Arafat was a great guide - Had a great day trip to Sonargaon and the island. Arafat was very knowledgable and speaks great English, which is very nice on a privte guided tour. They used a large new van with great AC, free water, and also included a really great and large local lunch, all paid for. I definitely recommend this tour, they don't cut corners and make sure that you have a great time while learning a lot!

Superb guide and very well organised tour - Fantastic your which I 100% recommend! Rabbi is a highly educated guide who takes time to explain everything in a really informative way. The trip included a great variety of stops, from historical Panam to traditional weaving and an island/village visit. 5*!

Excellent tour and driver - Excellent tour! Our guide was wonderful. Thoughtful, professional and highly knowledgeable about Sonargaon and Bangladesh culture and history in general. Panam is an evocative place, would have been a sight to behold in its glory days. Packed a lot of sites into the tour, but all was well planned and delivered. Was nice to get out of Dhaka for a slower pace and to appreciate Bangladesh’s countryside. Our tour driver was patient, friendly and an expert navigator of very busy traffic.

Fun and Unique Bangladesh Tour - Wonderful tour and delightful day with a great guide, Shahoriar Rabibi. He was not only super friendly, knowledgable, but he and our driver ended up chatting and have a nice day and lunch. The Sonargaon and Island Trip is quite beautiful and the old Capital and the history behind it is excellent. While I booked this tour through Viator, it was provided by Taabu Tours of Bangladesh and as I enjoyed it so much I booked a second, different day trip through them on a different topic. This tour and their company are well worth exploring! I enjoyed it a lot and learned a great deal.

A great tour with a great tour guide with lots of history. - This tour was very nice with lots of interesting sites. The Village Island visit was very enlightening. Sonargaon and the old Capital were particularly interest to me as a retired history teacher. My tour guide was fantastic with lots of information to share about all of the sites we visited. Add in her wonderful personality and it was a great day with an authentic meal to top it all off.
