Contic Cruises
Contic Tours is a Bangladesh-based river tourism operator that offers services in and around Dhaka. They also offer a cruise in the south to the Sundarbans, the world’s largest mangrove forest, UNESCO World Heritage Site, and home of the Royal Bengal Tiger. "Contic" is an abbreviation of "confluence of technologies, ideas and cultures." 〔(contic.com )〕
Clients of the group have included former US President Bill Clinton, US media mogul Ted Turner, former cricketer Imran Khan, travel writer William Dalrymple, and international ministers and heads of state. Aerial photographer Yann Arthus Bertrand featured Contic's sailboat, the B613, in the Bangladesh episode of his documentary series, ''Earth from Above'' (Vue du Ciel) 〔(GoodPlanet: Vue du Ciel )〕
==History==
The company was founded in 1997 by Yves Marre〔(Yves Marre )〕 and Runa Khan. Contic aims to help preserve the area's heritage. To secure the knowledge of carpenters in this region of the world, Contic, in association with Friendship,〔(Friendship Association )〕 a charity organisation also based in Bangladesh, opened a boat museum and published a related book.〔(Friendship: Cultural Preservation Programme )〕 Both Contic and Friendship are attempting to document and preserve as much as possible of a boat-building tradition that is rapidly dying through the creation of model boats, exhibitions and active involvement with naval architects such as Marc Van Peteghem〔(VPLP Yacht Design )〕 and Thibault Saint-Olive.
