking for a slow pace of life, no traffic jams and horns, soft-spoken people and captivating landscapes. The tranquillity here calms your mind and allows you to be a better version of yourself.
Whether you want to get away from your schedules, need a family vacation, or wish to unwind, choose Bhutan tour packages from India that offer an all-inclusive experience.
Feel free to tailor Bhutan tour packages as per your preference to have the best holiday experience ever!

Bhutan Frequently Asked Questions
We help you prepare for your trip and ensure an effortless and enjoyable travel experience.
How much does a trip to Bhutan cost?
Though Bhutan is touted to be a budget travel destination, the actual cost for a Bhutan trip depends on many factors, like for how many days you want to be there, the time of your visit, and what kind of stay you are looking for. Having said this, there are a lot of customisable Bhutan packages available online nowadays that you can choose from. The cost of a Bhutan trip varies from package to package, depending on the customisations from your end, if any. So again, the cost of your trip will depend on the kind of package you choose. A trip’s cost is never static; after all, different people have different choices. You can check out our Bhutan tour packages for their cost, itinerary, and other information.
Which is the best time to visit Bhutan?
Bhutan has a diversified climate and can be visited any time during the year. If you are a summer person, you can book your Bhutan packages for the months of June – August. The Himalayas look beautiful during this time of the year with lush greens surrounding the landscape. Another reason why you can consider booking your Bhutan tour package from India during the summer is the Haa Festival that is celebrated in the country during this time. That being said, if you want to experience the beauty of Bhutan during the winters, you can check out Bhutan trip packages online that are customised for winter lovers.
Is passport required for travelling to Bhutan from India?
You do need a passport but not a visa if you are travelling from India to Bhutan for a tour. The passport must have a validity of minimum six months. Apart from the passport, you also need a valid Voter Identity Card that has been issued by the Election Commission of India. If you are travelling to Bhutan by road, you need to have an ‘Entry Permit’ based on the valid travel document from the Immigration Office of the Royal Government of Bhutan. The entry permit is limited only to Thimphu and Paro. If your Bhutan tour plan is to go beyond this region, you have to acquire a ‘Special Area Permit’ from the RGoB Immigration Office at Thimphu.
How can I go to Bhutan from India?
If you are planning a Bhutan trip from India, you can reach there by air, road, or rail.

If you are on a budget trip, you can take a train from Kolkata, Delhi, Ranchi, or Kanpur to Hasimara, which is the closest railway station to Jaigaon. Though the train takes a long time to reach, it is the best way to plan a cost-effective trip to Bhutan from India. You can also opt to travel to Bhutan by road, but make sure that you have all the required documents with you.
How many days do you need in Bhutan?
It depends on your budget and how many places you want to cover. However, a minimum of 7 days is recommended. Now, with online Bhutan tour packages at the best rates by Veena World, you don’t have to worry about anything. We offer special packages for honeymooning couples as well.

Explore the Hidden Kingdom of Bhutan
I took this tour in Bhutan and it was an absolutely fantastic experience. The guide was amazing in every way. Their communication was clear and they provided a detailed plan for each day of the tour, which helped us make the most of our time. They were also very flexible and accommodating to my interests, which made the tour feel very personalised. Additionally, the guide was extremely knowledgeable when it came to the history and culture of each location we visited. They provided a lot of insight and context that helped me understand and appreciate the sights we were seeing. The hotels were also of high quality, and provided a comfortable and enjoyable stay. The driver was also excellent and made sure that we arrived safely at each destination. The meals during the tour were well-timed and delicious. We even had the opportunity to try some home-cooked meal experiences, which were awesome. Overall, I would highly recommend this tour to anyone interested in visiting Bhutan. It was an unforgettable experience, and I'm so grateful to have had the opportunity to explore this beautiful country.

Bhutan Discovered
I had a really fabulous time with a great group of like minded travellers. The itinerary was packed and it would have been nice if the tour could have been a few days longer and not quite so intensive.

Spirit of Bhutan - 8 Days
The Spirit of Bhutan tour exceeded our expectations and the itinerary we did was better than what had been outlined on TourRadar. There were some fantastic walks, and we took the option to go rafting which was a great experience (at additional cost). Our driver Namgay was extremely humble, and was in touch with the local traditions and culture. His smile made every activity a pleasure. The company can tailor make your holiday to suit your interests. We found it delightful that the owner of the company sat down for coffee and wanted to see how we felt about the tour.
Best of Bhutan Tour- 7 Days Majestic Bhutan Tour
Coming to Bhutan was a long time goal. I’m glad I did. I thought I was joining a small group but it turns out it was just me with Pemba as guide and Bhaia as driver. Both men very welcoming and friendly. Pemba especially went above and beyond to make it interesting and a learning experience. As a seasoned traveler I truly understand and appreciate an engaged guide. Nature is breathtaking and the monuments quite unique. Food in general is not a reason to come, it was repetitive and lacked imagination. I believe the location of the last hotel in Paro should have been closer to town, but staff in every place I stayed could not have been nicer. The travel agency was responsive and straightforward in our communications. I truly enjoyed the trip. Thanks to Pemba especially, who was with me all along.
Glimpse of Bhutan 5 nights 6 days
We did the Glimpse of Bhutan 5 night 6 days trip in Bhutan. Our guide and driver were amazing! They were professional, entertaining and knowledgeable too. We had a short on time for trip therefore we chose to do the 5 night 6 days tour to Bhutan. This trip covered all the main sightseeing place such as Tashichho Dzong, Tiger's Nest Monastry, Dochu-La pass, Punaha Dzong, the palace of Great Happiness and lots of beautiful scenery, which is what drew us to Bhutan initially. The hotels and food on this tour were wonderful too, definitely exceeded my expectations. Our Guide coordinated perfectly and never had one fault due to miscommunication. Thanks Adventure Himalayan Travels and Treks for providing us with good guide and driver. Highly recommended, we'll be back for our next trip with Adventure Himalayan Travels and Treks

Excellent tour leader in a wonderful country, overall outstanding
Druk Path - (PRIVATE TRIP)
I've been on 3 OneSeed expeditions and I have loved every one of them. Each trip was well organized and a breeze to plan for (packing lists are provided). They also take into account the trekker's dietary needs ( I had vegetarian food on all 3 trips-- all delicious meals). The guides were amazing too, they were helpful and great company on long days. I would absolutely travel with them again. The trips I've done are: Epic Patagonia, Kilimanjaro Summit and Safari, and Drunk Path in Bhutan.

“ In Ladakh, find the perfect blend of culture, adventure, and serenity. December last year I decided that my next trip would be Ladakh but didn’t know how to go about it. I knew I wanted to travel in a group, as I had prior experiences of traveling in a group but wanted an organiser I could trust. Ladakh isn’t like other destinations wherein you need some instructions due to the high altitudes.

David Tolson & His Friend
Our Bhutan trip was one of the greatest and most unforgettable experiences of our lives! Go Bhutan Tours is very well organized with professional and friendly staff, communicates effectively, and takes our wishes into account. We experienced and truly felt the magic as well as spiritual vibes in monasteries. We learned about Buddhism and the royal family in Bhutan, and we immersed ourselves in Bhutanese culture through visits to villages, schools, and homestays. We had very interesting and honest discussions with our guide and driver. We thoroughly enjoyed discovering the authenticity of central and eastern Bhutan.
Anna Family
We had planned to visit Bhutan, and we are glad we did. We spent 2 weeks in such a country with Go Bhutan Tours, and I wholeheartedly recommend it. We had a great time here, and we visited amazing places. Bhutan is an incredible destination that combines awe-inspiring nature, stunning landscapes, rich history, friendly people, and delicious food. Sonam was great, always helpful during the trip, making it a wonderful experience.
Lynn did a fantastic job setting up my whole trip. Everything I experienced went very smooth.The itinerary she chose was outstanding. If we had an issue with anything while in Bhutan, she fixed it within 10 minutes. I was so greatly appreciated and impressed with this company and customer service. If I have any chance to visit Bhutan once again, I will definitely choose Go Bhutan Tours. Thank you so much for everything you did for me!
Alejandro R. & Isabella S.
Bhutan Tours promptly addressed our questions, setting them apart from all the other travel agents. The trip itself exceeded our expectations. Our guide was highly knowledgeable, and the driver's skills were simply astounding. During our journey, we were fortunate to meet the owner of Go Bhutan Tours, a truly wonderful person. We were treated to an array of breathtaking views, explored various sites, and had the pleasure of interacting with warm and welcoming local people. In a word, we were elated with the entire experience and wholeheartedly recommend this travel agency.
Andrea Group
When we first started planning our trip to Bhutan, we were a bit overwhelmed. There were so many tour companies and itineraries to choose from. However, when we discovered Go Bhutan Tours, we felt like we were on the right track. One of the tour operators guided us through our plans with phone calls before our Bhutan trip and provided us with a thorough and clear travel guide, itineraries, as well as easy-to-understand cost breakdowns and comparisons. Once we arrived, our guide took us out to dinner and checked in with us regularly. The driver couldn't have been kinder and more accommodating. We managed to cover everything on our agenda and even more. Thank you so much!

The Best of Bhutan Travel

If you're curious about Bhutan travel costs, we have you covered with affordable and all-inclusive options. Our meticulously crafted travel packages allow you to explore the enchanting landscapes, immerse yourself in Bhutanese culture, and witness the awe-inspiring beauty of this Himalayan kingdom.
From the iconic Tiger's Nest Monastery to the serene prayer halls of Gangte Goemba, our Bhutan travel packages provide an unparalleled opportunity to experience the hidden treasures of this isolated nation. Whether you're a nature enthusiast, a culture connoisseur, or an adventure seeker, Bhutan has something for everyone. "Go Bhutan Tours" ensures that your journey to Bhutan is not only memorable but also hassle-free. Explore our offerings, discover the diverse landscapes, and immerse yourself in the magic of Bhutan.
Transportation
Go Bhutan Tours uses local transportation alternatives and conventional modes of transportation whenever possible because they typically have less of an impact on the environment, help small local businesses, and are far more enjoyable. The type of excursion you choose while on a Bhutan tour package will determine how you get there. Minibus: Due to the weather, a lack of paved roads, and limited public transportation choices, traveling around Bhutan can be challenging. So plan on taking a minibus while you're not hiking.
Culture & Custom
Embark on a journey to explore the fascinating culture and customs of Bhutan with "Go Bhutan Tours." Beyond the awe-inspiring Himalayas lies a land where tradition and modernization harmoniously coexist. Bhutan's unique allure has enticed a growing number of travelers since it opened its doors in 1974, welcoming over 200,000 visitors.
The enchantment of Bhutan is evident in its alpine landscapes, mesmerizing Buddhist architecture, and its enigmatic ambiance. It's a place where Gross National Happiness (GNH) takes precedence over GDP, emphasizing the well-being of its people. Bhutan holds the distinction of being the only nation on Earth with a net negative carbon footprint, a testament to its commitment to preserving the environment, influenced by its Buddhist heritage, which makes up nearly 75% of the population.
In Bhutan, the term that resonates most profoundly is "rich." This nation is rich in history, heritage, and customs, offering a wealth of cultural experiences. As Bhutan continues to evolve, there is a delicate balance to be struck between tradition and the rapid advancement of technology, a transition that will be fascinating to witness. Join our Bhutan Tours to delve into the heart of this rich culture and tradition, and explore the customs that make Bhutan truly unique.
Eating & Drinking
The spicy food of Bhutan is renowned for knocking even the most traveler's socks off. If you prefer things spicy, you might just have reached heaven because most of it is garnished with chilies; but, for someone else, it will be pretty warm. Here are some dishes to watch out for a Bhutan vacation:
These cheese sauce-covered, extremely hot chillies are offered. It’s the traditional dish of Bhutan, where ema is the word for "chili" and datshi is the word for "cheese."
Phak sha pa
Red chile, onion, tomato, ginger, and radish slices are used to stew chopped pork.
The Bhutanese consume a lot of wheat, which is often reddish in hue. This is as a result of its cultivation in the rich Paro Valley soil. This one has a nutty taste and is frequently served with chili and mushrooms.
These Tibetan dumplings are typically served as a snack and are filled with meat, cheese, or veggies. Momos should never be refused.
Red Panda beer
The Bumthang Brewery, which is operated by a Swiss citizen who wed a Bhutanese, produces the famous Red Panda Weiss Beer of Bhutan. The sole export brewery in Bhutan is this one. There is a thin white foam on the beer, which has a murky yellow color. Residents and visitors alike adore this excellent beer.
Plan-based options
Vegetarians will have an easy time traveling to Bhutan because the country does not consume a meal of meat. Because cheese is frequently used in meals, vegans may find it more challenging. Make sure to specify that you want your meals cooked without dairy or margarine. Obviously, vacationing with a local makes everything much simpler. With Go Bhutan Tours, you'll get a local guide who can explain meals and suggest healthy plant-based options.
The most stunning moment to go on a Bhutan tour is the spring periods of mid-March to early May, when rhododendrons and other flowers are in blossom and the temperature has started to warm up, which are often cited as the ideal times to travel. Another great period is in the fall, from September through November, when the sky is predicted to be bright and the hills should be visible. It appears that March/April and September/October are the busiest carnival seasons.
A Bhutan trip will satisfy your desire for high caliber handicrafts and vibrant art. Despite Bhutan's lack of a reputation as a premier shopping location, there are many skilled artists producing high-quality goods here. To be assured that you can carry particular things back into your place of origin, it is a great idea to verify with your local customs officers. General terms, the laws governing customs are rigorous in the US and Canada.
Hand-Woven Fabric
In Bhutan, artisanal spinning is at its very best. Visit one of the numerous textile shopping options in the towns of Bhutan to select from a wide variety of vibrant rugs, clothes, shawls, and decorations.
Traditional Music
Consider purchasing a CD of singing monks from Bhutan to use as a musical stress relief when you get home and are back in office daily.
Spiritual Souvenirs
For parents and friends, colorful prayer banners, aromatic candles, and rosary beads make thoughtful presents.
Highlight Festivals & Events
Step into the vibrant tapestry of Bhutan's culture with "Go Bhutan Tours" and immerse yourself in the colorful world of Bhutanese festivals and events. Bhutan is not just about its breathtaking landscapes and ancient traditions; it's also a land of joyous celebrations and major events.
Throughout the year, Bhutan hosts a plethora of festivals that offer a glimpse into the heart and soul of this remarkable nation. From the lively Paro Tsechu to the mystical Punakha Drubchen, these festivals are a window into Bhutan's rich religious and cultural heritage. The Tshechus, or religious festivals, are among the major events in Bhutan, and they are celebrated with great fervor and enthusiasm.
Let "Go Bhutan Tours" be your gateway to the enchanting world of Bhutan's festivals and events, where the past and present come together in a joyous celebration of culture and heritage.
Health & Safety
Go Bhutan Tours makes each precaution to make sure the Bhutan vacations are safe, enjoyable, and fun for everyone. The company takes the health and safety of its visitors carefully.

23 essential things to know before visiting Bhutan
Feb 2, 2024 • 15 min read
You'll want to observe proper etiquette at Bhutan's Buddhist sites, such as Punakha Dzong © Kateryna Mashkevych / Shutterstock
Perched in the Himalayas between India and China, tiny Bhutan , with cliff-hanging monasteries, golden-roof temples and colorful prayer flags strung along trails and peaks, stands as the last Buddhist kingdom on earth.
Its careful tourism policy has allowed it to slowly open to the outside world without compromising its culture and traditions or degrading its pristine natural environment – two pillars of Gross National Happiness (GNH), a unique philosophy that guides the government of Bhutan.
Having traveled extensively in Bhutan on assignment, I’ve come to embrace its diverse seasons and activities, from horse trekking in Bumthang to rafting down the purple-jacaranda-lined Punakha River to learning how to make hoentey (a specialty buckwheat dumpling eaten during Lomba, the New Year) in the semi-remote Haa Valley.
This quick guide navigates Bhutan's cultural landscape, highlighting its local customs and quirks, as you plan your journey to the country known locally as Druk Yul, the Land of the Thunder Dragon.
1. Independent travel is finally possible, but a tour operator is still the way to go
Since reopening in 2022, Bhutan has scrapped its all-inclusive tour-package minimum, and initially raised the Sustainable Daily Fee (SDF) to US$200 before reducing it to US$100 , valid now through September 2027. There is a 50% discount for kids ages six to 11, with no SDF for those under six. A one-time US$40 visa-application fee also applies.
Fees are significantly lower for travelers from India, who can visit with a special permit. Indian travelers need to have a passport or voter ID card. Indian Aadhar cards are not accepted. Meanwhile, Bangladeshi and Maldivian nationals are eligible for visa upon arrival , but must pay the SDF.
The good news is that adventurous travelers planning a trip can now independently book accommodations, guides (mandatory for any journey beyond Thimphu and Paro) and transportation. You can also, for the first time ever, extend your visa while you’re there, and you can even drive your own car – for a fee.
However, for activities like trekking, attending festivals or engaging in more specialized interests, such as birding, horse trekking or cycling, using a tour operator will undoubtedly enhance your overall experience – and is generally required. Lists of certified tour operators, guides and accommodations, including hotels and homestays, can be found on the official Bhutan Travel website .
2. Book early for festivals and trekking in the high season
Since reopening, there are no longer incentives for offseason travel, except for occasional hotel deals. This means you may as well time your trip with autumn and spring, when the most famous tsechus (monastic festivals) take place and the leaves change or rhododendrons bloom, respectively. Book far ahead if you’re considering attending a celebration or going trekking.
That said, locals argue that anytime of year is wonderful to visit Bhutan – and that summer and winter are just as wonderful, with plenty of lesser-known festivals. But these seasons are not ideal if you’re planning a multiday trek, due to muddy trails and chilly camping.
Still, the winter holiday season is auspicious, offering crisp air, clear skies and perfect light for photography, with few travelers. Plus, if you go for the December 17 National Day celebrations at Changlimithang Stadium in Thimphu , you may even get the chance to meet the king!
3. Travel insurance is mandatory
Per Bhutan’s Tourism Rules and Regulations 2022 , you must have travel insurance that covers accidental death, permanent disability due to accidents, emergency medical evacuation and hospital charges in case of sickness. You’ll need your proof of insurance coverage – in English – in order to apply for your visa.
If you do find yourself feeling unwell during your trip, consider a visit to Thimphu’s National Institute of Traditional Medicine . A doctor will assess your pulse, temperature and ask about your bowels. In turn, you’ll receive a prescription for ayurvedic medicine crafted from local plants, all at no cost. (A small donation is appreciated.) Another moniker for Bhutan is “Menjong,” which aptly means “Land of Medicinal Herbs.”
Alternatively, head to the nearest hospital or health clinic for treatment geared towards Western medicine. The Jigme Dorji Wangchuck National Referral Hospital , also known as the National Referral Hospital, is the biggest in Bhutan and located in Thimphu.
4. Only two airlines fly to Bhutan
Bhutan is served by two national airlines: Drukair and Bhutan Airlines . Because of the challenging landing conditions at Paro International Airport, surrounded by peaks as high as 5500m (18,000ft), only a select few pilots are authorized to fly there.
Direct flights to and from Paro connect you to various destinations, including Bangladesh (Dhaka), India (Bagdogra, Guwahati, Kolkata and New Delhi), Nepal (Kathmandu), Singapore, Thailand (Bangkok) and, from March 2024, the UAE (Sharjah). While Bangkok and Delhi are common entry points, Kathmandu promises the most epic route, with glimpses of Mt Everest on clear days. Request a window seat on the left-hand side when flying to Bhutan.
Note that it’s not possible to check your luggage through to your final destination, so you’ll have to claim it before boarding your Bhutan connection.
You can also reach Bhutan overland via India. (Bhutan has border disputes with China. Transit is not possible.)
5. Bhutan is the world’s first carbon-negative country
Bhutan gained global attention for being the world's first carbon-negative country. Aside from its relatively underpopulated and underdeveloped status (being roughly the same size as Switzerland with only 10% of its population), a key factor in sustaining this achievement is a landmark constitutional mandate requiring the country to maintain a minimum of 60% forest coverage at all times. This is further supported by the environmental conservation pillar of GNH.
Plastic has also been banned since 1999, though it's not regularly enforced. Nevertheless, do your part to keep the environment clean. There’s plenty of signage to remind you along the way: “Clean & beautiful environment is a feast to the soul,” says one placard en route to the Tiger’s Nest Monastery .
6. Bhutan is exceptionally safe
Bhutan, a happy and devout Buddhist nation, maintains a low crime rate, with violent crime being scarce. One of the safest countries you’ll ever visit, it’s ranked the 25th-least-corrupt nation out of 180 countries by Transparency International.
As a single woman, I never felt unsafe on any of my trips to Bhutan. I was also never truly “alone” since I was always under the watchful eye of my guide or local friends. In recent years, the number of female guides has increased, which is more good news for solo women travelers .
7. Save the hike up to Tiger's Nest for the end
Acute Mountain Sickness (AMS) can occur when travelers are above 2500m (8202ft). Given that the most commonly visited cities Thimphu and Paro are just 200m to 300m below that threshold, and that several treks in the Bhutanese Himalayas traverse mountain passes reaching heights of 5000m, AMS is a risk in Bhutan.
Ascend slowly, take rest days when needed, and if you begin to feel ill, stop. If it's not managed carefully, AMS can develop into life-threatening forms of altitude sickness, so pay close attention to how you're feeling. If your symptoms don’t ease, descend right away. Helicopter rescue is always an option in case of emergency.
Note: Due to the altitude, acclimatization may be necessary. I recommend waiting a few days or until the end of your trip – saving the best for last! – before embarking on the iconic Tiger’s Nest Monastery trek , which ascends about 1000m (3000ft). Make sure to schedule a traditional hot-stone bath afterward as well.
8. Stay current on your vaccinations
No vaccines are required for entry into Bhutan. This includes the COVID-19 jab, although you may need proof of it if you’re traveling via India.
That said, you should stay up-to-date with your vaccines and consult a healthcare professional at least eight weeks before your departure in case you need any boosters. Standard recommendations include vaccinations for hepatitis A and B, diphtheria, tetanus, and typhoid, in addition to childhood vaccinations for measles-mumps-rubella and polio.
For longer trips, including travelers who are moving to Bhutan, you may wish to consider vaccinations for Japanese encephalitis and rabies. Rabies is particularly noteworthy since friendly animals, like monkeys and dogs, can all transmit the virus, and untreated infection is fatal. If you are bitten by an animal, such as a stray dog, immediately go to the nearest health clinic and get a postexposure prophylaxis shot (you’ll need a total of four).
9. Pack a few medical essentials
Be wary of mosquito-borne illnesses when visiting in the summer months and in the southern regions. Because of climate change, Bhutan had its first nation-wide dengue epidemic in 2019. Dengue is deadly, and there is no vaccine to protect against it. (Malaria, which can be prevented with drugs, is rare and – fingers crossed – anticipated to be eliminated by 2025 .)
You’ll need sunscreen too. Bhutan's average elevation is 3280m (10,760ft), making it one of the highest countries in the world. It also shares the same latitude as Texas, Egypt and the Bahamas, so the sun is strong. Protect your skin – and your eyes.
There are no tunnels in Bhutan, which means the mountain roads are windy. You may want to consider bringing Dramamine for car sickness and Diamox for altitude sickness – consult your healthcare provider before you travel to discuss whether they're right for you. Pack your own diapers and tampons, if you use them; you can, however, find menstrual pads in stores and at select hotels and restaurants. And don’t forget earplugs – at night, howling dogs can be disruptive to sleep, especially in downtown Thimphu.
10. Bhutanese food is surprisingly delicious – and spicy!
For decades, Bhutanese cuisine suffered in reputation because travelers were mostly exposed to mediocre buffets at their three-star hotels, featuring Indian, Chinese and continental dishes tailored precisely to their palates.
Thankfully, those buffets are slowly being phased out. The local cuisine, emphasizing fresh and seasonal ingredients, is on the up and up and proving to be extremely tasty, if you know where to go. Ask your tour operator or guide for recommendations.
And while Bhutanese cuisine is defined by hot chili peppers, such as with ema datse (chilies with cheese) and kewa datse (potatoes, chilies and cheese), dishes can be modified according to your taste if requested in advance. Still, you may need antacids.
11. Don’t drink the tap water
Tap water isn’t safe to drink in Bhutan unless it has been boiled or purified. Ask your hotel or guesthouse for boiled water, or purchase bottled water to have on your person.
Do, however, drink the local whiskey and lager (Bhutan has a flourishing craft-beer scene).
12. Learn local etiquette
“ Kuzu zangpo la ” means “hello” in Dzongkha, a Sino-Tibetan language and the national language of Bhutan, most commonly spoken in the western part of the country. Recite this while bowing (shaking hands is less common). The deeper the bow, the greater the respect.
Aside from Dzongkha (and the many other local languages and dialects), English is widely spoken because it is the language of instruction in schools. When Bhutanese converse in English, it is common to hear the word “la” at the end of a sentence or question as a sign of respect; for example, “Thank you, la.” Feel free to reciprocate.
If you find yourself invited into someone’s home and offered food, tradition dictates that you say the words “ meshu meshu” while covering your mouth with your hands. After two or three offers, it is customary to accept. Similarly, if you are the one making an offer, or even giving a gift or tip, expect similar resistance. (Do consider giving a small tip if someone has invited you into their home and served you food or arra, a local spirit distilled from rice.)
13. Tipping is appreciated (but not mandatory)
Even if you’ve paid in advance for your all-inclusive trip, show appreciation to your guide and driver by tipping them at the end. On a trek, extend this gesture to the crew – ie the cook, any helpers and the horsemen. While 10–15% is normal, the amount and currency are up to you.
Tipping is not necessary at restaurants and hotels. A 10% service charge is already added to your bill when you dine out.
14. Bhutan has nightlife
While most people are drawn to Bhutan for its serene landscapes, peaceful Buddhist monasteries and imposing fortresses ( dzongs ) such as Punakha Dzong , the country is hiding a buzzing nightlife and music scene that is equally worth exploring.
Thimphu's nightlife centers around Chang Lam near the stadium, featuring diverse options like the Zone (a popular bar hangout), Mojo Park (a fantastic music venue, where the band Misty Terrace got its start), the Grey Area (Bhutan’s first gastropub) and nightclubs Space 34 and Viva City, which are open to the wee hours.
Note: Bhutan has ended dry Tuesdays and bars ars are now open throughout the week.
15. It is finally legal to smoke in Bhutan, but be discreet
Bhutan was long known for its drastic yet visionary health law that forbade smoking and the trade of tobacco products. While the law was recently reversed, smoking must be done “out of sight,” ie behind buildings. The same goes for vaping.
Despite cannabis growing prolifically throughout the country, it remains illegal. Possession can land you in jail for up to one year. The only “drugs” produced in the country are traditional medicines.
Note: While vaping products are sold in a few places in Thimphu, they’re not widely available. It’s advisable to bring your own.
16. Keep an open mind
Whether it’s migoi (yeti) sightings in Bhutan’s wild east, the significance of phalluses as symbols of protection or the flying tiger bringing Guru Rinpoche to the cave where the gravity-defying Tiger’s Nest Monastery now stands, folktales, myths and legends are an integral part of Bhutan’s culture and national pride – and believed to be true.
Approach Bhutan with an open mind. Westerners may find it challenging to suspend logic and reason, but be kind when pushing back, and consider setting aside your own preconceptions. Do as the new tourism tagline says: Believe.
17. Pack layers
You’ll want layers for fluctuating temperatures and varying terrains, and modest clothing for entering temples and monasteries, including socks for cold temple floors. Aside from a good pair of hiking boots, bring a nicer shoe to wear with a gho or kira (Bhutanese national dress for men and women, respectively), should you decide to buy an outfit – highly recommended if you’re attending a festival or meeting with a dignitary. For inspiration, follow Bhutan Street Fashion on Instagram or Facebook.
18. Carry small change
Cash is necessary for buying souvenirs, leaving small donations at monasteries, nunneries and temples (particularly if you’d like a blessing from a monk), and giving tips to your guide, driver and trekking crew, as mentioned earlier.
If you’re an independent traveler, you’ll want to have small bills on hand to pay for entrance fees to sites and museums. Few – as in almost zero – businesses accept credit cards.
19. Stay connected
SIM cards used to be challenging to obtain, but now you can easily get them upon arrival at Paro International Airport. You can also rent a pocket Wi-Fi device there – useful if you’re planning to visit remote regions and need to be online.
20. Bring cash and download these apps
It’s easier to bring your own money (make sure the bills are crisp) rather than rely on and seek out ATM machines in the country. The official currency in Bhutan is the ngultrum, which is pegged 1:1 to the Indian rupee. Do exchange at a bank or hotel so that you can have some small ngultrum notes for butter-lamp offerings and such.
Most Bhutanese businesses accept cash or payments through either goBoB or the BNB MyPay app . Foreign visitors can activate the app by downloading it from Google Play or Apple's App Store, inserting a local SIM purchased at the airport and funding the digital wallet with their credit or debit card. While goBoB is more popular among locals, some tour operators argue MyPay is better for foreigners because it is linked to more international card networks and is powered by Stripe.
21. Spin prayer wheels clockwise, and other temple tips
When visiting Buddhist monasteries, nunneries and temples, observe proper etiquette: remove shoes and hats, wear clothing that covers your shoulders and knees, refrain from photography in altar rooms, avoid pointing, never lean against a stupa and consider leaving a small donation on the altar or with a monk. If seeking a blessing, it's customary to offer a small donation.
Be it in a car or on foot, circumambulation of a Buddhist temple or shrine, such as a stupa or chorten, must always be clockwise. To go counterclockwise, whether it’s out of ignorance or on purpose, is seen as offensive, culturally insensitive and unlucky. Similarly, prayer wheels, which help purify karma, should be spun in a clockwise direction.
22. Don’t bargain hard
Unlike some other places in Asia, like India or Vietnam, where you’re expected to haggle, Bhutan’s market scene is a lot more straightforward. You typically pay the price that’s listed – aggressive negotiating tactics are a foreign concept.
That said, be prepared to spend a pretty penny if you plan to shop. Your eyes will be undoubtedly drawn to abundantly colorful textiles crafted from natural fibers, like silk and cotton. These can take months to assemble, and the prices – which can top four figures – reflect the meticulous work and cultural richness woven into each piece, often done by women.
Note: Geometric yathras , textiles made of yak wool and commonly found in central Bhutan’s Bumthang region, are more budget-friendly.)
23. Consult the lunar calendar
The Bhutanese calendar is based on Tibet's, which follows the lunar calendar. Buddhist festivals, like tsechus, follow the lunar calendar, meaning the dates change from year to year. There are other cultural festivals, like Bhutan National Day and the Black Necked Crane Festival in Phobjikha Valley, that follow the Gregorian calendar and therefore stay the same.

Bhutan Tours & Holidays
Bhutan measures its success by Gross National Happiness and by the end of your Intrepid tour, you’ll have contributed more than your fair share of smiles to the cause.

This place absorbs more carbon than it creates and a Bhutan tour is perfect for trekkers, nature-lovers and Buddhist pilgrims. From the jaw-dropping Tiger’s Nest to the prayer halls of Gangte Goemba, you’ll experience moments – and people – that make happiness seem like the norm, not a pursuit.

Culture and customs.
If travellers can tear their eyes away from the backdrop of the mighty Himalaya, they’ll discover a rich, remarkable culture in Bhutan that is quickly modernising yet truly anchored in tradition.
Since opening up to travellers in 1974, Bhutan has seen visitor numbers rise from just a couple of hundred to upwards of 200,000. The appeal is obvious: pristine alpine landscapes, magnificent Buddhist architecture and an air of mystery that pulls travellers in, not to mention the much-discussed Gross National Happiness used to measure national wellbeing, which is prioritised over GDP.
Bhutan is the only country in the world to be carbon negative. Since 2007 the country has been run by a democratic government, with three separate parties having won the three national elections since. Approximately 75 per cent of the population are Buddhist and these religious values are used to guide government policy along with prioritising sustainability and cultural preservation.
In society, the Bhutanese follow ‘driglam namzha’, a traditional etiquette supporting the respect for authority, devotion to family and a dedication to civic duty. The flag, which was adopted in 1965, features the country’s emblem of the Thunder Dragon on a backdrop of golden yellow and orange. The yellow represents the king and his secular power, while the orange represents Buddhism. The dragon holds jewels in each of his claws, representing the wealth of the nation.
And it’s the word ‘wealth’ that perhaps describes Bhutan best. A wealth of tradition, of culture, of history. A wealth of beauty, of happiness, of prosperity. In the future, given the way the country has been progressing, there’ll no doubt be a large amount of wealth brought in by more and more tourists. What will be interesting is how Bhutan manages to balance its age-old traditions with its quickening march towards modernity.
History and government
Early history.
As one of the few countries in the world to have never been conquered or occupied by another, Bhutan has a long history of independent governance. Although its early history is shrouded in mystery, Bhutan is thought to have been inhabited from as early as 2000BC. Tibetan Buddhism was introduced into the region around the 9th century, when many Tibetans fled neighbouring Tibet to seek refuge in Bhutan.
The leadership and governance of Bhutan has always been linked to its religion, and this continues in today’s political, legal and religious leadership of the country. The 16th and 17th centuries saw some conflict with Tibet, although Bhutan was never officially taken over by its neighbour. External threats from the British presented themselves in the 18th and 19th centuries; however, once again Bhutan was never officially controlled or governed by an external power.
Recent history
In the last 40 years, Bhutan has had many ‘firsts’. Bhutan introduced a new monetary system and currency in 1974 and also opened up its borders to welcome foreign tourists in the same year. By 2000, Bhutan had its first television set and internet cafe, and by 2004 Bhutan became the first country in the world to ban the sale of tobacco products. Bhutan’s first constitution was drawn up in 2005, and its first democratic multi-party election was held in 2008, when the constitution was finally ratified. It has held two democratic elections since.
Today, Bhutan’s economy relies mainly on tourism, agriculture and forestry, although ‘Gross National Happiness’ continues to be valued more than economic abundance or growth in domestic product. Bhutan has been held up as an example of what a country can be when it puts culture, the environment and wellbeing ahead of economic development, but there are challenges too: after the new government took control in 2013, the prime minister admitted that the focus on the Gross National Happiness measure sometimes distracted from addressing Bhutan’s problems including unemployment, corruption and poverty.
Eating and drinking
Bhutan is famous for its spicy cuisine that’ll knock the socks off the most hardy traveller. Almost everything is served with chillies, so if you like things spicy, you may just have found heaven – for others it’ll be hotter than hell.
A few dishes to look out for
- Ema datshi These are very hot chillies served in a cheese sauce. This is Bhutan’s national dish, with ema translating as ‘chilli’ and ‘datshi’ as cheese.
- Phak sha pa Sliced pork stewed using red chilli, onion, tomato, ginger and sliced radish.
- Red rice The Bhutanese eat loads of rice and you’ll notice that the rice is usually a reddish colour. This is because it’s grown in the fertile Paro Valley soil. It has a nutty flavour and is typically paired with mushrooms and chilli.
- Momos These Tibetan dumplings are filled with meat, cheese or vegetables and are generally served up as a snack. Never say to no-no to a Momo.
- Red Panda beer The Red Panda Brewery, which is Bhutan’s first, was started by a man named Fritz Maurer who came to Bhutan from Switzerland after answering a newspaper ad for a qualified cheesemaker. Not only does he make Swiss cheese, he also produces this hefeweizen beer.
Plant-based options
Vegetarians will find travelling through Bhutan easy as meat does not play a huge part in the Bhutanese diet. Vegans may have a more difficult time as dishes will often come with cheese. Be sure to ask that your dish is prepared without butter or cheese.
Of course, this is all a lot easier when you’re travelling with a local. If you travel with Intrepid, you’ll have a local leader who can help you decipher menus and recommend good plant-based choices.
Geography and environment
This landlocked kingdom may occupy a small space on the world globe but there’s nothing small about the mountains that lie within. Sharing borders with China and India, Bhutan is known as 'The Switzerland of Asia' for its mountainous topography and similarity to Swiss landscapes.
Bhutan has largely resisted overdevelopment, which has left much of its natural environment intact. As a result of this, Bhutan is one of the most species-rich countries in the world – with hundreds of species of mammals, birds and plants calling the Bhutanese valleys, mountains and meadows home. Endangered red pandas and snow leopards can be found in Bhutan as well as a huge variety of wild flowers and birds.
The country can be divided into three areas. In the south, you’ll find the lowlands fronting the Indian border, which enjoy a subtropical climate. This region sees monsoonal rains from June to mid-October and mild winters through December, January and February.
Travel north and the climate becomes progressively colder as the Himalaya rise. The central belt of the country, in the lower foothills of the Himalaya, features cold, dry winters and warm summers with monsoonal rains on the southern sides, while the valleys experience less rainfall thanks to the mountains’ protection.
In the northern regions, as the Himalaya rise above 2500 metres (8202 feet), the winters are cold and while the summer can be warm, the valleys are generally protected against monsoonal rain. The temperatures turn freezing as you reach the China-Tibet border, with the mountains rising to a high point at Gangkhar Puensum (7570 m/24,480 ft) – the highest unclimbed mountain in the world.
If you’re after top quality handicrafts and colourful art, then Bhutan will delight. While Bhutan isn’t known as a top shopping destination, there are many talented artisans creating good quality souvenirs to buy here.
It's a good idea to check with your local customs officials to ensure that you are able to bring certain items back into your home country. Australia and New Zealand generally have strict quarantine laws.
- Hand-woven fabric Traditional weaving is at its very best in Bhutan. Choose from colourful rugs, clothing, blankets and accessories when visiting one of the many textile stores and boutiques in Bhutan’s cities.
- Traditional music Why not pick up a CD of Bhutanese harmonies, or chanting monks, as a melodic stress-buster for when you’re back at home and in work mode.
- Spiritual souvenirs Vibrant prayer flags, fragrant incense and prayer beads make meaningful gifts for friends and family back home.
Festival and events
Bhutan's festival calendar is packed with colourful occassions filled with celebrations and dancing.
Paro Spring Festival (Paro Tshechu)
The people of Paro welcome the start of spring with five days of cultural and spiritual celebration. Locals shake off the winter blues by indulging in sword dancing, drumming and feasting. Expect to see stirring rituals, colourful clothing and touching displays of faith if you’re lucky enough to travel during this time.
Thimphu Festival (Thimphu Tschechu)
This three-day festival is meant to be highly auspicious to all who attend. Bhutanese people travel from all over to attend this spiritual celebration that features prayers and rituals to invoke the gods as well as traditional dance, costume and theatre. This highly joyous time gives travellers an important insight into Bhutan’s culture and the chance to mingle with locals.

Bhutan travel FAQs
Do i need a covid-19 vaccine to join an intrepid trip.
Trips from 1 January 2023 onwards
From 1 January 2023, Intrepid will no longer require travellers to provide proof of vaccination against COVID-19 (excluding all Polar trips and select adventure cruises).
However, we continue to strongly recommend that all Intrepid travellers and leaders get vaccinated to protect themselves and others.
Specific proof of testing or vaccination may still be required by your destination or airline. Please ensure you check travel and entry requirements carefully.
When is the best time to visit Bhutan?
Bhutan experiences monsoonal weather between June and August and consequently is not a particularly pleasant time to visit the country.
The best times to visit are the shoulder seasons of March to May and September to November, with the later months being particularly pleasant as rainfall is lower and the views tend to be clearer.
December to February sees snowfall in many areas but it can be a beautiful time to visit thanks to the snow covering the mountainous landscape.
Is it safe to visit Bhutan?
Yes, it is safe to visit Bhutan. The crime rate in Bhutan is low although petty crime does happen. Travellers should be alert and keep an eye on their belongings, particularly in crowded or well-touristed areas.
If you are visiting high-altitude areas be sure to discuss altitude sickness with a doctor and plan accordingly. Flooding and landslides occur during the monsoon period (June–September) so follow local advice and check with your tour operator for disruptions.
Do I need a visa to travel to Bhutan?
All nationalities require a visa for Bhutan and, at this stage, travellers can only enter as part of a group visa on a tour. Independent visas are not issued and the cost of the visa is included in your tour. If you are travelling with Intrepid, please provide your booking agent with the following information for us to apply for your group visa:
- a scanned colour copy of the photo page of your passport (consisting of both the flip pages)
- full name as per passport
- date of birth
- nationality
- passport number & date of issue/expiry,
- email address you will access while travelling
- arrival and departure flight details
Due to the controlled nature of travel in Bhutan the group visa can only be submitted once we have the above details from ALL travellers in the group. Failure to advise any of the information as above can slow the visa issuing process and delay the visa for the whole group.
Visas are generally issued within 5 days of departure and as close as 48 hours prior to travel into the country. We will send your group visa to your travelling email address. Please print this visa and carry with you as you will need it at the time of boarding your Bhutan flight.
You must show the copy of your Bhutan group visa at the check-in for your flight to Bhutan and on arrival at immigration in Bhutan where you will have a Bhutan entry stamp placed into your passport.
Is tipping customary in Bhutan?
Tipping isn’t compulsory in Bhutan, but many people who work in tourism are accustomed to receiving tips so it's wise to set aside a small amount to show your appreciation for drivers, cooks and other service workers. Most hotels and restaurants will include a service fee in the final bill.
Your local leader may discuss the idea of running a group tipping kitty on the first day of your trip. In a group tipping kitty, everybody contributes an equal amount at the start of the tour that your leader uses to tip drivers, local guides and hotel staff on your behalf. The leader will keep a running record of all monies spent, which can be checked at any time. Any money remaining at the end of the tour is returned to group members.
This is often the easiest way to avoid the hassle of needing small change and knowing when and what is an appropriate amount to tip. Participation in this kitty is optional, and you are welcome to manage your own tipping separately if you prefer. Please note the tipping kitty excludes tips for your tour leader.
What is the internet access like in Bhutan?
Most tourist hotels will have free wifi, as will many restaurants or cafes in Bhutan’s larger cities. It’s possible to buy a local SIM though internet access will be limited in the remote and mountainous regions.
Can I use my mobile phone while in Bhutan?
If you plan on using your mobile phone in Bhutan be sure to activate global roaming and check charges with your provider before you leave home. If your phone is unlocked, you can purchase a local SIM on arrival. The best coverage is with B-Mobile, while Tashi Cell has similar costs but more limited coverage. Please note that coverage will be limited in more remote areas.
What are the toilets like in Bhutan?
You will have to adjust to different standards of hygiene and sanitation while in Bhutan. Squat toilets are the norm across the country, which may take some getting used to, though Western-style, flushable toilets can be found in large hotels and some tourist areas.
What will it cost for a...?
Because of Bhutan’s unique tourism regulations, all meals are included in tour group itineraries. Local currency will generally be used to purchase snacks, while US dollars are best for larger souvenirs. Bhutan’s unit of currency is the Bhutanese ngultrum (Nu.), though prices here are approximate and shown in US dollars for ease of comparison.
Prayer flags = USD 1 Hand made coin purse = USD 5-10 Gofur (wooden bowl) = USD 10-15 Ceremonial mask = USD 20-40
Can I drink the water in Bhutan?
Drinking tap water isn't recommended in Bhutan. For environmental reasons, try to avoid buying bottled water and fill a reusable water bottle or canteen with filtered water instead. Ask your leader where filtered water can be found. It's also advisable to avoid ice in drinks and peel fruit and vegetables before eating.
Are credit cards widely accepted in Bhutan?
Credit cards are accepted are large hotels and the bigger stores but a heavy surcharge often applies. Keep in mind that tours in Bhutan are fully prepaid and include all meals and transport, so your only spending money should be for souvenirs, snacks and drinks. It’s best to bring and use US dollars for large purchases.
What is ATM access like in Bhutan?
There are ATMs available in Bhutan’s larger cities though they won’t accept some foreign cards. If you are travelling outside of the main cities be sure to carry cash to cover small purchases.
What is the weather like in Bhutan?
Bhutan’s weather varies depending on your location and the time of year.
In the capital, Thimphu, the temperature averages from 5°C (41°F) in January to 20°C (68°F) in the summertime. This summer period, from June–August, also sees the monsoonal rains arrive. The nearby city of Paro experiences a similar climate.
The city of Punakha, which is located at 1300 metres (4250 feet), has a warmer climate than Thimphu. The average temperature ranges from 11°C (75°F) in winter to 24°C (75°F) in the summertime. Because of the mountainous terrain, the rains here generally affect the southern side while the valleys experience less intense rainfall.

Is Bhutan safe for LGBTQIA+ travellers?
Bhutan, like most Asian countries, is not particularly appreciative of public displays of affection regardless of sexual orientation.
Homosexuality has been illegal in Bhutan since 2004, but in 2019 a bill was passed to decriminalise what was known as ‘unnatural sex’.
LGBTQIA+ people are generally accepted in Bhutan but work still needs to be done to change social attitudes towards those that identify differently.
For more detailed and up-to-date advice, we recommend visiting Equaldex or ILGA before you travel.
If you are travelling solo on an Intrepid group tour, you will share accommodation with a passenger of the same gender as per your passport information. If you don’t identify with the gender assigned on your passport, please let us know at time of booking and we’ll arrange the rooming configuration accordingly. A single supplement is available on some tours for travellers who do not wish to share a room.
Is Bhutan accessible for travellers with disabilities?
Intrepid is committed to making travel widely accessible, regardless of ability or disability. That’s why we do our best to help as many people see the world as possible, regardless of any physical or mental limitations they might have. We’re always happy to talk to travellers with disabilities and see if we can help guide them towards the most suitable itinerary for their needs and, where possible, make reasonable adjustments to our itineraries.
Travelling through Bhutan is difficult for those with physical disabilities. There are only a few hotels that have accessible rooms and bathrooms, and it’s rare that buildings will have been adapted for accessibility issues. That said, all travel through Bhutan must be done through a tour group so if you’re interested in travelling there then Intrepid will do all it can to make that dream a reality
As a general rule, knowing some common words in the local language, carrying a written itinerary with you and taking to the streets in a group, rather than solo, can help make your travel experience the best it can be.
What to wear in Bhutan
During winter, if travelling to high altitude areas, you’ll need cold-weather gear, thermals, good waterproof boots and a warm/windproof jacket. If you’re not taking on an alpine trek, however, warm clothes are necessary for the evening but a fleece and windbreaker should suffice during the day.
In the summertime, lightweight clothing is best along with a raincoat, as well as a jumper for the evening. You may add warmer clothes if heading into the higher reaches of the Himalaya, including a beanie, gloves, scarf and down jacket.
For ideas on what to pack for your Bhutan tour, take a look at Intrepid’s ultimate packing list .
Do I need to purchase travel insurance before travelling?
Absolutely. All passengers travelling with Intrepid are required to purchase travel insurance before the start of their trip. Your travel insurance details will be recorded by your leader on the first day of the trip. Due to the varying nature, availability and cost of health care around the world, travel insurance is very much an essential and necessary part of every journey.
For more information on insurance, please go to: Travel Insurance
How do I stay safe and healthy while travelling?
Intrepid takes the health and safety of its travellers seriously and takes every measure to ensure that trips are safe, fun and enjoyable for everyone. We recommend that all travellers check with their government or national travel advisory organisation for the latest information before departure:
