Fascinating tour through the chaos that is Dhaka! Palaces and places of worship, shops and shipbuilding. My guide for the day was young Mr. Afridi, who was a real pleasure, both knowledgeable and an enjoyable companion. Highly recommended.

We were really lucky to have an awesome guide, Mahadi, who, besides speaking a very good level of English, is super patient (specially when you have 3 kids !!) and knows loads of local History. We took 2 day trips with him, one to the Old Dhaka and a fantastic boat trip to Balu river where we could spot a family of dolphins. The kids loved it 😄Tarek B

Incredible tour! Tuk tuks, rickshaws, boats and lots of walking made for a really interesting and fun day. If you only have 1 day in Dhaka - this is the way to do it. No reservations about recommending this tour :)

This was my first time in Dhaka and this was the way to do it! Mahadi was an excellent guide. Since the company offers private tours, he allowed us to edit our itinerary based on what we wanted to see. Just having access to a driver in crowded Dhaka makes this price WELL worth it. We learned a great deal about the history and culture. Thanks for a perfect day!
