Not worth it

There is not much to see at Bazar so spend there only 30 mins instead of 3 hours :( Also, the is no train crossing the bazar what’s shown on pictures. I was disappointed not to see this. You can find a better tour for this price

Operator response

Hello Daryna, We regret that you have not enjoyed the tour. Sadly the government got rid of the slums due to construction of the new metro system in Dhaka. There for the train crossing the bazar was not available.

Great to know that the tour manager speaks verry good Bengali ,English and Dutch

I did vist Bangladesh in March 2022 . When i arrived I could not inmagine that this country was so crowdy. The night I stayed at the hotel I started looking for a tour guide. Another guest at the hotel recommended me to contact this company. And I am glad I did . I had a great time in Dhaka. I think if I did this on my own then i didnt see so many places. Javed the tour guide took me to places where I think normally tourist will not come . Aspecially i loved the tour to Historical places ..Also it was great That Javed can speak Bengali, English and Dutch verry well. So it was verry easy to communicate. If i ever will go to Bangladesh again . I deffinitly will contact this company again.

Surpassed all expectations. What a memorable day!

I would have given it 6 stars if possible. Bappi was excellent, informative, flexible and brought me around to specific places I asked. He was a great judge of my adventurousness, looked out for my safety and basically did everything right. Would definitely recommend to everyone game for a real Dhaka experience. Javed the tour manager was also easy to communicate with! Hats off to the team.
