The visit to the Armenian church was an eye opening experience. Suman gave me a good explanation of the church and the armenian life in Dakha

I visited Old Dhaka (Puran Dhaka) numerous times, but this tour was really eye opening for me as the Lost Panoroma team has roots at old dhaka. They are quite familiar with the lanes of Old Dhaka as well as their history! The tour was well organized, well communicated & full of enthusiasm. If you are interested in Old Dhaka, you shouldn't miss this walk.

Our group of 12 had a most wonderful time at the Armenian Walk. We're all Bangladeshis living in Dhaka and some of us have been to the locations before but it was great to have a "tour" of the place with information that we've never known before. The tour guides are truly passionate about the Old Dhaka and their love shines through and I would go on every walk they arrange! One of the nicest weekend activities you can do in Dhaka - please do this if you can :)
