No payment now. You will get a written quote with the vehicle and what is included.

  • You will know his name before you leave home

    Every journey has a named Sarothi, confirmed to you in advance with his photograph and the vehicle registration. Not whoever is free on the day.

  • One price. Agreed before you travel.

    Vehicle, route, timings and what is included — confirmed in writing before you commit. Nothing is negotiated at the kerb.

  • Sixty minutes of waiting, included

    However late the flight. We monitor the arrival and adjust; a delay outside your control is never charged as waiting time.

  • Nothing owed. Nothing expected.

    No tips, no end-of-journey extras, no quiet additions. What you agreed is what you pay, and your Sarothi is paid properly by us.

What we do

One vehicle, one Sarothi, arranged around the journey

Whether it is a single airport collection or a car assigned to your family for a month, the service is the same shape: the right vehicle, a named Sarothi, and a price agreed before you travel.

For families in Britain

Arrange the car before you fly. Not at the airport.

A very large share of what we do is booked from the UK — for people flying out, and for parents and relatives travelling without them. You send the flight, the passengers and the destination village. We confirm the vehicle, the Sarothi, the meeting point and the price in writing before departure.

  • Book for parents or relatives travelling without you
  • Village addresses planned in advance, not at midnight
  • Vehicles sized for people arriving with real luggage
  • One WhatsApp thread, answered across both time zones

Can I arrange everything before flying?

Yes — vehicle, Sarothi, meeting point and price, all in writing.

Can someone collect me from the airport?

At Dhaka, Sylhet, Chattogram and Cox's Bazar, including overnight arrivals.

Can I book for my parents?

Yes. You hold the booking; they simply meet a named Sarothi.

Can I book for the whole holiday?

Yes — the same vehicle and Sarothi for weeks or months at a time.

Nawab Cars — you will know his name before you leave home.

Where we drive

Sylhet, Dhaka, Chattogram, Cox's Bazar — and the villages in between

Strong coverage across the Sylhet division, where most of our British Bangladeshi work sits, alongside the major cities and the coast.

Why Nawab Cars

The difference is what happens before the journey

Anyone can send a car. We send a Sarothi.

A driver comes with every car in this market. A Sarothi does not — he is named, briefed on your journey, presented properly, and accountable for it from the first message to the last drop-off.

Our range leads with 4x4s, because these roads do

Outside the city centres, surfaces break up and village approaches are unsurfaced for the last stretch. We build the fleet around 4x4s — compact to flagship — rather than around what is cheapest to run.

We tell you the vehicle you need, not the one you asked for

Most transport problems here start with a car too small for the luggage. We ask about passengers, cases, ages and roads before we quote — and we will talk you out of the wrong booking.

Received, not collected

Your name on a board at the right exit, a Sarothi already in position, the luggage handled. The first hour in the country sets the tone for the rest of it.

How booking works

Four steps, no deposit at enquiry

Nothing is taken when you enquire. You get a quote first, in writing, and confirm only when you are happy with it.

  1. 01

    Tell us the journey

    Message on WhatsApp or send the enquiry form. Dates, passengers, luggage and where you are going.

  2. 02

    We recommend and quote

    The right class for the job and one price, in writing, with everything it includes set out plainly.

  3. 03

    You meet your Sarothi

    Before the day you receive his name, his photograph and the vehicle registration — so you know exactly who is coming.

  4. 04

    He is there when you land

    In position ahead of time, flight monitored, sixty minutes of waiting included. Nothing to settle at the end.

Answers

Questions we are asked most

More detail on our FAQ page, and on each service, location and route page.

Does renting a car in Bangladesh include a driver?

Yes. In Bangladesh, rent a car almost always means a vehicle supplied with a driver. We supply a Sarothi — a named professional driver, confirmed to you in advance with his photograph and the vehicle registration. Self-drive hire is rare here and, for most visitors, not advisable.

Can I book a car in Bangladesh from the UK before I fly?

Yes, and most of our airport work is booked that way. The whole arrangement is confirmed on WhatsApp in advance — vehicle, driver, meeting point and price. See booking from the UK.

Which areas of Bangladesh do you cover?

Sylhet and the wider Sylhet division, Dhaka, Chattogram and Cox's Bazar, along with intercity travel between them. See all locations.

How much does it cost to rent a car with a driver in Bangladesh?

It depends on the vehicle class, the duration and the distance. What does not vary is the principle: one price, agreed in writing before you travel, with nothing added at the end. Send us the journey and we will quote it properly.

Can you collect us from the airport at night?

Yes. Many international arrivals at Dhaka and Sylhet land in the early hours, and those collections are routine. Flights are monitored and a waiting period is included.

Can I hire a car and driver for several weeks?

Yes. For visits of two weeks or more, a monthly arrangement with the same driver throughout is almost always better value than daily bookings.

Ready when you are

Tell us the journey. We will tell you the vehicle and the price.

Send the date, the passengers and where you are going. You will get a written quote with the vehicle, the Sarothi and exactly what is included — before you commit to anything.

No deposit taken at enquiry. Every quote states the vehicle, the Sarothi and what is included.
