Your journey to Bhutan is part of the experience.
Bhutan is accessible by air through Paro International Airport, one of the world’s most unique and scenic airports, set amidst the Himalayan mountains. Flights are operated by Bhutan’s national carriers, with connections from cities such as Bangkok, Delhi, Kathmandu, and Singapore. On a clear day, the flight offers breathtaking views of some of the highest peaks in the world—making your arrival truly unforgettable.
For those traveling by land, Bhutan can also be entered through border towns such as Phuentsholing (via India), offering a slower and equally enriching way to arrive.
