Tour Highlights

  • Experience the massive fishing industry of Chittagong and Cox's Bazar by visiting its bustling fishing ports, fish markets, fishing villages, and dry fishing yards.
  • Watch the intense stone collection activities along the riverbanks of Jaflong, offering stunning views of the Meghalaya hills in India.
  • Explore the indigenous cultures of the Chittagong Hill Tracts, Sreemangal, and Rajshahi by visiting the remote villages of different tribal communities, whose customs, languages, and traditions differ significantly from the Bengali mainstream, offering a rare cultural experience in Bangladesh.
  • Explore the stunning mosques, temples, monasteries, and palaces of Rajshahi, Rangpur, and Dinajpur, which showcase a rich architectural heritage spanning from the medieval era to the British colonial period.
  • 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.
  • Visit remote island villages on the Ganges, Brahmaputra, and Meghna Rivers, as well as a traditional fishing village near the Sundarbans, to witness how locals adapt to the constant challenges of natural disasters, climate change, and sharing a border area with India.
  • 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.
  • Witness the energy of city beaches filled with thousands of local holidaymakers, then enjoy some quiet, secluded sandy beaches far from any tourist activity in Cox's Bazar—the third longest sea beach in the world.
  • Walk through colorful tribal bazaars in Bandarban and Rangamati, where indigenous people gather in traditional attire that you can't see in their villages.
  • Enjoy a scenic boat ride on Lake Kaptai in Rangamati and Lalakhal in Sylhet, and walk along the banks of the River Sangu in Bandarban, surrounded by rolling hills, forested shores, and glimpses of bustling life on the water.
  • 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.
  • 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 on the boat in Sundarbans, which you won't find at hotels in Bangladesh.
  • Wander through the scenic tea plantations of Sreemangal, home to rolling green hills and the heart of Bangladesh's tea industry, and learn about the communities closely related to them.
  • Take a guided nature walk in Lawachara National Park, one of Bangladesh's last remaining rainforests, and search for rare wildlife, including the endangered Western Hoolock Gibbons.
  • Explore the haunting street of Panam Nagar, an early 19th-century Hindu cotton merchant town that is now completely abandoned.
  • 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.

Provided the learning for which we travel

Bangladesh is a rewarding destination. Not because it has one or a few must-see sights (like the Taj Mahal, Amritsar, Bagan) for which a single trip would be justified. It’s the sum of all the varied experiences that makes Bangladesh special. It shouldn’t be missed.

Most beautiful country I have ever visited

It was the most beautiful country I have ever visited! Traveling by train, plane, and automobile was the best way to discover the beautiful culture of Bangladesh. The people have been super friendly, and the food was divine.

Exceeded every one of my expectations and dreams

Bangladesh exceeded every one of my expectations and dreams. A beautiful country of tranquil, peaceful rivers, bustling colourful cities, tribal villages, and the most incredible people - kind, helpful and happy. As a single woman, at no time did I feel intimidated, uncomfortable or afraid.

Truly the best trip we have ever done

My wife and I arrived in Dhaka New Years' Eve for 30 days of touring with Nijhoom Tours. We are senior Americans with extensive travel experience. It was truly the best trip we have ever done. We felt safe at all times - in fact, no one hassled us, bumped us, insulted us or bothered us throughout the 30 days.
