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.

Excellent tour - We had Shahoria on this tour, really loved seeing Sonaragaon- a must - and an enjoyable boat ride. Shahoria and the driver were very professional and ensured we had a great experience. The car was very comfortable and lunch was also delicious. Recommended for any stay in Bangladesh. Thank you!

Lovely day - We went with our guide Jafar to the Old capital and Sonargaon, wonderful place to visit. Then to island and we were lucky to actually chat in the school with the kids and principal. The houses are so beautiful and feels full with weird huge cucumbers :). We saw nice fresh catch (huge river fishes) and so many other things. Great day. Jafar took us to the brick factory, such a hard work. He is very efficient young man to try to make the life of the kids (of the parents working in the factory) better & get good education. Applause to him & his team.
