ABOUT US

A Journey Through Passion, Experience, and Service!

“Christopher Columbus could have stayed home, but he decided to sail.” Back in 2008, out of passion, I chose to become an English-Speaking Tour Guide with the then-best tourism company of Bangladesh. Consequently, I began guiding tourists from all over the world to all the touristic destinations of Bangladesh for several consecutive years.

By connecting with different tourists from various cultures, I never grew bored, even when visiting the same place repeatedly. I enjoy sharing knowledge and am an avid learner from each guest. I have guided more than a thousand tourists from different corners of the world, from Alaska to New Zealand, Chile to Japan, as well as Norway to South Africa. I could see the world through the stories of my global guests, and in return, they could hear stories of my own country, Bangladesh. Therefore, my passion became my profession, and I am thoroughly enjoying it. I do what I love to do, striving to ensure a genuine travel experience for my guests while guiding in Bangladesh.

My two-year post-graduation program in World Heritage Studies from Germany provided me with immense opportunities for global learning, and I visited several European countries. Later, as a young consultant, I traveled to the Kingdom of Bahrain and wrote the Visitor Management Chapter of a UNESCO World Heritage Site, Qalat-Al-Bahrain. My gratitude goes to BMZ and EU for granting me the scholarship to be a consultant to develop the CSR report of Zerafshan Tourism Development Association, funded by Welthungerhilfe. There, I closely worked with the mountainous communities of Tajikistan and developed the community-based eco-tourism supply chain model. Despite the opportunity to stay in Europe, I decided to return to Bangladesh to apply my knowledge.

Consequently, I have returned with a sound understanding of community-based Eco Tourism, World Heritage management, tangible and intangible cultural heritage, and climate change adaptation. I presented an international paper at Martin Luther University of Halle-Wittenberg on “The prospect of Sustainable Tourism in Sundarbans.” Lastly, I worked for USAID’s Bengal Tiger Conservation Activity in Sundarbans for 03 years and supported field activities of Penthera Wildlife Trust – UK, also assisting Awely’s Wildlife and People documentary on Tiger Victim & Tiger Widow, telecast on TF1, France. I am an avid photographer and have had 02 exhibitions in Hessen & Berlin, Germany. I was fortunate to be the 1st prize winner of a photo competition “40 years of German Bangladesh friendship” organized by the German Embassy, Dhaka & BGCCI.

Therefore, Dhaka City Tours is a new tourism initiative reflecting my 12 years of diverse experiences and travels to 18 countries. I aim to bridge the gaps in existing tourism in Bangladesh.
