Transportation to Dhaka City Center from Airport

Travelling to Dhaka from Hazrat Shahjalal Airport is practical and easy. As you can travel to the city center by renting a car with a private driver or benefitting from taxi companies; it is possible to get on a bus and reach the city center by paying 5 Taka.

The public transportation network in Dhaka isn’t very developed and the means of public transportation aren’t generally preferred because of the insufficient security measures in the city. For your transportation in the city, the most convenient and economical means of transportation that you can take advantage of during your visit are rickshaws working with taxi system.

In addition to these, you can rent a car with a driver or use buses for your shorter distance travels.

Bus

When you leave the terminal of Hazrat Shahjalal Airport and walk for 5 minutes, you will see a small bus station. From this station, buses operate at frequent intervals and carry passengers to Dhaka. The fare you need to pay in order to get one of the buses that pick passengers up on Airport Road is 5 Taka by 2016. It is difficult to find a bus after 08:00 pm because public transportation is not safe enough.

The last stop of the buses carrying passengers from the airport to the city center is the Gulistan bus terminal located in the city.

Rickshaw

Thanks to the colorful rickshaws that you can see at the exit of the airport terminal, you can get to Dhaka city center in a very short time. There are three different types of rickshaws in terms of speed and size. There are auto-rickshaws, cycle-rickshaws and tempo-rickshaws. These vehicles are the most popular means of transportation among tourists.

If there is too much traffic and you are in a hurry, you can get on a rickshaw. Auto-rickshaws having a fare of only 10 Taka per kilometer can be one of the most affordable and reasonable options to go to the city center from the airport.
