Private jet charter and flights to Bangladesh
The green jewel of South Asia, Bangladesh is an unexplored wonder connected by hundreds of rivers that breathe life into its lush jungles and bustling cities. A destination for the adventurous, Bangladesh travel can be both leisurely and stressful - only when you relax and embrace this country’s quirks can you truly begin to enjoy the unique experience it offers.
When planning a Bangladesh travel itinerary, first on the list needs to be the mangrove forests of Sundarbans National Park. The Unesco World Heritage site is one of the most captivating natural wonders in the world. Home to the powerful and majestic Royal Bengal Tiger, visitors are taken on an exclusive tour through the meandering mangroves and beautiful jungle this country is renowned for. From the safety of your endearing wooden rowboat, you may even see leopards, boars, wild cats and pangolins on the sprawling banks of the river.
Across on the eastern shoreline lies one of the longest natural beaches in the world - Cox’s Bazar. There are a number of opulent resorts that have claimed real estate here, and is one of the few places in the country where visitors can enjoy some quintessential beach luxury. As well as endless picturesque walks, the inviting Indian Ocean waters are perfect for a refreshing dip or even a surf on the bounding waves.
There are more hidden treasures in this country that are just waiting to be discovered. While Bangladesh is a largely Muslim cocuntry, there are Buddhist and Chirstian Adivasi influences here, leading to a plethora of ancient and grand temples. The Biddhist remains at Paharpur is a particular highlight, as are the 15th century mosques and mausoleums of Bagerhat - both of which are Unesco World Heritage sites.
The cities in Bangladesh are hectic, noisy and energetic bundles of energy. With 17 million people crammed into a river city full of rickety row boats, rickshaws and narrow streets, Dhaka is one of the most densely populated places in the world. In fact, only around 7% of the space here is dedicated to paved roads, meaning you have to come to terms with the fact that travel is slow and frustrating. However, once you accept this, the city’s charm begins to reveal itself. Shankharia Bazar represents its colourful nature, while Mughal and former British monuments speak of its history. There is gradual investment into tourism beginning to show here, with the contemporary parliament building, Sher-e-Bangla Nagar, demonstrating this effort.
Bangladesh’s second largest city is Chittagong, a fascinating corner of the country perfect for a stopover. Indeed, many travellers pass through here either to head to Cox’s Bazar or acquire hard-to-get travel permits for the Hill Tracts in the east. Along with interesting museums and gorgeous coastal walks, this is an ideal place to sample authentic cuisine and to learn more about Bangladeshi culture from the friendly locals that reside here.
