An Ultimate Road Trip to Bhutan

Bhutan, the land of the Thunder Dragon, is for many people the “holy grail” of travel destinations. Getting to “The Land of the Thunder Dragon” is an adventure on its own.

A Buddhist kingdom on the Himalayas’ eastern edge, is known for its monasteries, fortresses (or dzongs) and dramatic landscapes that range from subtropical plains to steep mountains and valleys. In the High Himalayas, peaks such as 7,326m Jomolhari are popular trekking destinations. Paro Taktsang monastery (also known as Tiger’s Nest) clings to cliffs above the forested Paro Valley.

Bhutan was closed to foreign travellers until 1974. In the first year that Bhutan opened up to tourism, only 287 tourists visited the country. In 2015 the number had increased to 48,800 tourists visiting the country. More than 90% of these are Indian tourists. 

Druk Air, the national airlines and the privately owned Bhutan Airlines.
The country’s only international airport is located in Paro, and landing there is a thrilling experience. Both landing and takeoff must be completed manually, and only eight pilots in the world are certified to land and takeoff from Paro International Airport.

Tour Insight
Things To Keep In Mind Before Visiting Bhutan:

1. The people of Bhutan love and respect their king and queen above all. Each home, restaurant, shop will have a picture of the royal family. Never speak ill about the royal family to the Bhutanese.
2. You cannot smoke on the roads of Bhutan. The sale of tobacco and cigarettes is prohibited in the country. Smoking is considered extremely offensive in the country and you can only smoke in private places. Drinking is allowed.
3. You cannot smoke weed in the country and although it grows freely everywhere, you cannot smoke it. If you are caught smoking weed, you will be imprisoned for 5 years.
4. Most Dzongs (temples) will ask you to cover your arms and legs out of respect to their God.
5. You are not allowed to take pictures inside temples and they are very strict about this.
6. The Bhutanese are extremely friendly and simple people and will greet you even when they pass by you on the road. Always smile back and be polite.
7. Bargain at all the handicraft stores and you will almost always get a discount.
8. The Phallus is worshipped in Bhutan and while they understand that tourists may find this funny, they expect a certain degree of respect.
9. Lastly, the Bhutanese are extremely proud of the cleanliness and the law in their country – with good reason. Do not mock or ridicule them in their country.
10. You can hike but you cannot do mountaineering in Bhutan. Anything upto a 6,000m in considered hiking and above that, mountaineering – which is strictly forbidden and illegal.
