By bus from Dhaka
- Start from any convenient transportation hub in Dhaka like Mohakhali, Uttara, or Airport Road.
- Find a bus to Gazipur or Rajendrapur that uses the Dhaka-Mymensingh highway and stops at your designated station. Local travel guides mention Ananya Classic, Bhawal Paribahan, and Samrat Transline, but it is necessary to check their current routes and availability.
- Ask the conductor if the service stops near Rajendrapur Pepsi Gate , which is a popular entry point to the resort.
- Get off at the designated stop and hire a local CNG autorickshaw, battery-powered autorickshaw, or rickshaw to head towards Dolipara and Saheb Bari Road.
- Tell the driver the full name and address of the resort. If necessary, show the resort's confirmed map location or call reception for final directions.
Estimated budget for public transport: Depending on the service and distance, allow around 80–200 taka per person for a main bus journey from any suitable departure point in Dhaka. Budget around 50–200 taka for short-distance local rickshaw or auto-rickshaw travel, although costs may be higher for longer journeys, reserved vehicles and limited availability. These are planning estimates, not verified current fares or price lists for any specific route.
From Dhaka by private car or rented vehicle
- From your departure area, generally enter the Dhaka-Mymensingh Highway via Airport Road and Uttara.
- Proceed north towards Gazipur and Rajendrapur areas, following a live navigation app.
- Take the appropriate local road to Baroipara Road, Dolipara and Saheb Bari Road.
- To reach the final stage, follow the resort's specific entry instructions, rather than just relying on the general name of the Rajendrapur area.
The drive from central Dhaka can take approximately one and a half to three hours or more, depending on the starting point, traffic, and route. It may be faster from northern Dhaka. The resort is not located directly on the main highway, so allow extra time for the final local road section.
Private car rental prices vary considerably based on the size of the vehicle, distance traveled, waiting time, and fuel options. For a basic budget, tourists can expect a private car with a driver for a day trip to Dhaka to cost around 4,000–8,000 dirhams or more, depending on different quotes, tolls, and parking arrangements. Larger microbuses typically cost more. Ask the operator to include the return journey time and waiting time in writing.
By train
Passengers can also consider Bangladesh Railway services from Dhaka to Joydevpur or any other suitable station on the Gazipur rail corridor. Before purchasing tickets, check the current timetable and make sure that the selected train stops at the intended station.
- Board a suitable train from Dhaka's rail network.
- Get off at Joydevpur Railway Station or any other convenient station.
- Rent a CNG autorickshaw or reserved vehicle to go to Rajendrapur Cantonment and Dolipara.
- Proceed along the local connecting roads to Saheb Bari Resort.
Traveling from the station to the resort can take quite a while, so traveling by train is not always cheaper or faster than a direct bus. Before boarding a reserved vehicle, find out the local fare. Depending on the station and route, traveling by reserved road can cost several hundred taka or more.
From Gazipur District Headquarters
Visitors starting their journey from Joydevpur, Gazipur intersection or the administrative areas of the district can arrange for a CNG auto-rickshaw, private vehicle or local bus directly towards Rajendrapur. From any convenient stop in Rajendrapur, proceed by local vehicle till Saheb Bari Road. The journey on private roads may take approximately 30-60 minutes or more, depending on the starting point and traffic congestion.
For convenient travel with children, elderly guests, or luggage, pre-booked transportation is often more efficient than repeatedly switching between local services.
From Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport
Passengers arriving by air will need to land at Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport in Dhaka . There is no separate commercial passenger airport at the resort. From the airport, hire a taxi or private car and head north along the Dhaka-Mymensingh highway towards Rajendrapur, then follow the local roads of Dolipara and Sahib Bari Road.
Depending on traffic, it can take an estimated 1.5 to 2.5 hours or more to reach the airport. According to Google Hotel Travel Information, this journey used to take about 1.5 hours. Airport taxi fares vary depending on the operator and type of vehicle; therefore, it is advisable to request a specific fare in advance.
