Budget & Tips

In Nepal. Taking a break in a café is a good way to connect to the Internet: most have free wifi access. Between 5pm and 8pm, happy hour is de rigueur in the big cities.

In Bhutan. Outside Thimphu and Paro, cafés are still rare in Bhutan.

Age restrictions

In both countries, alcohol consumption is only permitted from the age of 18.

What's very local

Nepal. More and more places offering Indian-style teas, pastries and snacks with samossas are springing up around the country.

Bhutan. Except in chic hotels, it's hard to find an espresso in Bhutan. Everywhere else, it's always instant that's served. On cold days, try a Tibetan butter tea: the Bhutanese love it!
