Experience the best sights and attractions of Bangladesh as recommended by popular travel guides and beyond their capabilities. Focusing primarily on Bangladesh’s people and culture, this tour will take you to explore lesser-known, offbeat destinations that are unknown to regular tourists. You’ll visit every corner of Bangladesh along the tourist trail and see its highlights, including all three UNESCO World Heritage sites, and explore areas that are far away from the tourist route over a short period, which you cannot cover when traveling independently. If you’d like to discover the hidden gems of every corner of Bangladesh outside the reach of regular tourists in one tour, this is the perfect tour for you.
