Bangladesh doesn’t hide from it poverty and instead, makes it something beautiful that will have visitors thinking about it long after they’d left. The capital city of Dhaka is loud and bustling, and will have visitors thoroughly exposed to the ways and customs of the country in no time at all!

In Bangladesh, the people are welcoming and with the call to prayer in all towns and cities, locals are happy to invite you along for the experience and for a cup of tea after. Getting around Dhaka will most likely be done in the back of a rickshaw, but be ready for potholes and animals on the road, all adding to the experience of it all!

Out of the big cities, and sometimes even within, hygiene and things such as western toilets are not common, so prepare for a unique experience. Immerse yourself completely in the cuisine of this exotic country as there are few western fast food franchises. By the end of a week you’ll be so accustomed to rice and chilly that by the time you go home, you’ll be craving for more. Roti and dahl are staple foods so get ready to use your fingers and enjoy some authentic cuisine.

Bangladesh has only recently become a tourist destination, and with that in mind, it is a wonderful place to visit, if a bit unsystematic. Visitors to Bangladesh should practice caution, as with all large cities and countries. Locals are very friendly, and willing to help visitors out. Out of the cities, locals may be less familiar with foreigners and very curious, and may want to engage in conversation. Public transport in Dhaka is efficient, but not always the safest as it gets extremely full and can be uncomfortable.

It is always important to go for a general health check-up before a trip overseas. It is best to do this 4-6 weeks before your trip. For your trip to Bangladesh, it is strongly recommended to get the following vaccinations: hepatitis A and typhoid.

Currently, there has been an outbreak of Zika in Bangladesh and pregnant women are not recommended to travel there. Zika is spread via mosquito bites and unprotected sexual encounters.
