Can I use Indian Currency in Bhutan?

Indian Currency is widely accepted in Bhutan. However, some issues might arise at remote locations in Eastern Bhutan, where only a small fraction of the tourist visit. The new currency notes of INR 500 and INR 2000 are accepted as well but don't expect small vendors to provide a change in INR. The balance change given to you will be in Ngultrum.

How expensive is a visa for Bhutan usually?

Bhutan isn’t cheap, and at a minimum, you’re going to pay $200-250 per person per day (daily tariff/tourist tax) depending on the season. At present, citizens of India, Bangladesh or Maldives are exempted from this daily tariff.

Is Bhutan safe and friendly towards Solo Travelers?

Bhutan isn’t particularly solo traveler-friendly. You can find cheap lodges everywhere, but you will not meet other travelers to share taxi costs for local sightseeing, thus, making the trip very expensive . Buses and shared taxies are available for moving from town to town, but once you have arrived at your destination, you will have to hire a taxi for sightseeing. The cost for a hatchback car full day will set you back by INR 2500-3000. Not just that, it’s also difficult to get permits as a solo traveler wanting to explore Bhutan. The Government of Bhutan wants people to travel in groups.
