Hi team request if you can assist? 1) Are any cards accepted in Bhutan or do we need to carry everything in Cash for Bhutan trip? 2) Is public transport available for commutation between the 3 main cities? 3) Guide and travel insurance can be hired/purchased directly during immigration?

@rollingfeettales 5 месяцев назад

1) Cards aren't accepted at most of the places in Bhutan, so carry cash. Good thing is Indian Rupee works in Bhutan! So no need to exchange money! 2) Public buses are available but are limited & kind of infrequent. Best option would be to go for car hire for the day. 3) Yes, you can take both guide & insurance at Bhutan immigration! Hope this helps!
