Best Time for Tour in Bhutan

Bhutan presents different travel experience during different seasons so visitors can select the most suitable time to visit. Tourists choose Spring (March to May) as their preferred season for travel to Bhutan. 

The spring season provides a pleasant climate during which Bhutan’s natural environment produces an impressive display of rhododendrons and wildflowers. The Tiger’s Nest Monastery becomes the perfect sightseeing and hiking destination during this season due to the clear skies. 

Summer months from June through August deliver monsoon conditions to Bhutan through intense rainfall across the country. The greenery throughout the country creates difficult trail conditions because of mud and temporary travel setbacks.

The destination experiences diminished tourist crowds and less expensive travel costs during this season while the weather remains damp.

Autumn, from September to November, presents ideal conditions for visiting Bhutan. A clear sky and cool temperatures create beautiful views of the Himalayas. These cultural festivals including Thimphu Tshechu occur in this season so travelers can participate in Bhutan’s exciting traditions. 

Winter brings cold temperatures to Bhutan, but its elevated regions provide perfect conditions for photography since skies stay clear and people seek solitude. Beautiful snow peaks alongside fresh seasonal air create an enchanting appeal to the surrounding landscapes. 

The preferred travel times to Bhutan fall during spring and autumn because these months deliver ideal weather conditions and spectacular views.
