I did a tour of Bangladesh with Naeem as my guide which was actually in Jan 2020. He has since started his own tour company. He is very knowledgeable and an excellent guide. Bangladesh is a wonderful country to visit with lots to see. It has a lot of history, culture and nature and Dhaka, the capital, is a very busy bustling city with a lot to see and do. The people are friendly and I felt very safe walking around on my own. The tour to Sonargaon is amazing as it is an old capital city that is now a historic site with beautiful old architecture. I would highly recommend Naeem and Mystic Bengal tours.
Thank you so much for your kind words! We're thrilled you enjoyed your tour of Bangladesh me. We hope to welcome you back to Bangladesh soon!
