How to Book a Tour to Bhutan

Planning a trip to Bhutan is a little different from booking travel to most countries. Bhutan follows a unique “High Value, Low Impact Tourism” policy, which means most international visitors (except those from India, Bangladesh, and the Maldives) must arrange their trip through a licensed Bhutanese tour operator.

Start by selecting a trusted Bhutanese travel company like Dhungkar Tour. They will handle everything—from planning your itinerary to processing your visa—making your trip simple and stress-free.
Your trip can be tailored to your interests, whether it’s cultural sightseeing in Paro, Thimphu, and Punakha, trekking adventures, festival experiences, or a luxury private journey.
Once your itinerary is finalized, you’ll receive a quotation. Confirm your booking by making a secure payment through bank transfer or online payment.
Your tour operator will apply for your Bhutan visa. After approval, you’ll receive a visa clearance letter required for entry.
Once your visa is approved, you can book your flights or plan your land entry and get ready for your Bhutan journey.

Flying into Paro is one of the most scenic flights in the world, offering breathtaking views of the Himalayas.

Flights to Bhutan are operated by Drukair and Bhutan Airlines. These airlines connect Bhutan to several major cities, including Bangkok, Delhi, Kathmandu, and Singapore, making it relatively accessible from key international hubs.

Depending on your location, you may need to take a connecting flight to one of these cities before continuing to Bhutan. Your tour operator can assist you in booking flights, finding the best routes, and ensuring your travel dates align smoothly with your confirmed itinerary.
