Summary
Bhutan Travel Guide: Days 8-11, Travelling Solo, Flight To Bangkok With The Royal Family, Costs & Final Thoughts In this penultimate episode of my Bhutan Series on Winging It, I wrap up my 11-day trip to Bhutan and share my final experiences exploring Thimphu and Paro , plus my biggest takeaways from travelling through one of the most fascinating countries in the world. After originally planning a trek in the Haa Valley , I changed my itinerary and spent my final days wandering Bhutan’s capital Thimphu , experiencing Bhutan’s National Day celebrations , visiting local cafés, exploring markets, and eventually heading to Paro for my final night before flying back to Bangkok . I also give an idea of what budget day-to-day life is like when travelling solo in Bhutan. Along the way I stayed in luxury glamping tents in hills of Paro , met incredible locals, and had an unexpected moment on my flight to Bangkok when I discovered the King and Queen of Bhutan were on the same plane . I managed to speak to one of their closest advisors during the flight, which was a very interesting chat indeed! To wrap up the series, I also share my favourite experiences in Bhutan , practical Bhutan travel tips , what it actually costs to visit Bhutan , and advice for anyone planning their own trip to the Kingdom of the Thunder Dragon. If you're wondering how to visit Bhutan, what an itinerary looks like, or whether Bhutan is worth visiting , this episode brings together everything I learned from my time there.
