But amidst the rough edges, Bangladesh is known for its welcoming and enduring spirit. With emerald hills and no shortage of adventure, a gap year in Bangladesh can be as rewarding as it is challenging.

A Guide to Gap Year Programs in Bangladesh

Why Take a Gap Year in Bangladesh?

With an economy that is still on the rise, most travelers focus their Bangladesh gap years on developmental issues including medical needs, the environmental, with an animal- or wilderness-focus, or general volunteer opportunities. Nevertheless, there are still inherent opportunities for self-discovery and hands-on learning. Bangladesh years are concentrated in Dhaka, the country’s capital, largest city, and primary hub for air travel.

Nestled on the bay of Bengal, with a hilly interior, Bangladesh is close to nature and is home to an array of ecologies. The country is closely tied to water and boat travel is still common and can provide a slow-paced, romantic way to see the country. The Sunderbans in the north are home to the largest population of tigers. While, inland to the south, hilly areas are both hikable and bikeable.
