7 DAYS BHUTAN TOUR FROM NEPAL

Yes, all visitors must have a Bhutan visa, which must be organized by a licensed tour operator. The visa is approved before arrival and stamped upon arrival at Paro International Airport. Your guide will organize this on your behalf using your passport information and dates of travel. This will ensure a smooth entry process without any delays. It is recommended that visitors apply at least 2-3 weeks prior to arrival, especially during peak periods, as this may take longer to process and is required for airport immigration purposes.
 

The Ngultrum (BTN) is the official currency and is fixed at parity with the Indian Rupee (INR). Indian Rupees are widely accepted, but other foreign currencies are not. Credit cards are accepted at most hotels, major restaurants, and tourist facilities, but it is recommended that cash be used at local markets, small shops, and in rural areas. There are ATMs available in Paro and Thimphu, but these may not always accept foreign cards.
 

Paro Valley and Thimphu are at 2,200-2,600 meters, Punakha is at an altitude of 1300m, Chele La Pass is at an altitude of 3,988 meters, and Tiger’s Nest Monastery is at 3,120 meters. Most tourists have no problem, but a few may experience some altitude sickness, such as difficulty breathing, tiredness, or headaches. To avoid these, drink plenty of water, rest, eat light meals, and avoid heavy exercise on your first day. People with heart or lung problems should consult their doctor before traveling. In general, the moderate altitude is not a problem for healthy tourists.
 

Bhutanese culture is known for its modesty and reverence, particularly in religious and cultural sites. When visiting dzongs, monasteries, and temples, it is necessary to keep your shoulders and knees covered. Remove your shoes when entering temples, and refrain from making too much noise. By following local traditions, such as walking around stupas or prayer wheels in a clockwise direction, you show respect. For general sightseeing not involving temples, you can wear casual clothes.
 

When hiking to Tiger’s Nest, it is essential to bring comfortable hiking shoes, clothing that can be layered, a light jacket, and a water bottle. Hiking poles can be brought along for added support while hiking uphill. A hat, sunscreen, and sunglasses are also important, as the sun may be strong in certain areas of the hike. A small backpack is also useful for carrying snacks, a camera, and other personal items. Weather conditions in the mountains can change suddenly, so it is important to dress in layers.
 

Bhutanese culture emphasizes being polite and spiritual. When visiting religious sites, it is important to avoid pointing your feet at religious artifacts, to bow slightly if necessary, and to ask before taking photographs of people. When walking around stupas and prayer wheels, it is important to walk clockwise, as this is how the locals do it. By paying attention to what your guide tells you, you can ensure that you do not unintentionally offend anyone.
 

The internet is accessible in most hotels, but mobile connectivity may be restricted in rural areas or on mountain trails like Tiger’s Nest. However, this is a great time to appreciate nature, meditate, or take pictures offline. It is always a good idea to carry a portable power bank for cameras and mobile phones, and download maps or travel guides before departing from cities to ensure that you stay connected when you need to.
 

The tour package includes breakfast at your hotel every day. Lunch and dinner are not included to give you the flexibility to discover local cuisine at local restaurants or cafes. Ema Datshi (chili cheese), red rice, and momos are some of the Bhutanese dishes that you must try. Your guide will be able to recommend safe and authentic eateries. Special dietary requirements like vegetarian or gluten-free meals must be informed prior to the tour to make necessary arrangements.
 

A private car with a licensed driver is available throughout the trip. The roads from Paro to Thimphu are good but winding, with beautiful views of the rivers and mountains. The car is comfortable and suitable for the Himalayan roads, ensuring safety and convenience. Transportation from and to Paro International Airport, as well as excursions to Thimphu and Paro, are all arranged. Your guide will be with you to give you cultural orientation and direction.
 

Taking pictures is allowed in most tourist spots, but there are restrictions in religious or sacred areas. It is important to ask for permission before taking pictures of the locals, and it is not advisable to take pictures inside temples, dzongs, or during religious rituals without proper guidance. Early morning and late afternoon treks, especially to Tiger’s Nest, are ideal for taking landscape and cultural pictures.
