In short
Sylhet Tea Country and Jaflong, 2 Days is a 2-day, 1-night package that stays in Sylhet and Jaflong. It is run by Karnafully Travel Inc. Prices start at $95.00 per person on twin sharing.
Sylhet Tea Country and Jaflong is a two-day introduction to north-east Bangladesh, combining rolling tea estates, a revered Sufi shrine and clear rivers at the foot of the Khasi hills on the Meghalaya border. It suits couples, families and small groups of 4 to 14 who arrive in Sylhet by train or plane.
The first day stays close to the city, among the gardens where commercial tea in Bangladesh began and at the shrine of Hazrat Shah Jalal, the 14th-century saint whose compound is known for its sacred fish and pigeons. The second day heads about 60 km out to the border rivers for a slower, scenic day by the water. Timing matters: October to March is best, and river levels drop sharply from late March. Stone extraction has damaged the riverbeds at Jaflong, so please buy nothing made from river stone and leave the stones where they lie. It makes a relaxed weekend away from Dhaka.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Getting there
Most guests take the Parabat or Kalni Express from Dhaka (about seven hours) or a 45-minute domestic flight to Osmani International Airport. The tour starts at 11:00 in Sylhet city, so an early train or a morning flight works. Travel to Sylhet is not included in the price.
Timing & weather
October to March. The Piyain at Jaflong and the Sari river at Lalakhal are clear and calm in these months. From April the water rises and turns muddy, and in the monsoon the boat crossing at Jaflong can be suspended.
Yes. Visitors of all faiths can enter the compound. Shoes come off at the inner area, shoulders and knees should be covered, and women are asked to cover their heads.
The Sylhet Tea Country and Jaflong, 2 Days tour lasts 2 days / 1 night. Route: Sylhet (1 night) → Jaflong. Countries covered: Bangladesh.
General
No. Zero Point is a viewing area beside the border. The nearest land port is Tamabil, a few kilometres away, and crossing there needs an Indian visa and a separate exit; it is not part of this tour.
Light. Around 2 km on flat garden roads at Malnicherra and some walking on loose stones at Jaflong. Shoes with a good grip are better than sandals on the river stones.
Both are tied to legends about the saint. Visitors feed the catfish and snakeheads in the tank, and the Jalali pigeons around the compound are left unharmed.
Stay & facilities
Yes. The night is spent at a standard hotel in the Zindabazar or Amberkhana area, within 15 minutes of the shrine and the railway station. The exact hotel name is on your confirmation.
What's included
Breakfast on day two only. Lunch and dinner are paid locally; the escort suggests places, and a typical lunch in Sylhet or Jaflong costs between 300 and 600 taka per person.
Families & accessibility
