The Right Time to Visit:

Sajek is one of those places that gets better to look at with every season. But if you think about your own tour comfort and convenience, it will be good to travel in summer and winter. These seasons throw some beautiful colors to the nature of Sajek. That makes it even more exceptional to view. But if you truly want to take pleasure in the white clouds getting closer, then it’s best to tour during Late Autumn or rainy seasons.

Traveling to Sajek:

Sajek is located inside the Rangamati district. So, you need to travel to the Khagrachari district from Dhaka to visit the spot. There are many busses from Dhaka that can take you to Khagrachari.

You can book for Shyamoli, Shanti Paribahan, Saudia Paribahan, S. Alam, Eagle, and many more. Traveling on a non-Ac bus helps to save you some money with each ticket pricing for 520 Taka.

However, the AC busses are more comfortable to travel in. Those charge around 700 to 900 taka per ticket. You can visit Gabtali, Kalabagan or any convenient bus point in the city for counters. Buying the ticket in advance can help a lot, especially during holiday seasons.

After you reach Khagrachari, you need to reserve a jeep gari (also known as Chander Gari). This is to cross almost 70 kilometers and arrive at Sajek. The cost will be around 8 to 10 thousand including the returning fare.

If you are traveling in a group of 12 to 15 people, the cost won’t feel very expensive. But if you are touring with a tiny squad, maybe join another group to save a bit. You can also go by CNG by spending around 4 to 5 thousand. But keep in mind that the road is quite wavy. And you may not feel very good at traveling this way for the reason.

Another way you can choose is to go to Dighinala by bus or motorcycle. And then you can change the vehicle for traveling to Sajek. This route can be a bit more cost-effective when you cannot find another group for a ride by Chander Gari.

One important point that you cannot miss is reaching Dighinala before 10 in the morning. This is because there’s an army escort for the overall safety of road. You’ll find them available only twice a day. So, if you miss them at the morning, you’ll have to wait until the afternoon. If you still miss them in the afternoon, you’ll have to wait until the next day.

Staying at Sajek:

Spending a night at Sajek means to choose from 40 resorts and indigenous cottages here. Visiting with an early booking is the best way if you want to spend a night in a quality room.
