While you can plan your own trip to Bhutan, it can become a little complicated with the various procedures, regulations, and restrictions in place. 


Bhutan Jasmine Tours is a licensed Bhutanese tour operator with experience in planning end-to-end trips to Bhutan. We arrange visas, air tickets, itineraries, accommodations, guides, vehicles, and provide detailed knowledge of Bhutanese sights and experiences. 


In addition to the visa and logistics cost for accommodation, vehicle, guide, and meals, guests to Bhutan are levied a Sustainable Development Fee of $200 (or Rs. 1,200 for Indians) per night. 


This means that daily trips can range from approximately 380$ and above, per day per person. This rate is inclusive of a 3-star tourist accommodation, private SUV transportation, personal licensed guide, all meals, sightseeing and activities, and all taxes included.


The SDF funds go to the national exchequer and are allocated to various projects that enhance facilities, services and infrastructure for nationals and guests who visit Bhutan, as well as funding free healthcare and education.


Yes, all visitors will need a visa to visit Bhutan, except for visitors from India, who will require a permit.


Nationals of Bangladesh and the Maldives shall be eligible for a visa on arrival at the port of entry. 


Nationals of Switzerland and Thailand holding diplomatic and official passports shall be eligible for a visa on arrival at the port of entry.


Visitors from India will need a permit to visit Bhutan. This applies to anyone holding an Indian passport, or an Indian voter ID card. For Indian nationals aged under 18 years, a passport or a birth certificate will suffice, and they must be accompanied by legal guardians.


The Bhutan Jasmine Tour team will handle all your visa processing needs, from online application to follow up and finalization of documents.


  • A passport copy is required. The passport must be valid for six months from the intended date of departure from the Kingdom; 
  • Travel insurance valid for the duration of the trip; and
  • A recent passport size photograph.


 Bhutan is a year-round destination. 

  • Spring is a botanist’s delight with nature in full bloom and wild flowers covering the meadows like a carpet. It's a remarkable time of the year to explore nature. 
  • Summer is green, fresh and revitalising. The low hanging clouds draped over the head, hazy mist covering the green carpeted valleys, the place stems right out of the mystery. Most of the farming activities also take place in summer. 
  • Autumn is a merry season of feast and festivals. As farmers reap the fruits of their work, the streets are covered with healthy harvests of the year. 
  • Winter is crisp and clear. You can get the glimpse of the high snow glistening in the Himalayan mountains and view the highest unclimbed mountain in the world. 


  • Visitors can travel to Bhutan by taking flights from Bangladesh (Dhaka), India (Delhi, Kolkata, Guwahati, Bagdogra), Nepal (Kathmandu), Singapore (Changi) and Thailand (Bangkok). 
  • For now, there are two airlines that fly into Bhutan - namely, Drukair and Bhutan Airlines.
  • Private jets can fly into Bhutan after getting the relevant approvals from the competent authorities.
  • All visitors can also enter via land from Phuentsholing. Indian guests can enter Bhutan via other land entry points (Gelephu, Samdrup Jongkhar and Samtse).
