Best time to fly

The best time to visit Bhutan is during the spring (March to May) and autumn (September to November). The weather is pleasant, with clear skies perfect for trekking and sightseeing. The Paro Tshechu festival usually occurs in the spring.

Paro International Airport is Bhutan's only international airport. Taxis are readily available outside the airport, costing around 500-800 Ngultrums to reach Thimphu. Many hotels also offer airport transfers, so check with your accommodation in advance.

Things to do in Bhutan

Visit the iconic Tiger's Nest Monastery (Paro Taktsang), clinging to a cliffside. Explore Punakha Dzong, a stunning fortress at the junction of two rivers. Experience the capital city, Thimphu, and its weekend market. Hike to the Buddha Dordenma statue, offering panoramic views.

Food to try

Try Ema Datshi, Bhutan's national dish made with chilies and cheese. Sample Momos, traditional dumplings filled with meat or vegetables. Suja (butter tea) is a common beverage, though it may be an acquired taste for some.

Local tips

Bhutan uses the Ngultrum, which is pegged to the Indian Rupee. Indian Rupees are widely accepted, but higher denominations (500 and 2000) might not be. Dress respectfully when visiting monasteries, covering shoulders and legs.
