Dhaka → Gulshan: key facts

Gulshan from Dhaka Airport (DAC) by private transfer: €25 per car (1–3 people) or €35 per van (4–8), fixed per vehicle and identical to the checkout price. On the road it is 13 km via Dhaka Elevated Expressway, roughly 15 min when traffic is light and 15–25 min when it is not.

Meeting point: The driver waits in the international arrivals concourse hall on the ground floor of Terminals 1 and 2, the public area you enter through exit gates 1 and 2 after the customs green channel, holding a sign with your name. Flight tracking is included, the first hour after landing is free waiting time, and the driver carries your bags to the car.

Gulshan is the district where most embassies, international offices and large hotels of Dhaka are found, set around lakes in the north of the city. It is one of the shortest trips from the airport, about 13 km by road. The usual route follows Airport Road south past the cantonment area and turns east at Banani towards Gulshan 1 and Gulshan 2, the two main roundabouts; another option runs via Kuril and Progoti Sarani. Even over this short distance, journeys take noticeably longer at rush hour.

Gulshan Avenue links the two centres of the district: Gulshan 1, with shopping centres and markets, and Gulshan 2, with restaurants, cafes and many offices. Baridhara, the diplomatic zone with most embassies, lies just north-east across the lake, and Banani, with more hotels and restaurants, borders Gulshan to the west. Many guesthouses and serviced apartments sit on the quieter numbered roads between the main avenues, and entrances to the diplomatic area have security checks.

Public transport: The airport's own transport page lists only a free air-conditioned shuttle bus, launched in July 2026, that runs from the terminal to Jashimuddin intersection, Airport Railway Station and Kawla, all close to the airport; there is no airport-listed direct public transport link to Gulshan, so the onward trip continues on city buses, trains or the metro from those stops.
