Lahore's greatest hits in one expertly guided day, with an optional Wagah finale.Real photography to be added

Overview

This is the definitive first day in Lahore. In one carefully paced day you’ll stand in the courtyards of the Mughal emperors at Lahore Fort, watch light move across the red sandstone of Badshahi Mosque, walk the Royal Trail through the living Walled City past Wazir Khan Mosque and the Shahi Hammam — and, if you choose, finish at the roaring Wagah Border flag ceremony.

Your licensed guide handles tickets, timing and the stories that make these stones matter. Lunch is at a trusted local restaurant, adjusted to your taste and spice tolerance.
