Best Season for Bhutan Luxury Tour
Timing is very important if you have decided to visit Bhutan. Each seasons have distinct characteristics and you must take note of that.
Earrach (Màrt gu Cèitean)
The spring season is the most beautiful time because it is filled with rhododendron flowers, and the weather is always pleasant. Visibility is also excellent during this season, but the crowds of tourists are huge so you must plan the tour package for Bhutan ahead of time.
Foghar (Sultain gu Samhain)
Visibility is excellent during autumn, and the weather is the best of all seasons as the monsoon clouds are gone. It’s cool during the day but minimum cold during the night. There will be no problems with wet trails as there is dry weather after monsoons.
Monsoon (Ògmhios gu Lùnastal)
Summer is the time where the country receives lots of rain, which will make the weather very humid and cloudy. Mountain sights will not be easily visible since visibility is bad at the time, but the scenery is beautiful as there are plenty of trees and fewer tourists.
Geamhradh (Dùbhlachd gu Gearran)
It is the cold season where the temperatures are cold especially in the morning and in the evenings. Visibility is great during this period as the sky is clear, which makes it an ideal time for tourists as there are not many people around.
Due to the short and luxury tour in Bhuta, earraich agus foghar become the best times to visit Bhutan because the weather is stable, and the visibility is great.
