Chitkul is the last village of India, so there's nothing after that but Chitkul itself is really beautiful place to be. Just before that there is Sangla which you'll be crossing on your way to Chitkul. You'll be taking the turn for Chitkul near the Karcham and the another road from road will be going towards Powari where a road will be going to Reckong Peo and Kalpa. Do visit Kalpa and enjoy the apple trees. The apples are really different from what you'll get in any Urban area. There'll be red apple and green apple both.

I heard that Bhutan Tourism has changed its rules about allowing solo travellers into the country. Apparently, singles need to join groups of 2/4/more to travel in the country. Does anyone know about this new rule? I checked the Bhutan Tourism website but there was no such update.
I doubt this piece of information that solo travellers are not allowed. For foreigners, single traveller is fine as long as we pay for the USD40 surcharge per night on top of the minimum daily tariff. Pls check the below from Tourism Council of BHutan :

1. Take local taxi from Kasara station
2. By road, take local bus from igatpuri to Bari village
3. ST buses are available for Rs.40/- per person from igatpuri

Yes it's very hot in April... especially in Bangkok...hv been to Phuket & Bkk in April....we used to escape the heat by spending the first half of the day mainly 11am to 3pm in the Malls...Weather gets better in the evenings... So if u plan ur days well, a holiday in April is manageable... And living in India, we are used to the hot Summers neways ☺
You will clear immigration in Bangkok only, your flight Bangkok to Phuket will be a domestic sector so no immigration. 90min is very less I supposed. You better contact your airlines transfer facilities staff.. They will forward your applications for quick clearance but that should also be 1 hour atleast. Direct look for Group immigration visa, that queue will be manageable for your Airlines.. Individual visa line will be too long to jump out of turn. Happy holidays ☺️
1.5 hrs is enough buddy.There is no need to panic and it should be manageable.I can understand the anxiety if this is ur first international trip.You can always request the airlines/airport people to allow u to move forward in the queue if u feel u r going to miss the next flight.
