As you plan your trip to Bhutan, you need to know these important points:  

·         Carry your Passport with you which should be valid for at least 6 months from your exit date from Bhutan.

·          Ensure that you have a photocopy of the picture page of the passport showing all the details on it like your passport number and other important details. Keep this safely in your bag as it will fasten the process of applying for a new passport in case you lose the original one.

·         Carry the printout copy of the visa and the International air tickets with you.

·         Be prepared with layered clothing as temperature varies to a large extent in Bhutan. You can experience minimum 04 degrees to maximum 35 degrees of temperature. Temperatures vary depending on the altitude and time of the day. Always carry a couple of warm clothes in your travelling bag when you visit the country regardless of the season. 

·         It is advisable that you consume only bottled water, sodas and beer while on the trip.Tap water is  not very  safe and hygienic to drink in Bhutan.

·         Avoid eating uncooked foods like cold salad while on your tour as these are washed in normal tap water and can cause gastro-intestinal discomfort.

·         Tipping is not mandatory, but if you are satisfied to a large extent with the staff then you can appreciate them in this way.

 Few points to note

·         While in Bhutan, accept or offer articles with your right hand or with both the hands as it denotes that you honor the offering and the giver or the recipient.

·         Always walk in a clockwise direction around the Buddhist shrines and temples as it is a symbol of respect and regard. This also holds true for mani walls (stone walls with Buddhist mantras on them) and chortens.

·         Whenever in doubt, check with your guide as he will give you additional tips. You will be travelling to areas with very less foreign visitors and your warm attitude and interaction will fill adventure to the trip.
