Reviews

“Best guide in Dhaka!”

Abid is the kind of guide who can completely change the way you experience a city. He didn’t just show me Dhaka — he took me into the real Dhaka, far beyond the usual tourist attractions. From the chaotic streets of the city to local villages and places I would never have found on my own, every part of the day felt authentic and genuinely interesting. He is extremely knowledgeable, friendly, flexible and, most importantly, genuinely passionate about his city. If you want to see the real Dhaka rather than just tick off tourist sights, I honestly couldn’t recommend Abid more. One of the best guides I’ve had anywhere.

Thank you so much for your kind words and wonderful review! It was truly a pleasure showing you the real Dhaka and sharing the local culture, hidden gems, and everyday life of my city with you. I’m really glad you enjoyed the experience and found it authentic and memorable. For me, guiding is not just about showing places; it’s about sharing stories, connecting with people, and helping them see my city through local eyes. Your appreciation means a lot to me. I hope our paths cross again someday, and I would be delighted to show you more of Bangladesh.

“Railway Slom Tour and Ship Breaking Yard”

Abid R. picked me up at my hotel, we introduced ourselves, and then our Dhaka tour began. First, he took me to a covered and open-air food market before heading to my first destination: the slum near the railway. After an impressive walk through the slum, he bought me a drink, and we headed to my second destination: Dhaka's small Shipbreaking Yard. Abid R. rented a boat for the crossing, and we strolled through the yard and behind it, where the workers were at work. We returned to the hotel by boat and tuk-tuk and said our goodbyes. I look back on one of my most beautiful days in Bangladesh, and if I ever return, I will definitely call Abid R. again for another Tour. The photos give you an impression of our Tour (Slum, Ship Breaking Yard, Tuk-Tuk and streetlife)!

Thank you very much for your wonderful and detailed review. It was truly a pleasure meeting you and guiding you through Dhaka. I’m glad you enjoyed exploring the local food markets, the railway slum, the shipbreaking yard, and experiencing Dhaka’s vibrant street life by boat and tuk-tuk. Your kind words mean a lot to me, and I’m especially happy to know that the tour became one of your most beautiful memories in Bangladesh. Showing visitors the real, authentic side of Dhaka is always my goal. I sincerely appreciate your recommendation and would be delighted to welcome you again whenever you return to Bangladesh. Until then, I wish you safe travels and many more unforgettable journeys.
