Essential Information
When is the best travel time for
Bhutan?
The best
time to visit Bhutan is from October to December as the air and sky are bright
and sunny. January and February are colder, but from then until April, the
local climate remains dry of high quality. In late spring, the beautiful
rhododendrons flower bloom spectacularly and flood the valleys with beautiful colours.
The heat and humidity intensify from May to September, and the monsoon rain
covers the mountains at this time. If you would like to see the unusual
black-necked cranes, we recommend travelling through the Phobjikha Valley
between late October and mid-February.
Bhutan is a mysterious kingdom with a pure natural environment and a well-preserved traditional culture that represents the precious treasures of Bhutan and makes it the last Shangri-La in the world. Since Bhutan is a traditional and environmentally friendly country, it is very important to protect the treasures from damage. Therefore, independence is not allowed in Bhutan, and the services of a licensed travel agency, including the local guide, a private car and service must be used.

One Of Best Trip : Bhutan Tour Review
We did an 8
night 9 day tour of Bhutan for 10 people, including Paro, Thimphu, Punakha,
Bumthang, and Gangtey. Kishor, the manager of Nepal Tour & Trekking Service
P. Ltd was excellent. Before the trip, he was always very attentive to all our
questions. All the preparations were perfect. During the trip, we had flight
problems related to the weather, and Kishor was very flexible in finding an
alternative solution for us. I travelled around the world a lot, but Kishor was
the best I knew. He also planned a separate trip to Tibet just for me, and it
went well. I would recommend using this agency for any trip you plan to make to
Nepal, Bhutan, or Tibet.
