Well worth it! Very informative tour guide! Spent time with the local people of Dhaka which for me was the highlight.
This tour was one of the best I've ever done. The company and tour guide, Sajjat, could not be faulted in any way. I was collected on time in a very nice vehicle. They had bought some snacks and drinks for me also. The only tour company you should use in Bangladesh. Perfect!! Recommended!!
