Important Notes

  • Old Dhaka Tour is available to book year-round, except for Fridays and Tuesdays.
  • Be prepared to walk a lot on this tour, and wear shoes accordingly.
  • Dhaka was officially ranked as the second least livable city in the world. There could be incredible traffic in Dhaka sometimes when everything stops at every intersection. You could be stopped in the same place for a long time without even moving during the Rickshaw ride.
