When to visit Bhutan
The best time to visit Bhutan is March to May, September to November. December to February (cold, clear skies) are also good. Try to avoid June to August (monsoon). Indian citizens do not need a visa but need an entry permit and pay a daily Sustainable Development Fee, which is lower for Indian visitors. Check the current rate before booking.
