Bhutan Honeymoon Tour

1. How to Get Bhutan Visa for a Honeymoon tour?

First, you need to book a Bhutan honeymoon tour with a registered travel agency in order to get your visa. Bhutan Visas are only available for tourists and honeymooners once the tour has already been booked, and it is not possible to make the application for the visa yourself. Once you have booked your honeymoon tour with us, we will make the application for the visa on your behalf, using scanned color copies of your passports.

The visa process normally takes only a few days, and once approved, we will forward the copy of the Visa Approval Letter to your email address. This is not the visa itself, but you will need the hard copy of this to book and board your flights to Bhutan with either Druk Air or Bhutan Airlines, the only two carriers allowed to land at the Paro International Airport. Upon your arrival, the Bhutan visa will be stamped into your passports at the immigration desk of Paro Airport.

2. When is the best time to enjoy a Honeymoon tour in Bhutan?

If you are looking for the best time to take a honeymoon in Bhutan, then spring and autumn are your best options. Spring, from March to May is one of the most pleasant times of year to visit this beautiful Himalayan kingdom, with clear skies and almost no rainfall at all. Temperatures may not be the highs that you would get in the tropics, and they can even drop down to almost freezing at night in the early part of the season. However, the bright sunshine does make it feel warm enough during the day, and the amazingly clear views of the mountains in the spring sunshine is a breathtaking sight that makes you wonder why you never came here before.

Autumn, from September to November, is another great time of year to visit. The stunning landscapes and beautiful scenery are augmented by the season, with the changing colors of the leaves enhancing the beauty of this awesome country. Falling leaves cover the ground with a multi-colored blanket, while the sun shines down bright across the country. Temperatures do start to drop somewhat through the end of October, but a warm sweater, or curling up together, soon wards off the chill.

If you are not overly bothered by a little cold weather, then winter is a possibility for a great honeymoon tour in Bhutan at a cheaper price. The temperatures are not too low and only get down to below freezing at night in the depths of winter. And in Punakha, it does not even get that low in the coldest month. The weather is pleasant and refreshing, with clear skies that make it great for sightseeing in popular destinations. And the lower cost of the tours and flights can make it a good budget option.

Summer in Bhutan is the monsoon season, and not really a good time for a honeymoon. Much of the country sees heavy rainfall, and while there are times when it rains less than others, trying to tour the best sights of the kingdom is not easy when it is raining.

3. How many days are needed to take Bhutan Honeymoon tour?

5 to 7 Days for a Classic Honeymoon Tour in West Bhutan
The most popular destinations in Bhutan for honeymoon couples are usually in the areas of the Thimphu, Paro, and Punakha Valleys, as well as the area around Gangtey and the Phobjikha Valley. All of these popular romantic destinations are located in western Bhutan, which makes traveling around them easier. It generally takes 5 to 7 days to enjoy a honeymoon tour in west Bhutan, covering the most popular attractions of Bhutan.

8 to 10 Days for an In-depth Tour for Your Honeymoon in Central Bhutan
For those that have a little more time to spare, it is possible to go a little further afield and explore the Central region of Bhutan, around the famous Bumthang Valley and Jakar. This area of Bhutan is well known for its trekking and outstanding mountain views, as well as being the spiritual heart of this devout Buddhist kingdom. A honeymoon tour out to Bumthang takes at least 8 to10 days to explore the area properly.

Over 14 Days for a Bhutan Honeymoon Tour from the West to the East
For those that want to delve deep into the culture of Bhutan, a trip to the farthest east is in order, which normally requires a tour of around 14 days and above. Getting to the eastern end of the kingdom requires long days of driving, and the area is well spread out, and much less densely populated than in the west. The remote eastern areas are home to many of the ethnic minority groups in Bhutan, some of which number less than 1,000 people.

4. How much does a Bhutan honeymoon tour cost?

The cost of a Bhutan honeymoon tour depends on the number of days you will travel and the season in which you will visit Bhutan.

Hotels on the tours are normally3-star, as standard. However, you do have the option of choosing a higher standard of hotel, which does increase the daily cost of the tours.

5. What are the top things to do For a Bhutan Honeymoon tour?

If you are looking for those romantic outings, then Bhutan has it all. And you can follow in the footsteps of Prince William and Kate Middleton by trekking up to the famous Tiger’s Nest Monastery, just outside Paro. The monastery is located on the site where it is said Guru Rinpoche first landed in Bhutan on the back of a flying tigress. Sitting perched on a narrow ledge more than 900 meters above the valley below, the 2-3 hour hike up to this beautiful spot is well worth it.

For a Bhutan honeymoon tour, you can also try and arrange your tour to include a visit to a traditional Bhutanese wedding. A stunning ceremony held in either a Bhutanese home or one of the many temples, the wedding rituals include the offering of butter lamps, purification rituals, and many other spiritual and ritual ceremonies. And you can even plan your own wedding ceremony in Bhutan if you want.

The stunning landscapes and beautiful monasteries and temples of Bhutan are the perfect locations for a honeymoon couple, with outstanding views of the spectacular countryside, high Himalayan Mountains, and the ancient architecture of the Land of the Thunder Dragon. Exploring the wilderness on a trek or traveling around the many Dzongs and Lhakhangs can make your honeymoon the most relaxing and spiritual experience of your life.
