I contacted many companies but many of them are lazy to answer and their itineraries also not perfect as professionals in them Tours and Trips Bangladesh answered very prompt and I found their itinerary was much realistic and smooth. I enjoyed Classical Bangladesh tour. The whole trip to Bangladesh is for me is unforgettable.
