How much does it cost to travel to Bhutan ?

The Bhutan travel/tour cost depends on the duration and category of hotels you choose during your stay in Bhutan.  All international visitors to Bhutan (Except Indian nationals) have to pay US $ 100 per person per night stay in Bhutan as a sustainable development fee (SDF).  The non-resident Indians (NRIs) and over-seas citizens of India (OCI card holders) wishing to visit Bhutan are treated as any other international travelers. Hence they have to pay US $ 100 per night stay in Bhutan. The Bhutanese tour operators and international travel agents charge for the package tour above the SDF amount. Besides the sustainable development fee (SDF), the tourists have to pay entry fees to visit museums/monuments and festivals.
