    Asked on August 31st, 2024

    Would you be able to tell us how much these tours would cost? What are our options for getting into Bhutan from Bagdogra? Are we able to cross the Jaigaon border independently and then take a bus by ourselves to Paro to start our tour? Or do we need to have a guide meet us right at the border?

    Tour Details

    • Bhutan Best Inbound TourOperator•Written September 2024

      It is mandatory to have a guide if you are entering Bhutan through a land border, such as the Jaigaon-Phuntsholing border. A guide will meet you at the border and assist you throughout your journey in Bhutan. We will be sending the guide from Thimphu as we are based in Thimphu. There will also be a driver with a guide.

      Joseph

      Traveler•Written September 2024

      For a 4 nights/5 days tour, how much would that be and what the itinerary would look like?

    • Bhutan Best Inbound TourOperator•Written September 2024

      International travelers exiting through Phuntsholing need to have stamped Visa. The Indian E-Visa will work for flying out from Bhutan / entering Bhutan via road but it won't work for exiting Bhutan via land.

    • J

      Joseph

      Traveler•Written September 2024

      If I have an e-visa with multiple entries, I can't go back to India by land, correct?

    • J

      Joseph

      Traveler•Written September 2024

      Do you know where I can find information about the bus from Bagdogra to the border town Jaigaon. So I can get there and next day be ready to start the tour?

    • Bhutan Best Inbound TourOperator•Written September 2024

      We usually do the pick up using some taxi from Bagdogra and will cost us about USD 40 - USD 50. We do not have idea on the bus service. When you get out of the Airport there will be taxi in taxi stand, and you can take taxi but about the bus service we do not know if it is there also or not there. Most of the guests reaches Jaigaon in taxi.

    Asked on August 17th, 2024

    I hope this message finds you well. The only available flight options would have us arrive at 15:50 on Day 1 and leave at 08:05 on Day 4 — is this ok for this tour? We know we won't be able to see everything included on Day 1, but will we be able to see some things?

    Flights / Transfers
    Tour Details
    • Bhutan Best Inbound TourOperator•Written August 2024

      Yes, you understood correct that you may miss out on few activities on Day 1 but for other days the tour will be full. The tour will be conducted privately as it is very difficult to coordinate group tour due to the start time due to limited flight schedule, geographical location of the places etc.

      Traveler•Written August 2024

      When we're ready, would we need to contact you to secure the visa first or book the tour first?

    • Bhutan Best Inbound TourOperator•Written August 2024

      It's important to confirm the flight booking first, as there are only a limited number of flights operating in and out of Bhutan. Once you have secured your flights, you can then confirm the tour, and we will proceed with processing your visa using the details we have requested.

    • M

      Mary

      Traveler•Written September 2024

      I should mention that the new flight details are slightly different: we will arrive in Paro at 15:20 on December 26th and leave Paro at 09:40 on December 29th.

      Do you have an estimated timeframe for when we'll receive the e-visas?

      Your visa just got approved today. Kindly take a moment to go through it once just to see that we have got all the details correct.

      Mary

      Traveler•Written October 2024

      Two family members are considering joining -- if I made another booking for them for the same dates, would they be able to travel with us? They're Indian citizens so I imagine their visa process will be easier.

    • Bhutan Best Inbound TourOperator•Written October 2024

      The e permit process for Indian National is also same but for Indian National even valid voter card works and their SDF per night is low (It is INR 1200 per night, approx USD 14/night). So their tour cost per person for 3 nights will be reduced by USD 42. For other citizens for 3 nights it is USD 300.

    Visa
    • Bhutan Best Inbound TourOperator•Written July 2022

      Yes, we do take care of all the work related to obtaining Bhutan Visa. Currently- until Sep-23, 2022, Bhutan has a requirement for travelers to quarantine for 24 hours. And if tested positive the quarantine will be extended for another 5 days. That will not be the case after Sep-23, 2022.
