Great tour! - This was our first visit to Bangladesh and it was a great tour that made possible for us to visit in two days all the main attractions of Dhaka and Sonargaon. The tour was organized very well and the guides were very professional, helpful and friendly. We even visited more places than it was mentioned in the official itinerary. I would recommend this tour for everyone who wants to visit Dhaka.
