This tour offers a rare opportunity to experience everyday life in a country largely unspoiled by tourism while discovering its most remarkable cultural heritage, natural beauty, and living traditions.

Tour Highlights
- Visit all three UNESCO World Heritage Sites in Bangladesh.
- Spend two nights on a small but comfortable houseboat, anchoring in remote corners of the Sundarbans, the world’s largest mangrove forest and a UNESCO World Heritage Site, in a magical environment.
- Explore the historical mosques of the Bagerhat UNESCO World Heritage Site, featuring the iconic 15th-century Sixty Dome Mosque and other notable Islamic monuments.
- Visit Sompur Mahabihar, an 8th-century Buddhist monastery and UNESCO World Heritage Site—one of the most important archaeological sites in South Asia.
- Glide through the peaceful, small creeks and channels in a silent rowing boat and trek deep into the Sundarban to observe birds and wildlife up close in their natural habitat.
- Watch the endangered Irrawaddy and Ganges River Dolphins jumping around while enjoying some delicious Bangladeshi dishes prepared by our chef, which you won’t find at hotels in Bangladesh.
- Experience life in Barisal, a scenic region of southern Bangladesh located in the heart of the Ganges Delta—far off the typical tourist trail —by visiting its villages, bustling bazaars, and brick kilns.
- Enjoy tranquil boat rides through narrow canals and visit early morning floating markets where local farmers trade fresh produce directly from their boats—a unique tradition of the delta region.
- Explore the stunning temples, palaces, and mosques of Rajshahi, which showcase a rich architectural heritage spanning from the medieval era to the British colonial period.
- Experience the everyday life of a tribe in Rajshahi, with its own rich culture, traditions, and stories, which are distinct from those of the mainstream Bengali people elsewhere in the country.
- Experience life in the Bangladeshi capital, Dhaka, a living hell on earth, and appreciate the place you live in for the rest of your life.
- Explore the haunting street of Panam Nagar, an early 19th-century Hindu cotton merchant town that is now completely abandoned.
- Visit a fishing village by the Sundarbans and a rural island on the Meghna River, and learn how local communities adapt to natural disasters, river erosion, and climate change.
