Gemme e segreti nascosti della vecchia Dhaka
Descrizione
Andate oltre la guida ed entrate nell'anima viva di Dacca. Questa esperienza unisce accesso curato, narrazione e immersione sensoriale. Camminerete tra vicoli dimenticati, entrerete in dimore coloniali e cortili artigianali solitamente chiusi al pubblico. Guidati da narratori culturali, ogni dettaglio, dalle piastrelle di mosaico che tocchi al chai che sorseggi, è progettato per sentirti cinematografico, intimo e senza sceneggiatura. Limitato a otto ospiti per partenza, è meno un tour e più un archivio vivente dei segreti della città.

Il quartiere Armanitola degli armeni offre uno sguardo affascinante sulla ricca storia multiculturale di Dacca. Durante il XVII e il XVIII secolo, i mercanti armeni migrarono nel Bengala, stabilendo una fiorente comunità in quello che oggi è noto come Armanitola, un vivace quartiere della Vecchia Dacca. Gli armeni portarono con sé la loro cultura unica, il loro acume negli affari e le loro tradizioni, contribuendo in modo significativo all'economia di Dacca, in particolare nel commercio e nei tessili.
La Ruplal House è un palazzo storico situato lungo le rive del fiume Buriganga a Dacca, in Bangladesh. Costruita alla fine del XIX secolo da due ricchi mercanti, Ruplal Das e suo fratello Raghunath Das, la casa mostra un'elegante miscela di stili architettonici europei e moghul. Un tempo simbolo di opulenza, il palazzo presenta grandi saloni, intricate sculture in legno e ampi cortili. Nonostante il suo stato fatiscente attuale, Ruplal House rimane un importante punto di riferimento culturale e storico, che riflette la grandezza del passato coloniale di Dacca e il ricco patrimonio della classe mercantile della città
Northbrook Hall, situato a Dacca, è un edificio storico costruito durante il periodo coloniale britannico. Prende il nome da Lord Northbrook, il viceré dell'India, è stato inaugurato nel 1881 come municipio e centro culturale. L'architettura di Northbrook Hall riflette lo stile coloniale con il suo design elegante e gli elementi decorativi. Nel corso degli anni, è servito a vari scopi, tra cui ospitare eventi sociali, programmi culturali e incontri pubblici. Oggi, Northbrook Hall si erge come simbolo del ricco patrimonio coloniale di Dacca e continua ad essere un importante luogo per attività culturali e comunitarie.

My husband and I loved discovering Old Dhaka’s hidden gems. The tour was well-paced for us as seniors, with time to rest and enjoy. The food tastings were delicious, and the stories brought the city’s history alive. A thoughtful, memorable experience we’ll always cherish.
Thank you so much for sharing these kind words. It was truly a joy to have you both with us in Old Dhaka. I’m delighted the pacing felt right and that the food and stories added warmth to the experience. Your presence reminded us that travel isn’t about rushing it’s about savouring moments together. We’ll always be glad to welcome you back for more hidden stories whenever you return.
I've been on two tours in Old Dhaka with Secrets Bangladesh (I brought my friends one time and husband the other), and would recommend it to anyone! It's easy to communicate with the team, and our guide Sarfaraz (Edward) was knowledgeable, fun and easygoing.Only point to improve was that they did not check whether Lalbagh was open on the day or not. We drove there, and it was closed. It's still a must to elevate your understanding of both Dhaka and Bangladesh 🇧🇩
Thank you so much for your thoughtful feedback and for recommending Secrets Bangladesh! We’re absolutely delighted to know you had memorable experiences with us and that our very own, Eddie, made your tours engaging, fun, and insightful. We truly appreciate your kind words and take your constructive feedback seriously. We’ll make sure to double-check site availability, like Lalbagh, to ensure your experiences go smoothly in the future. Your support means the world to us, and we can’t wait to welcome you and your loved ones on another adventure! 🇧🇩✨ Best,
Living in Dhaka, I did experience old Dhaka a few times, but never like this or in such detail. Mishak and his team are doing an excellent job. We got to see most of the heritage buildings and learn the history. They are very very thorough at what they do. Also very professional. We walked through many alleys with rich history, the spice market, banks of the Buriganga river and was lucky to be able to go up to a few rooftops and balconies with incredible views; which ARE the ‘secrets’ of Dhaka. I would suggest this for everybody, old and young, foreign or local. Sadly, we couldn’t do the food tour, or try any food places as we were short on time. Wear comfortable shoes, and that’s all you need! The rest will be taken care of by the team of SecretsBangladesh! Loved every bit and wasn’t bored for a minute. Thank you Secrets! 🙏
Thank you so much for your kind words and for joining us on this journey through the rich history and hidden corners of Old Dhaka! We are beyond thrilled that you experienced the heritage, alleys, and views with a fresh perspective and appreciated every thoughtful detail we put into our tours. Walking through history, exploring the spice market, and enjoying the Buriganga riverbanks from unique rooftops is what makes Dhaka’s story come alive, and it was a pleasure to share that with you. We’re sorry you missed the food tour, but it gives us a great reason to welcome you back next time—there’s so much more to taste and explore! Thank you for recommending us to all, young or old, foreign or local. You’re right—comfortable shoes and an open heart are all that’s needed; the rest is taken care of by our dedicated team. We can’t wait to host you again! With gratitude, Team Secrets Bangladesh 🙏✨
Had an amazing tour with the guide, especially enjoyed the spice Market and the view on the river. The highlight definitely was the secret climbers' POV ;)

We’re especially glad you enjoyed the secret climbers’ POV—it’s those hidden gems that make our experiences truly unforgettable. We can’t wait to welcome you back for more secrets to discover with us!
We visited some sites that are hardly covered within general tours but have very unique stories and meaning. Highlights were the visit to hidden architectural marvels and trying local delicacies from special cafes that I’d never find alone.
Thank you for your kind review! We’re thrilled to hear that you enjoyed discovering hidden architectural marvels and indulging in unique local delicacies. Our goal is to provide exclusive experiences that showcase the rich and lesser-known aspects of Bangladesh. We look forward to welcoming you on another adventure soon!
