We always recommend checking with the individual airline you are booking with to travel to Paro Airport.

Question 8

The travel and health documents required for your trip to Paro Airport can vary based on your itinerary and personal situation.

We always recommend checking with your airline or a trusted third party such as IATA to get advice.

Question 9

What can you see and do in Paro?

Accepted Answer

Paro is in the mythical Himalayan region, with Bhutan being right next to Nepal, so the traditional tourist attractions in this region are still as evergreen as always. You can visit any number of Buddhist temples, the most prominent of these being Jangsta Dumtseg Lhakhang Temple, Druk Choeding Temple, and the quiet and ancient Kyichu Lakhang Temple. You can explore the myths of legends of this mysterious region at Paro Taktsang (Tiger’s Nest). It’s a monastery that you can hike to in about 20min, totally worth it for the famous mountain views. To immerse yourself in the local culture, visit the Paro Weekend Market, where you’ll find everything from souvenirs and keepsakes to traditional delicacies like chugo (dried yak cheese) and Tsirang honey.

Question 10

What passport or visa requirements are there when visiting Paro?

Accepted Answer

You’ll need both your British passport and a visa to visit Paro. You don’t have to have your visa physically issued before you leave, but you must have obtained approval for it, as you’ll receive it when you arrive at Paro Airport. You can only get visa clearance through Thimpu, Bhutan’s capital, via a registered tour operator. Your passport must be valid for at least six months from the day you intend to leave Bhutan, not enter it, so make a note of that. It also needs to have two blank pages for the necessary stamps.

Question 11

How do you get to the city centre from Paro Airport?

Accepted Answer

There’s only one way to get from Paro Airport to the city centre and that’s to drive, as you won’t be able to get any public transport. It’s a very short taxi trip, though, taking less than 5min. You can also organise a car hire in advance and drive yourself downtown. If you’re backpacking or you’ve come to Bhutan for the spiritual experience and are travelling as light as possible, you can even walk into town if you like – it will take just over 45min.

Question 12

How long does it take to fly to Paro?

Accepted Answer

A large number of the flights to Paro, Bhutan, from the UK depart from London, Birmingham and Glasgow, each having around 20 routes to choose from. If you’re in Scotland, you can fly from Glasgow in an average of about 12-13h on a variety of airlines. Similarly, you can leave from London and also arrive in Paro in an average of about 11–12h. If you’re leaving from the Midlands, you can fly from Birmingham to Paro, and your average travel time will be around 13h. So you can choose any of these cities and reach Bhutan in roughly the same amount of time. Given this variety, it’s always a good idea to keep a look-out for good Paro flight deals that you can book through momondo.

Question 13

Where can you fly directly to Paro from?

Accepted Answer

Unfortunately, you can’t fly directly to Paro from UK cities at present, so scan timetables for the quickest one- or two-stop flights. Those from Birmingham are usually the fastest, taking around 10h 15min on Air India. You’ll depart from Birmingham Airport (BHX) and stopover first at Sri Guru Ram Dass Jee International Airport (ATQ) in Amritsar, where you can either continue with the airline, or change to Go Air, Spicejet, Vistara or IndiGo Airlines. These all fly on to New Delhi Airport, for a final change to Druk Air to land at Paro International Airport, Paro (PBH). The shortest flight from London Stansted Airport (STN) will take about 11h, departing on Ryanair for Frankfurt am Main Airport (FRA) to change to Lufthansa or Air India and fly to New Delhi. Here you’ll again transfer to Druk Air for the last leg. If you’re flying from Glasgow Airport, you can get to Paro in about 11h 15min, boarding Lufthansa to Frankfurt, and stopping over in New Delhi for the handover to Druk Air.
