The best time to visit Paro is during the spring (March-May) and autumn (September-November) seasons. The weather is generally pleasant during these months, with clear skies and comfortable temperatures, ideal for hiking and exploring. The monsoon season (June-August) brings heavy rainfall, while winter (December-February) can be cold, with possible snowfall.

Paro International Airport is the only international airport in Bhutan. Direct flights are available from several cities in Asia. All visitors require a visa, which is usually arranged through a licensed Bhutanese tour operator.

Pack comfortable walking shoes, as you'll likely be doing a lot of walking and hiking. Bring layers of clothing, as the temperature can vary depending on the altitude and time of day. Pack warm clothing for the evenings, especially if you're visiting during the cooler months. Modest clothing is recommended when visiting religious sites; long sleeves and pants are advisable. Don't forget essentials like sunscreen, a hat, and insect repellent.
