Following a hotel pick-up, your first stop will be Jaflong, one of the most attractive and wonderful natural destinations in Sylhet, situated by the River Mari with clear water through the valley of hills. You can watch the stone collection from the river in Jaflong. Explore also the lifestyle of Tribe Khashia.
Continue to the Lalakhal Boat Trip. Lalakhal is a nice big river which flows from India. This river is shared with India and Bangladesh. Its origin is in the Meghalaya state of India. This river carries a huge amount of sediments and stones from the upstream to Bangladesh, and local people lift those stone for business purposes. The journey to the Lalakhal through Shari River is really a wonderful experience. Here, you will see the mountain range of Meghalaya from the Lalakhal Boat Trip through the Shari River. The water is surprisingly clear and blue. By evening your guide will drop off you at your Sylhet hotel.
