A premium river cruising experience carried on tradition — fresh air, open water and unhurried hospitality inside Dhaka.
Gungchil River Cruise carries forward the old rhythm of river life around Purbachal — the kind that once moved goods and gossip along the Shitalakshya — and shapes it into an unhurried day of leisure for the modern traveller.
Every voyage pairs open water and fresh air with genuine comfort: shaded cabins, home-style meals, a resort to swim and unwind in, and destinations chosen for their character rather than convenience.
Private cabins, curated meals, attentive crew.
Wide river views far from the city noise.
A river-cruising culture kept authentic.
Couples, families and large groups alike.
1 spacious family cabin for up to 12 persons, with its own attached washroom.
4 cosy couple cabins sharing a common bathroom, ideal for couples travelling together.
Open-air rooftop seating arrangement for up to 40 people, perfect for taking in the river views.
From a quiet couple's morning on the water to a full-day family celebration — every package is built around comfort, food and the river itself.
Family & couple cabins available on request.
