-- Dhaka, Bangladesh – 23 November 2025 — Deshghuri.com, a Bangladesh tour company known for cultural immersion experiences, has announced a renewed focus on heritage-based travel programs that highlight the country’s deep-rooted traditions. These itineraries bring international travelers into close contact with the cultural landscapes of Rajshahi, the Indigenous Shaotal community, and the rare practice of otter fishing in southern Bangladesh.
Located along the Padma River, Rajshahi is widely recognized for its handwoven silk, archaeological sites, and long-standing artistic traditions. As part of Deshghuri.com’s cultural routes, travelers observe regional craftsmanship and historic landmarks that contribute to the area’s reputation as a center of Bangladesh travel.
Beyond the city, visitors are introduced to the Shaotal community, one of the country’s oldest Indigenous groups. Guided programs offer opportunities to learn about daily life, community rituals, and traditional music, providing insight into how ancestral customs continue in modern rural settings.
One of the most distinctive elements of the itinerary is the introduction to otter fishing Bangladesh is known for—an ancient human-animal fishing partnership practiced today by only a few families in the Narail and Khulna regions. The cooperative method, where trained otters help herd fish into nets, represents a cultural tradition that has been preserved for more than two centuries.
“Bangladesh remains one of the few destinations where heritage is lived rather than staged,” said a spokesperson for Deshghuri.com. “Our goal is to create responsible cultural travel experiences that honor local communities while offering visitors meaningful insight into traditions that are rarely seen elsewhere.”
Deshghuri.com’s “Trip Like Local” approach emphasizes direct community engagement, encouraging travelers to explore villages, share meals with local families, and visit historic temple complexes such as those in Puthia. Each program is developed in collaboration with regional hosts and artisans to support cultural preservation and ensure respectful visitor interaction.
As global interest in authentic cultural travel continues to grow, Bangladesh’s diverse heritage—from its Indigenous communities to its centuries-old fishing practices—offers travelers new opportunities to connect with living history.
