TRANSPORTATION, Bhutan

Displayed:   times.

Mode of transportaion within Bhutan is by motor vehicles only. There are no domestic airlines or trains. However the main roads are well maintained. The main two lane highway runs from west to east connecting all the major towns and villages. The mountainous terrain and winding roads restrict the average speed of vehicles to less than 40 km.hr. During monsoon and winter months, weather can disrupt travel and unexpected changes might occur in itineraries. Every effort will be made to stay as close to original travel itinerary as possible. For visitors wishing to enter Bhutan by road, the only land entry point is though the southern boarder town of Phuentsholing, boardering West Bengal India. All visa and custom regulations apply.
