Amazing Bangladesh-Bhutan-Sri Lanka
Asia Experience offers tours in many Asian countries and our tour organizer Netra has explored each of the destinations. We are very pleased with Netra for perfectly planning our Bangladesh, Bhutan, and Sri Lanka tours considering our duration and budget. All 3 nations were beautiful and unique and the inclusion of UNESCO sites and National Parks in our itinerary made each day more exciting and diverse.
Delighted with the top-notch services of the hotel with a nice breakfast that exceeded our expectations. A cherry on the top is big upgrades at no extra cost along with guides occasionally providing extra meals at no extra cost. Very thoughtful of the hotel to provide a to-go box on early morning departures. Similarly, entrance fees to National Parks, temples, and historic sites were mostly covered. We loved every minute and wished we had another day or two in each country.
A nice surprise with unexpected 24-hour layovers in Bangkok and Kathmandu due to our airlines rescheduling flights for the next day (which happened twice). More pleased with the warm gesture of Netra who adjusted our itinerary at no extra cost to accommodate the change so we wouldn’t miss anything in our itinerary.
In the future, we will book through Asia Experience again when we want to explore more countries in Asia.

Asia Experiences for satisfying service
Our Bangladesh tour was short and sweet. A short break from the hectic work and a tour of Bangladesh was refreshing. We finalized our booking with Asia Experiences after several queries with other travel agencies. We loved their offer and best suited us. The capital of Dhaka and Sonargaon sightseeing was wonderful. In one word, thanks to Asia Experiences for satisfying service.

Our tour memorable for a lifetime
The short hill station tour in India was mesmerizing. We find those 5 days were not enough. The pleasant weather and beautiful landmarks in Guwahati-Shillong-Cherrapunji along with appropriate management made our tour memorable for a lifetime. Thanks, Asia Experiences for providing full support & making our tour journey successful. Big Cheers.
