Overview

For those who want to leave nothing out, ten days cover Pakistan’s Sikh heritage comprehensively and calmly. Alongside the core sites — Lahore, Nankana Sahib, Kartarpur and Panja Sahib — there’s room for lesser-visited gurdwaras, the Gandhara heritage of Taxila, Rohtas Fort, and simply more time for darshan, langar and reflection without the clock pressing.

It’s ideal for large jathas and for pilgrims travelling a long way who want the trip to count. Fully supported end to end and priced on request around your group and hotel preferences.

Entry requirements differ by nationality and change over time — especially for Indian passport holders and the Kartarpur Corridor’s separate permit system. We check the current rules for your documents before anything is booked.

Before you go

What to bring

  • Comfortable walking shoes for uneven old-city ground
  • Sun protection in summer (hat, sunglasses, sunscreen) or warm layers in winter
  • A refillable water bottle
  • Modest clothing for mosques and shrines
  • Some cash for snacks, tips and small purchases
  • Your camera or phone, and any personal medication
  • A head covering for gurdwaras (scarves are also provided)

Dress & etiquette

Modest dress (shoulders and knees covered) is best; women need a headscarf inside mosque and gurdwara prayer halls (our guides carry spares) and shoes come off at religious sites. Please ask before photographing people. See what to wear and mosque etiquette.

Accessibility

Parts of this tour involve walking on uneven ground and some steps, and a few heritage sites have limited step-free access. We can adapt the pace and route for reduced mobility, wheelchairs, families with strollers or older travelers — tell us your needs and see our accessible Lahore tours guide.

FAQs

Is ten days too long?
Not for a major once-in-a-lifetime pilgrimage or a large jatha — the extra days remove all rush and add the lesser-known sites. Shorter options (5 or 7 days) exist if time is tight.
Is this tour private?
Yes — every tour is fully private: your own party, your own licensed guide and your own air-conditioned vehicle. Nothing is shared with strangers, and the pace flexes around you.
Do you provide hotel or airport pickup?
Yes. We collect you from your Lahore hotel or from Allama Iqbal International Airport at no extra cost within the city, and drop you back afterwards. We track your flight, so delays are no problem.
Can this tour be customized?
Absolutely. Tell us your interests, pace and any must-sees or must-avoids, and we tailor the day around you — add a food stop, swap a site, start earlier, or slow it down.
What languages do your guides speak?
English-speaking licensed guides are our standard. Italian, French, German, Japanese, Chinese, Russian and Arabic-speaking guides can be arranged on request, subject to availability.
How and when do I pay?
No payment is taken online. We confirm availability and a firm total price first; a deposit secures your dates, with the balance due before or at the start of the tour. Bank transfer, Wise, card and PayPal are accepted.
What is your cancellation policy?
Fair and flexible — exact terms are confirmed in writing when you book. See our cancellation & refund policy for details.
Is Lahore safe for tourists?
The main visitor areas are busy, welcoming and well-policed, and all our tours run with licensed guides and private drivers. See our honest safety overview and check your government’s current advisory.
What should I wear?
Modest, comfortable clothing (shoulders and knees covered); women need a headscarf inside mosque prayer halls, and our guides carry spares. Comfortable walking shoes help. See what to wear.
Can you accommodate dietary requirements?
Yes — vegetarian, halal-only (everything in Lahore is halal), mild-spice and allergy-aware options are all normal requests. Just tell us when booking.
Is this tour suitable for families and children?
Yes — we tailor the pace for families, with child seats and kid-friendly stops on request. Let us know ages and we’ll plan accordingly.
