Package holiday to Dhaka

Dhaka is the capital of Bangladesh and one of the most densely populated cities on Earth — over 10 million people in the city center, 22 million in the metropolitan area, crammed into an area smaller than Hamburg. The result is a city of overwhelming intensity: chaotic, loud, colorful, welcoming, and an unforgettable experience for any traveler seeking authentic experiences beyond tourist paths.

Old Dhaka is the heart of the city: a labyrinth of narrow alleys where rickshaws — the most colorful in the world, each a moving work of art — weave through crowds. Lalbagh Fort, an unfinished Mughal fortress from the 17th century, tells of the time when Dhaka was a significant provincial capital of the Mughal Empire. Ahsan Manzil, the pink palace of the Nawabs on the banks of the Buriganga, is now a museum and one of the most photogenic buildings in the city.

The Buriganga River is Dhaka's lifeline and simultaneously its most dramatic experience: at Sadarghat, the largest river port terminal in the world, hundreds of ferries, rockets (river steamers), and cargo boats dock daily. The hustle and bustle at Sadarghat at sunset — when steamers honk, fishermen haul in their nets, and the setting sun bathes the river in gold — is one of the most impressive urban scenes in Asia.

What makes Dhaka particularly special for travelers is the warmth of its residents: Bangladesh is considered one of the friendliest countries in the world, and in Dhaka, a foreign visitor is greeted with a curiosity and warmth that has long been lost in touristy countries. You will be invited for tea, asked to share a meal, photographed, and questioned — and it is precisely these human encounters that make Dhaka a destination you will not forget.

Dhaka particularly impresses with fascinating culture. As a package holiday destination, you benefit from attractive all-inclusive packages with flights, hotels, and often transfers – all at a fixed price and fully secured.
