On this page we attempt to make available the experience of individual bicycle tourists who travel to Bangladesh (you can share your experiences here).
India, Pakistan, Bangladesh and Nepal
India, Pakistan, Bangladesh and Nepal
All trains, buses and boats in India, Pakistan, Bangladesh and Nepal take bikes. No need to pack them. For buses and boats just turn up: cycles are normal luggage. For trains turn up an hour or two before departure, go to the Foreign Tourist office of big stations, and at the luggage office of small stations, and ask how to book. Fees are negligable.Cyclists in south Asia must take special care over dehydration and over theft: I'll happily send you a note if asked.
