Royal Bengal Tours is a specialist travel company, founded in 2012 by Mostafizur Rahaman Jewel, a well-known and well-regarded travel guide and expert on Bangladesh. Having traveled the length and breadth of his native country over the past decade, ‘Jewel’ has himself often been described by travelers as being ‘the jewel of Bangladesh’ and has an ever-growing catalog of glowing testimonials from foreign and local travelers as well as from others in the tourism trade. It was Hubert Koekenberg, founder of the Anarosh Foundation (a free education program for poor students in Bangladesh) who having witnessed Jewel’s passion, insisted he offer his skills and enthusiasm to other visitors to Bangladesh. As the founder of Royal Bengal Tours, Jewel is proud to be leading the way in sustainable tourism in Bangladesh and to be part of a small and personal company. As The Royal Bengal Tours grows, details remain all important. From accommodation and transport to the itinerary that gets you there, the company’s far-reaching local knowledge and contacts give clients the very best experience possible. For Royal Bengal Tours, tourism is not only a business, but in the truest sense, it is an art, which has the power to enlighten and inspire.
