Bangladesh holiday package to experience the best places and attractions in Bangladesh recommended by popular travel guides like BRADT and Lonely Planet, and beyond their recommendations! Focusing primarily on the people and culture of Bangladesh, this tour takes you to explore more offbeat destinations outside the capabilities of the guidebooks. It ends with a couple of days of beach leisure before returning home. If you want to discover the hidden gems of Bangladesh beyond the reach of regular tourists, this is the perfect tour for you.

Starting with visiting Dhaka, you will experience life on the Ganges Delta in Barisal. From there, take a traditional Bangladeshi passenger ferry, and spend three days inside Sundarban Mangrove Forest, visiting the fantastic Mosque City of Bagerhat en route. Next few days, you’ll explore the rich archaeological sites in Rajshahi and Rangpur divisions – beautiful Hindu temples, Jaminder palaces, Buddhist monasteries from ancient times, and historic mosques from the medieval period, before returning to Dhaka.

After that, you’ll visit the tea region of Bangladesh – Sreemangal, and Sylhet to visit its numerous tea gardens, Lawachara National Park, and tribal villages, and enjoy a boat ride on beautiful rivers and canals. From there, you go to the Chittagong Hill-Tracts area, home to many tribal groups in Bangladesh.

Starting with visiting the Ship Breaking Yards of Chittagong, you’ll have a pleasant boat ride at beautiful Kaptai Lake and Sangu River, explore the beautiful hills of Bandarban, and experience the lifestyle of its many tribal groups. Later, relax for a few days on Cox’s Bazar’s beaches and discover some of its hidden gems before heading home.

This tour is available to book anytime outside our schedule, year-round. Private tours are available to book for a group of two people minimum. Solo travelers can join any of our scheduled tours. If available, you can share rooms with total same-sex strangers to save costs. Also can book a Single Supplement if you need private rooms.
