Summary: Zia is the most experienced and knowledgeable tour guides I’ve ever gone on a tour with. He had an answer to pretty much every question, and organized a tour for my friends and I to see Dhaka with the one full day we had there. Wholeheartedly recommend booking with Zia to not only see the sights, but understand Bangladesh on a deeper level.
