Tips & Important things to know before travelling to Pakistan

  • Internet & Wifi connectivity is sometimes good and sometimes it is poor especially in the NORTHERN REGION. A sim card could be provided by us on arrival in Pakistan for approx $10. However, keep in mind that you will not always have connection on your mobile device. Hotels also suffer with their Wifi connectivity due to lack of power supply so if you depend on WiFi, this trip is not for you. However, it gives you the opportunity to disconnect and enjoy the beautiful nature.
  • Hospitality in Pakistan is fantastic and people are very friendly.
  • Some drives will be be long on winding roads so be sure to carry motion sickness pills just in case
  • Delays could occur due to weather conditions (be it air or land transport)- so please be patient, we do not have control over mother nature but our partners in Pakistan will always find the best possible solution for you.
  • Spicy food is a way of life here. Therefore, at times we will be able to offer non-spicy options, however other times, the spice level will be toned down.
  • We advise to only drink bottled drinking water (even when brushing your teeth) and our partners in Pakistan will guide you with restaurants to eat in.
  • Our partners in Pakistan have the authority to change the itinerary last minute in the case of any weather conditions. This is for your safety & wellbeing.
