Dhaka’s Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport, in the north of the capital, is the main gateway to Bangladesh, while Shah Amanat International Airport near Chattogram (Chittagong) serves the south-east and the coast. Dhaka’s traffic can be heavy, so a Hazrat Shahjalal Airport transfer arranged before you land takes much of the stress out of arrival, and a Shah Amanat Airport transfer is the simple way into Chattogram or onward towards Cox’s Bazar. Book a door-to-door transfer on Tranigo: compare vehicles and local providers, and pay the price you see when you book.
Old Dhaka is the place to start, with the Mughal-era Lalbagh Fort, the pink Ahsan Manzil palace and the busy boats of Sadarghat on the Buriganga River. A popular day trip leads to Sonargaon, an old capital of Bengal, with the merchant houses of Panam Nagar. Longer journeys go to the Sundarbans mangrove forest, home of the Bengal tiger, to the tea gardens around Sylhet and Sreemangal, and to the long sandy beach of Cox’s Bazar south of Chattogram.
In the crowded lanes of Old Dhaka, a local guide makes it far easier to find the mosques, temples and Mughal monuments hidden among the bazaars, and to arrange a boat ride on the river. Use the Guides tab in the search above to look for a private guide, or write to us on WhatsApp.
