4-Days Bangladesh World Heritage Private Tour: North Bengal

I’m glad I took this trip which was very well organized by MAM Holidays. My driver spoke very little English, but the main thing was that he was extremely able to deal with the, let’s say, “inventive” driving on the roads and streets of Bangladesh. He was helpful and willing to stop for me to take photos. My guide spoke good English and took good care of any requests that I had. Essentially he was able to communicate with locals where I was not in command of the language. Whether with my guide or in my own I was safe at all times. You will probably meet very few foreigners, but the friendly people of Bangladesh will do everything they can to make you feel welcome.

We booked this 4 days tour with MAM and we added a full day Dhaka tour with Sonargaon and Panam City and a visit to Cumilla, in fact a 7 days archaeological tour and our experience was above expetations. Our guide Nizam was extremly helpuful, knowledgeable and kind and the driver an excellent one, we didn't miss any objective, more they suggested us new places to explore, they tok us a lot of pictures and they have chosen for us the best local restaurants - the Banladeshi food is amazing! The agency was very cooperative respecting all our requests regarding the itinerary - in fact we booked 3 tours in one! - and accomodation. Respect same time friendly attitude, professionalism and one of the best staff I ever met during our travels in more than 150 countries. Thank you, MAM, for let us know the true Bangladesh during an unforgettable 7 days experience!

The trip was a wonderful experience on so many levels. Getting to visit the archaeological sites in North Bangal was amazing. Some of the Hindu Temples and Mosques are still in very good shape and you marvel at the craftsmanship. You also learn a lot of local and national history. The team from MAM Holidays Bangladesh worked very hard to make this an experience of a life time. They took excellent care of us. And yes, we felt perfectly safe on this trip (a lot of our friends have been wondering about that, so I will volunteer this information here). In addition to visiting archaeological sites in North Bengal, you also get a close look at the local culture. We were able to see how the rural population lives, and experienced the openness and friendliness of the rural communities. Last, not least, you get to taste the local cuisine in what is considered middle class restaurants. The curries are superb. Overall, I highly recommend this trip for the lover of history and archaeology. We were so happy about our experience that we will book with MAM Holidays anytime we are in the area and want to take a trip.
