BHUTAN

WHEN TO TRAVEL

Best Bet

Bhutan's peak season of October to November brings the best mountain vistas this time of year. Black neck cranes migrate from Tibet to Gangtey from November to February, coinciding with colorful festivities to celebrate the arrival of these sacred birds.

Things to consider and possibly avoid

• Rainy season in Bhutan falls within June, July, August, with low to no visibility of mountain vistas.
