I visited Dhaka from 18 to 21 March 2019, in weather that was not too hot nor too humid. Construction of a rail public transport system, and students' protests, made traffic more noisy and chaotic than usual. But Razbe, my very experienced and knowledgeable guide, and the drivers he hired, nevertheless managed to get me to visit some of the most interesting sites in the capital city (Sadarghat, Ahsan Manzil Museum, Curzon Hall, Lalbagh Fort, Shaheed Minar) and around (Folk Art & Craft Sonargaon Museum, Panam City), experiences not to be missed, but which might be overwhelming for most visitors without a guide. I highly recommend Razbe's company, Orient Tourism Channel, when planning custom made visiting tours of Bangladesh. He was always punctual, efficient (Also with emails), and receptive to suggestions. I stayed at the InterContinental Hotel (Former Sheraton), which I also highly recommend, for the very friendly and helpful staff, quiet rooms, and sumptuous Western food buffet.
