So, spring and autumn are the best seasons to visit Bhutan. Monsoons season is from June to September, and the stormy downpours cover the mountains. In case you're keen on seeing the rare dark necked cranes, we suggest going to the Phobjikha Valley between late October and mid-February. Spring is the favorite time to visit Bhutan. Nature lovers who are keen on local flora should consider visiting Bhutan end of April or in May. Flowers would be in full bloom then. The autumn season between September and November is also the best time to visit Bhutan, as many tourists arrive for the big festivals like Tour of the Dragon, Thimphu Drubchen and Wangdue Tshechu, and much more.
