Join our Bangladesh Photography Tour to capture the raw and unfiltered life of bustling backstreets, lively bazaars, gritty shipyards, busy river ports, serene fishing beaches, and hilly tribal villages—where real moments unfold naturally, not in staged scenes. Designed for both amateur and professional photographers, this small-group tour focuses on people, culture, and daily life. From rickshaw pullers to dockworkers and tea vendors, every scene is full of character. Led by a local photography-focused guide who knows where and when to be for the best light and action, it offers rare access to powerful, authentic stories that will leave everyone amazed by your stunning portfolio.
We offer several group tours throughout the year, which you can join to reduce your costs. Seats are limited to only 12—book in advance to secure your place. Book ahead to receive an early-bird discount and further reduce your costs. Solo travelers can share rooms with total strangers of the same sex to save costs. They can also book a Single Supplement if they need private rooms. If you have an early-morning flight, we’ll offer a discount on your accommodation for the last night. Private and group tours are also available for booking at any time outside of our scheduled tours. Contact us now for a detailed tour itinerary and secure your place!

FAQS on Our Bangladesh Holiday Packages
What is the best time to visit Bangladesh with a Nijhoom Holiday Package?
The best time to visit Bangladesh is during the dry season, which runs from October to March. During this time, the weather is pleasant, and you can enjoy outdoor activities and sightseeing without the inconvenience of heavy rainfall or extreme heat. However, Nijhoom offers tours year-round, so you can choose a package that suits your preferences and schedule.
What are the accommodation options for solo travelers?
Solo travelers can share rooms with a same-sex stranger to reduce cost or have private rooms by booking a Single Supplement.
What kind of meals are included in the Nijhoom Bangladesh Holiday Packages?
Nijhoom Bangladesh Holiday Packages generally include complimentary breakfast from the hotels. Lunch and dinner are not included. If a hotel does not provide complimentary breakfast, we'll take you to a local restaurant for breakfast, which is included in the tours. All meals, tea, coffee, and drinking water are included for the three days in the Sundarbans Mangrove Forest. Lunch with takeaway cooked local meal or locally purchased fruits is included on the boat in Barisal.
Are vegetarian and vegan meals available on Nijhoom Bangladesh Holiday Packages?
Vegetarian and vegan meals will be available in restaurants in Bangladesh. However, options will be limited for vegan meals. You'll find more options in Western restaurants for this kind of meal. Vegetarian and vegan meals will not be a problem on our boat in Sundarbans. Our cook will prepare some delicious dishes for you. If you are a vegan, it will be good to always carry some food with you.
Is alcohol available in Bangladesh?
